“What a lovely evening in Rome. Our tour consisted of 5 stops all within a short walking distance of each other and it was just an amazing experience full of not only great food, but great sights as well. Our tour consisted of a couple spots for starters, a pizza stop, a pasta stop and then of course a stop for gelato. In between each stop, we got to learn a little bit about the area of the city we were walking in. I was very impressed by not only the amount of Italian food knowledge our tour guide had, but her overall knowledge of Rome as well. Of course…”

See Rome’s Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, and more by Cannondale e-bike at night, with an optional trattoria dinner.
“The bike tour was amazing. Our guide was great. She did not make us feel rushed. The bikes are kept in good working order. The dinner was not worth it. It felt like we were treated second class at the restaurant. Not a single person at our table finished the pasta dinner they served. It was obviously rushed to be plated and too salty.”
Pick a ruin, a gallery or a kitchen.
