Take 2 on reviewing E-Bikes Florence. My first review was rejected by TripAdvisor due to me inadvertently writing a duplicate review under my gmail login (now deleted).
Jon, owner of E-Bikes Florence is a great guy. He's friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. Jon was very accommodating to our large group of 12 from Wisconsin. He provided us with an interactive presentation regarding the route, assisting some of the "technologically challenged" in our group with the downloading of the Maps.ME app/maps. His bikes are well maintained and top quality.
The scenery on the route is spectacular. We stopped in the small town of Fiesole for some refreshments in the town square. I highly recommend a bottle of Birra Moretti from the food cart. For those who want a challenge take a ride up to the convent.
Our second stop was at the Fattoria DI Poggiopiano vineyard. We took an hour break to drink a few bottles of wine and eat some delicious snacks.
The E-Bikes create a very comfortable, easy ride. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is moderately fit.
The trip back into Florence was simple to navigate, but you do need to watch cross traffic as you cross streets back to the bike shop.
Thank you Jon for a fabulous tour of Tuscany!
