Tuscany Bicycle is conveniently located in Gaiole in Chianti, with easy on-site parking, just slightly outside the centre of town.
Our travel company had been a little vague as... read more to quite what our e-bike tour would entail, however Elizabeth soon put us at our ease. We were introduced to the e-bikes and their ease of operation and after a short familiarisation around the car park we were on our way.
Elizabeth explained our route would be around 50km (!) and would take in the fabulous Tuscan countryside, a coffee stop, lunch and wine-tasting.
The e-bikes were a dream to ride and so easy to operate, taking the effort out of the steepest of hills. We were soon high in the hills and enjoying the incredible views, at one point looking over to Siena.
Our lunch stop was at a wonderful restaurant with beautifully prepared food, followed by wine tasting at Rocca Castaglioni.
A 20min ride back to the bike shop completed our day.
Highly recommended.

  Our first experience of ebikes was a great success, thanks to Elizabeth (and the amazing Tuscan countryside).
We were well equipped and instructed and enjoyed a guided tour without the... read more stress of all those hills.
Elizabeth adapted the tour to our comfort and confidence and was a wealth of knowledge about the area.
Highly recommended.

  Fantastic experience - My wife and I, with our 19 and 21 year old daughters spent 10 days just outside of Gaiole in Chianti. While there, we did 3 different bike tours... read more and rented bikes with Elizabeth and her crew at Tuscany Bicycle. The castle tour allowed us to get the lay of the land around Gaiole. The gravel tour was tremendous and eye-opening experience--a great taste of the countless beautiful 'white roads' of Tuscany. I am already scheming my return to explore more white roads. We also did custom tour south of Gaiole. Elizabeth was a great guide who shared her love of bicycling and adjusted well according to the group. She is also a trained sommelier--a great resource in a country full of vineyards. Luca and Gabriele were fantastic at maintaining the bikes and providing support. The bikes are new and in great shape.

  Chose to ride a couple days with Tuscany Bicycle and could not have had a better time. Ricardo was absolutely amazing and the best guide we could have asked for.... read more Extremely nice, personable, knowledgeable, and really made both days amazing. We did both the Chianti Villages West tour and the Gravel Tour and thankfully had Ricardo both days.

Absolutely amazing experience from the planning stages to the rides themselves. Great communication all around and the Pinarello bikes they have are top notch (now I want SRAM etap shifters). Roads were quiet with not too many cars and again, Ricardo was awesome. Wineries and lunch spots were absolutely amazing and 1000% better than anything you will find in guide books. Highly recommend this company and wish we could take Ricardo with us on other riding adventures around the world.

  All we hoped for an more - We did the half-day Castle ride with Lucca as our guide and it was fabulous! My wife and I are intermediate road bikers and we wanted an easy ride that... read more got us out into the country side and experiencing Tuscany. This ride was better than we hoped. It was beautiful. It was moderately easy. The views, the wine tasting, the entire experience was all that we imagined. We would encourage anyone to do this ride.

We hired racing bikes,... read more gravel bikes and e-bikes, the roads in the Gaiole area are amazing, nice, soft hills and with a great panorama. Thank you Tuscany Bicycle, we shall be back!

Excellent service guys!

Highly recommended

  What a wonderful day - the highlight of our trip so far! We arranged for a bike wine tour. The booking process was easy and they provided fast... read more and complete information. The staff speaks fluent English. The bikes were new graphite gravel bikes - top end equipment. The ride was perfect - ride 10k, stop for cappuccino and pastries. Ride 3-4k and stop for photos and a wine tasting. 5k to a long leisurely Italian lunch overlooking a winery.then another tasting and back to the shop. We had a private tour so controlled the pace and the stops. We had the pleasure of having Elizabeth Miller, the owner, as our guide. Not only does Elizabeth know the bike routes (she designed them), as a sommelier, we learned more about wines than we ever expected. Do book here. They can offer customized tours if you don’t see what you like. Consider e-bikes if the hills (there are a lot in this region) worry you, or for inexperienced riders.

  Very professional and patient staff. Luca did an excellent job telling us about the. stupid sites and guiding us at a perfect speed. Wonderful scenery, delicious lunch and educational wine... read more tour/tasting. Wouldn’t change a thing.

  We had a fabulous trip (8 friends and riders from US, Australia, SA and UK met in Tuscany for five days riding and eatingand a little wine), organized expertly by... read more Elizabeth and her team of guides, David and Mark. Elizabeth’s patience and partnership in moving our trip from 2020 to 2021 and then again to 2022 to accommodate us through the pandemic with zero hassle or additional costs are testament to her professionalism and integrity. And the trip when it finally happened did not disappoint one bit! Excellent riding, wonderful accommodations and Tuscan food every day to dream of. I cannot recommend Elizabeth strongly enough.

