Alessio was our guide, and he took us through Rome to the old Appian Way and the aqueducts. He was very knowledgeable, clearly enjoyed his job, and provided a truly excellent bike tour that was the best part of our four-day stay in the city. A highly recommended experience for those interested in seeing a bit more of Rome, especially historical areas in the outskirts that seem best accessed by bike. The motorized bikes were a great benefit. They were easy to operate, and they definitely helped us out during a four-hour tour.

Despite a late start due to some inconsiderate people who arrived late our tour guide was great. The views of the Aquaduct and Catacombs and Appian way are very picturesque. The guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating. NB. It’s a fairly long ride and would be tough for pre teenage children or anyone unfit or elderly in my opinion.

Noam expertly navigated us through many paths that weren’t busy street. But when we were on busier streets, I felt safe. The Apian way was beautiful and the e-bikes made it very enjoyable. The E-bikes made every hill fell like flat ground. All three teens enjoyed it! The stop at the Aquaducs was the most open,beautiful, green lush space to roam around and take pictures. We would love to do again. My husband’s camera has the majority of the pictures, but here are few. I just enjoyed the day with my people and marveled at the beauty.
