Reviews for Ancient Appian Way And Roman Countryside E-bike Tour
Beautifully picturesque countryside ebike ride in Rome
Ruari_M
What a wonderfully beautiful, pastoral and peaceful end to 3 days in Rome. Marta took us by many Roman antiquities in Rome and along the entracingly lovely Appian Way and explaned their history, ending up at a natural spring still providing water to Romans. We thoroughly enjoyed it!
Worth it!

Really cool tour. E-bike was very useful for me. It's not very hilly, but the terrain is so rough, it was actually a little hard to steer and pedal at the same time, so the electric bike kept my forward momentum. Our guide was very knowledgeable, but it got uncomfortable when his rhetoric slid into antisemitic territory. It was also a very long tour. We had several breaks for water, but we didn't have snacks, which I would recommend. Great way to cover a lot of historic ground.
All roads lead to Rome - the literal experience

Martin is a very great tour guide. Very knowledgeable in the realm of arts and history. The tour itself is breathtaking. From majestic views of the aqueducts to the Appian ruins along the ancient trail makes the experience immersive. It’s unfortunate that the catacombs were closed that day. But the rest of the experience is really worth it. Definitely will do it again in the future!
We started late due to some minor miscommunication, but the operator patiently waited for us.
Amazing guide and special tour!

Mario and Maurizio are amazing and rally kind ! The tour was a great value and we had a really good moment !
We got upgraded to electric bikes and had the chance to choose a typical tour instead of a classic monument tour and it was really worth it !
I recommend theses guys a lot !
This is not a leisurely bike ride-and should not be described as such

The scenery was great and we did enjoy the trip for the most part. We do have issues as to how the trip is described on Viator. The 20 mile distance was not disclosed nor that they were e-bikes and we would be charged an extra 15 for our bikes. And you should disclose that you will riding up rocky hills.
