Amazing trip, highly recommend
· Tuscany Getaway: 4 Nights in Siena, Montalcino & Pienza
My brother wanted to do a bike trip for his 50th birthday. After months of research I finally landed on this itinerary and I am so glad we did it! Leading up to the trip bike tours staff was very responsive. The info they sent took awhile and wasn’t tailored to our trip, but they make up for that by answering all questions promptly and without making you feel like a burden!! We had some last minute changes they were very accommodating with as well. The local tour company was wonderful! They were very patient with all of our anxieties and questions. We had never done a trip like this and in a foreign country self guided was intimidating. They broke it down for us and it was amazing. The routes they gave us were stunning and we only made a few quick wrong turns. GPS app they use was helpful and easy to use and follow. We were directed to a different hotel than the one we were staying at twice which was a bit annoying but once we found our place it was lovely and so nice to jump in a cold pool after a hot long ride. Their lunch and dinner recs were delicious! And the one time we had an issue where our bike lock wouldn’t unlock they came out to our remote spot and helped! It’s such a magical place to experience by bike! They never made us feel like a burden and were so professional, accommodating and supportive. I highly recommend this trip. It’s totally worth the price.

Save some energy
· Florence to Rome
It’s not that hills are so big, it is that the grade of some of them is intense. We didn’t upgrade the bike and did ok but a lighter bike would have been nice on this trip. Save some energy for the end of each day when cultural treasures will call out to be explored. The hotels were each unique. We highly recommend the tour.

Well organized, fantastic trip
· Florence to Rome
We really enjoyed this self guided bike tour. The trip was very well organized, and the support was excellent. The app is a great way to easily stay on the correct route. The biking was great - scenic, and the right amount of miles/elevation per day to make it seem like a good solid bike ride while leaving enough energy to explore the really interesting towns along the way.

What a great trip we had! Biking through Tuscany was truly the experience of a lifetime. Although the weather wasn’t great, the accommodations that were provided, along with the bikes and equipment were 5-stars.

Great tour
· Tuscany Getaway: 4 Nights in Siena, Montalcino & Pienza
Despite two days of intermittent fog/clouds/rain, we loved this tour. The bikes and equipment were perfect. The tour operator, Cicloposse, was efficient, responsive, flexible. The hotels were quite good including lovely breakfasts. The routes were wonderful, so many interesting and beautiful places to see, and even though we were on roads, we felt safe.

An Italian Adventure!
· Tuscany and Umbria: Cycling in the Heart of Italy
Wow! What an incredible experience. We loved exploring the countryside and smaller towns of Italy and soaking in the local culture. Make sure you have spent time training as the biking is challenging, but well worth it. The app for the routes was easy to use and follow and the bikes we rented were high quality.

Trip of my Wife's dreams
· Tuscany Getaway: 4 Nights in Siena, Montalcino & Pienza
My wife had dreamed of a Tuscany bike ride, so we decided the time was right. We setup our contract with road bikes. We are used to rode bikes and have never tried eBikes. Our Tour Advisor, Inshaaf Anderson, suggested we consider eBikes due to the hilly Tuscan terrain. Unfortunately, we stayed with the road bikes. The Tuscan hills are long uphill and fast downhill. After our 1st day we were having second thoughts about eBikes. Day 2 included Montepulciano and the most challenging 34 miles of our lives. After reviewing the Day 3 ride to Montalcino we wished we had listened to Inshaaf. We were able to contact and exchange our bikes. Another unfortunately, we had nothing left once we arrived in Montalcino. We made arrangements with Cycloposse to exchange us for the bikes and rode to Siena. A special thanks to Enrico and Panos for their support and compassion. Even though we didn’t complete the tour, we saw some wonderful country and met many wonderful Italians. We enjoyed the hotels very much and had no concerns about the safety of the bikes. A special thanks to Inshaaf, Kate and Taylor for their support during the entire process. Thank you, Bryce and Elizabeth

great trip
· Tuscany's Legendary Gravel Routes
Good food, spectacular hotels, and beautiful scenery. They're based near Pienza. Juliana and Marko from the tour operator, in addition to booking the hotels, provided first class bikes, good routes, excellent navigation, and attentive service.
