The best way to ride in Florence and surrounding hills? With a vintage "motocarrozzetta" (motorcycle sidecar), no doubt. It's the only way to experience the Oltrarno area, Michelangelo square and terrace, San Miniato church and hills behind it, including Arcetri where Galileo Galilei spent his last years in Florence.
Perfect to take videos and pictures of the hidden corners of the city and from the panoramic points. Much more comfortable and safe than a scooter, enjoying the breeze not being in a car or minivan!
The best way to catch both sides of the city: it's old districts (i.e. San Niccolò, the bohemian one...) and the countryside landscape around it.
Our personal suggestion is to book it for your first day in Florence, so to have a complete introduction to it...
VERY IMPORTANT: please remember that we ride old vintage motorcycles sidecar and we might refuse bookings due to weight limit.

This was a lot of fun. Tomas was an excellent guide and showed us so many historical sites. The description of the tour on the website and the actual tour were different but we still were very pleased with this tour. I highly recommend it.

An awesome adventure! It was so much fun to see the area in and around Florence while riding in the sidecar of a Ural motorcycle. Gilberto was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and personable. The itinerary was great, allowing me to see the city from the hills above the city for some spectacular photos. Gilberto showed me the real countryside outside of the city and I learned a lot about the local agriculture, as well as the history of the city and its important landmarks.
The company was so good to work with, communication was easy and straightforward. When my arrival into the city was delayed they worked with me to adjust to my schedule. I really appreciated it! When I come back to Florence I am doing this tour again!
