My daughter and I had a great time. Both guides were very good. Process was easy and both tours went without a hitch. Gelato towards the end of the bike tour was a nice touch. We were going to do the walking tour luckily it was sold out as we were both very happy we did the bike tour instead. And of course seeing the statue of David with a description was very nice. The audio headsets worked great on both tours and make a huge difference.

We had a short stay in Florence, so this was the perfect way to see and learn a lot about the city’s most important highlights in a relatively short amount of time. Our guides for both were welcoming and knowledgeable, I learned a lot from them both. Highly recommend!

We bought this combo tour package on our first trip to Florence. The bike tour was great and hits all the major spots around the city and provides historical facts about the various sites. Our guide Sara was a lot of fun. Biking was easy, other than the heat, since Florence city center is relatively flat but it can be somewhat chaotic with the mix of pedestrian, bike and car traffic. The bike tour lasted about 2.5 hours and ended with gelato (included). The accedemia gallery tour was about 30 minutes after and lasted about 1.5 hours. 1.5 hours was the perfect amount of time there unless you want to see every item and read every word of every plaque. SKIP THE LINE! It is absolutely worth an extra fee dollars to avoid hours in line and to have a guide. We looked at some of the lesser known items in the gallery and of course had plenty of time with the David, which unlike other famous pieces of art lives up to the hype. The tour ends in the gallery so you can stay longer if you want but we say mostly everything in that time. Highly recommended.

Do not even think about a bike tour in Florence. This should be called it a walk your bike tour. Never road the bike for more than 100 yards befor having to stop. Just too many people in Florence. Save your money, take a walking tour. Skip the line Accademia Gallery Tour was very good. Worth it, so you do not have to spend 1/2 day in line

Our Guides Fabio and Francesca W RE were amazing. The bike tour was perfect and Fabio led us by the highlights of Florence and we biked like native Italians through the crowds :-). Good storytelling also, well informed.
Francesca did perfectly show us some beautiful pieces of art culture and at the Galleria Academia. She understood very well to explain all the historic backgrounds with a personal touch.
We can only highly recommend FlorenceTown and ask for Fabio and Francesca.

The ihighlight of this was really the bike tour. From the Piazza della Repubblica to the Ponte Vecchio and the Duomo we crisscrossed the city learning alng the way. A great intro to Florence. Our guide was wonderful and the group was just the right size. The stop for gelato outside the Pitti Palace was the icing on the cake. Great stories and it gave us the lay of the land to figure out what we wanted to do next. I suggest you do this first thing!!

This tour was well worth it. Our guide was very knowledgeable and very friendly. The problem is, you really can't ride a bike in Florence. The streets are too narrow and the crazed motor cycle riders make it very dangerous.

Great tour for whole family. Valentina was a wonderful guide and full of knowledge. Will book more tours via Viator- never disappointed!

The bike tour itself was fun and the entire group passed by some interesting structures and our tour guide gave us several tips for good and reasonable restaurants.
The Accademia tour was disappointing. I felt that I could have learned more from a guide book.
The group wasn't allowed to explore the Gallery.
The gelato given at the end of the tour was a sample--4 bites.
