Guido, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and professional as we made out e-scooter journey throughout the city. Admittedly, driving through the crowds was a bit scary but we made it through just fine. Would highly recommend!!!

The "E-Scooter: Panoramic tour of Florence" was a highlight of my weekend trip to Florence. My two friends and I were treated to essentially a private tour of the city's streets and famous spots, culminating in a guided tour to the top of a hill overlooking the entire city and surrounding areas. The highlight was definitely seeing the Basilica, the 4th largest in the world, from this vantage point - a sight that truly took our breath away.
Lasting around 2 hours, the tour included several stops where we had free time to explore on our own. The scooters were well-maintained and provided a fun and efficient way to navigate the city.
Our guide, Brian, was fantastic. He was friendly, spoke great English, and knew all the best spots to visit. He made sure to check in on us throughout the tour, ensuring that we were having a great time.
Overall, this tour is a must-do if you're in Florence for the weekend. It offers a unique perspective of the city and is well worth the money. I highly recommend it.

This was a great experience and fun way to see many of the main attractions around Florence city. The E-Scooters were a lot of fun and Poalo was an excellent tour guide. A very knowledgeable local with obvious passion for his marvelous city.
Would recommend this tour without hesitation.

Well organized and planned tour. Fat Tire Tours did a great job across the board, with clear instructions prior, organized setup at the outset, and a great tour and guide provided. Our guide was very friendly, entertaining, and also was good at keeping us safe on the tour and scooters. I wish I could remember his name, it may have been Andrea after looking at the site? This was my first time in Florence and I found the planned path to be busy, but very safe. Traffic was a concern of mine before we attended. Well worth it, you get a great feel for the city overall, and discuss the important areas with great views.

Excellent guide, very knowledgeable! Scooters were comfortable and easy to use. Be prepared for some bumpy rides on the cobblestone streets of Florence. Fun way to see and learn about some of the major sites in the city.

Our guide, Marza (Marsha) was great and very knowledgeable. Provided great insight, recommendations and some cool modern info that we did not get anywhere else. Downtown was way too crowded so she pivoted and took us to another area with a great view.

We had an excellent tour with Andrea. We booked a scooter tour but unfortunately my teenage daughter is quite anxious so didn’t want to use the scooter. He was so so kind and patient with her and suggested that we took bikes instead. This meant he worked later than he should have and changed the tour to allow for the bikes. After a stressful start (our fault) we had a beautiful tour. Loved cycling around the city in the early evening and we even had time to stop for a glass of wine in the magical Piazza Santa Croce at dusk. Very knowledgeable and the patience of a saint!
