We enjoyed Florence, but found it very touristy (late June). The lazy Sunday bike tour with Per and Melissa was the perfect antidote. The weather forecast was grim, so we were the only two on the trip - bonus as it turned out to be perfect cycling weather. The scenery was lovely and the route was just right. It was... more

This was a lovely guided bike ride out in the countryside close to Florence,. We were able to progress at our own pace with plenty of stops on the way to admire the scenery and allow the slower ones to catch up. On arrival at the Tuscan villa we cooled off in the swimming pool before enjoying a relaxing lunch... more

We both really enjoyed the trip, lunch was great, nice swim in the pool and Pers and Melissa are really friendly people. Good to experience both Florence town and some Tuscan fresh air. more

Our family of five chose the relaxing Sunday ride with Per's Bike Rides. We had traveled a long way, sitting and cramped. It was nice to do something physical, but not difficult. Sadly, it rained (poured) on us. Three of us chose to ride in the van provided, while the others chose to brave the weather. Make sure to bring... more

My husband and I spent two weeks in Italy and Per's Lazy Sunday Downhill tour was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The sites were beautiful, the ride was easy and the lunch was delicious. Per and Melissa were great guides - we were sad when the ride was over, but we have plenty of pictures to remember... more

Views are amazing, lunch was one of the BEST I had in Italy. PROS -great views -exercise -Guides (Per and Melissa) are easy going, and very... more

First off, Per (pronounced like the fruit pear)and Melissa were super sweet and cool! I can confidently say that Per's Bike Tour was the best part of my trip to Italy. The day starts at 9:30 am and each participant is given a cool water bottle (which you get to keep as a souvenir), a bike (with a unique name),... more

In May 2009 I treated my mum to a holiday in Florence. To add a special dimension to our city break I wanted to book a wine tasting. Not one for mass tourism I was pleasantly surprised to find Per's Bike Rides online. Following a very friendly and informative email exchange I booked the all day cycle tour which included... more

Great change of pace from site seeing and enjoying the restaurants. I thought it was expensive when I heard the price, but looking back it seemed well worth it. It also includes a very nice meal. (worth about 20 euro??) One of my favorite memories from the trip. It was a tough bike ride but they give you plenty of... more