  Easy e-Bike tour with wine tastings, lunch, and an amazing guide - We did. guided e-bike tour in the Chianti hills. Our guide, Luca, was the nicest guide you can imagine. Even though we arrived almost an hour late (traffic around Florence... read more can be slow) it was "no problem". We biked a section of the famous Eroica route, then off to a medieval castle with a winery (and the obligatory tasting). Luca was not only a great bike guide, he also knew about the history of the castle and the entire region. After a few more up and downhills, we had a late lunch (amazing pasta) and another wine tasting. On the final stretch home, it started raining, and Luca has rain capes for each of us ready. This bike tour, even if it was not very physically challenging, could not have been better!

  Elisabeth took me along for many scenic and fascinating biking tours through the soft Chianti hills. The Pinarello bikes are light and great to ride.
Elisabeth is an excellent sommelier... read more with an outstanding competence in the Tuscan wines which made the tours unforgettable. We visited several wine producers & enotecas on our biking trips. The combination of biking and tasting selected wines of specific wineries together with a sommelier is unique ! We have learned about the most beautiful places in the Chianti, but also about the excellent qualitiy of Chianti wines, realizing I have neglected them in the past years. Elisabeth is very well connected in this beautiful area and recommended us many excellent restaurants or other tours in the cities. Thus, there are many reasons to come back ! I can highly recommend Elisabeth, Tuscany Bicycle!

  Have just spent a week in Tuscany with friends. Some of them where spent riding the hills around San Pancrazio. Thanks to Gina, Elisabeth and Enrico of Tuscany Bicycle... read more for making that possible. Excellent service, excellent bikes and very fast, trusting and friendly communication.

  Amazing bikes. Got a Pinarello F12. Stunning. Service was great. Collection and delivery to the hotel. Highly recommended it!

  Tuscany Bicycle was absolutely sensational! They brought our bikes to the villa where we were staying and after 4 glorious days of road riding, changed them out for our final... read more couple of days of gravel. When, in the midst of a ride we had a mechanical problem, they sent a mechanic to remedy the problem and keep us rolling. We will definitely engage them again when next we return to Tuscany.

  The highlight of our trip to Tuscany was the eBike tour with Tuscany Bicycle. We were fortunate to have Elizabeth to ourselves as she guided us through the Tuscan countryside.... read more Her knowledge of the local area is amazing. Before departing, she gave us different options of where to ride. She will customize a program which is really unique for a tour operator. If you decide to ride in Tuscany, which you should, look no further than Tuscany Bicycle. Top quality bikes and helmets were provided. A real top-notch touring business!

  Great company, awesome bike! - Hired a carbon road bike for 2 days. Great email contact with Siena who was able to get the right bike for me. My flight was delayed so they were... read more also able to arrange a hotel drop off for me as I was staying locally. Drop off was easy too. Had two great days on the bike! Thank You!!!

They connected me with My guide, Mark, that... read more put together an amazing day of gravel riding on the L’Eroica route and some Strade Bianchi sections.

  We spent 10 days in the Tuscany area but the day we toured Chianti with Elizabeth, was by far our favorite day. She took us to two stunningly beautiful wineries... read more where she shared her own knowledge of wine, which was extensive and so very helpful. She customized the tour for us, was great company, and kept us safe. She knew the people at the wineries very well and was clearly respected by them all. We will definitely be back for more with this company!

  I am just back from a terrific five days riding in and around Florence and Siena.
Everything worked very well from my side and Elizabeth and the whole team... read more were very good.
I enjoyed riding the bikes loaned and David and Mark did a fine job of guiding as well as adapting route’s to fit the circumstances and riders. Gabriel, was a reassuring back up.
Think it might have been advisable to have either suggested avoiding Strada Bianci routes or to have offered a change of bikes or at least tyres that were more suited for purpose for that day.
Other than that, excellent and thank you.

  My husband and I choose the Castle Ride and we were not disappointed. Elizabeth is a great guide and a lovely person. She took us on a pleasant ride that... read more ended with a delicious wine and oil tasting. Totally recommended 🙂

  A “must” when in Tuscany - This was one of our best days of an amazing trip to Italy. Elizabeth and Rafaele took us on an e-bike ride up to a castle and on to a... read more wonderful lunch and wine tasting. They were both warm and incredibly knowledgeable about the region, cycling and wine. For flatlanders like us, the e-bikes were a must on the steeper grades.
