Tuscany - Pisa & Florence Tour Reviews — 1 to 5 of 5

This trip was fantastic. The bikes were top notch and the luggage transfer went perfectly. We enjoyed the scenery and the out of the way routes, although some of the trails could have used grass trimming.

Beautiful scenery
Staying at the Silla Hotel in Florence was a highlight of the tour. I’m glad I had an extra day to spend in Florence

The downhills through the vineyards. Lucca was amazing. Riding through Pinocchio country and DaVincis birth place were great. Florence and seeing Michaelangelos David. Riding was perfect . The climbs were hard but doable

The secondary roads and the fabulous landscapes

I took this Tuscany III tour in June 2012. It was a trip I will fondly remember forever!

Tripsite and the local Italian tour organizer, Girolibero, provided excellent support from booking, to the tour itself. I was fully informed with information about the routes, hotel accommodations, what will be provided, and what I need to bring. There were no surprises!!

I always felt safe and comfortable every day of riding. We were taken along the backroads of Tuscany, away from heavily travelled areas. The beauty of the rural scenery, and charm of the medieval villages and towns, were exactly what I had hoped for.

The hotels were first rate - clean, comfortable and most providing a/c and free WiFi. The breakfasts provided a wide selection of food, something for everyone's taste.

There were two things that would have made this tour even more enjoyable for me. One, is the bicycle seat. It was a wide, soft, gel seat. Contrary to what would be expected, it gave me saddle sores. I wish I had taken from hard, leather saddle from my own bike.

The second disappointment was that the group of thirteen never rode together. Being on my own, I sought the company of others because I didn't want to cycle alone. This was never a problem, but nonetheless, I was expecting there to be group riding. Perhaps that would be addressed with a guided tour.

All in all, I was very happy with the tour and the wonderful introduction to Italy and the beautiful region of Tuscany!

Thank you Tripsite and Girolibero for a fabulous experience!!
