Fantastic way to explore Turin with a super knowledgeable friendly guide in Francesco. We are a family of 5 with kids from age 11 to 16 years and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
- great experience - Francesco was a great guide. Good explanation in English. I’ve been on this tour before 6 years ago and both the bikes and the tour have improved significantly. - Turin is a great city for cycling - Francesco even made sure that we would ride in the shade since it was very hot
Francesco was a great tour guide! He was engaging, knowledgeable and focused on ensuring we had the best experience possible!! You don’t have to be a great biker to enjoy or experience this tour. Francesco will go at your pace. Greatly enjoyed our time with him
A fun bike ride and a great way to see the city. Our guide (Guilia, I think) gave us lots of interesting info about the places we visited. All in all, a great way of exploring a city.
A wonderful tour with a welcoming and very knowledgeable guide - the exact amount for knowing how the beautiful city of Turin is built and how to plan your trip in it
The guide knew a lot about Torino and the history. The tour was nice and complete with a lot of suggestions for further discovery. But we booked a 3,5 tour with viator and when we arrived at the meetingpoint it was a mixed tour with Baja Bikes for 3 hours. No negative effect on the tour but we were not informed after booking.
Great gentle paced relaxing bike tour of Turin with a great characterful and engaging guide. Lovely way to see the city. Great bikes, easy to peddle. Highly recommend. Better than sitting on a boring tour bus; feel the wind in your hair and sun on face. Ride baby ride!
An excellent bike tour and very much recommended to everyone who wants to explore Torino by bike to see all the great sights in a short time. The tour guide showed us all the great spots there were. The bikes were a bit old and didn‘t had any gears, but other than that it was great! Grazie tutti from Germany! :)
Marco was an excellent, knowledgeable guide and this was a lovely, fun way to explore the city. Also a great way to work out how to spend the rest of my time in Torino!
Guilia was excellent- super knowledgeable, great personality and was able to keep the group moving without feeling rushed. Biking allows one to see much more of the city in a short period of time and get a sense of what to go back and explore. Highly recommend!
