Leave central Rome behind on a full-suspension CUBE e-bike, riding ancient cobbles and country paths along the Appian Way to the Villa of Maxentius, Cecilia Metella, catacombs, and the Aqueducts Park. Guides such as Iman, Silvia, Bruno, and Felipe lead small or private groups in four languages.

“Our tour was great, thanks to our guide Adriana. She was very professional, informative and took good care of all our needs. A very confident, trustworthy, friendly, "no nonsense" -guide. And she knew exactly how to get to our 13 year old son who really had the time of his life. Bikes were good. The tour was somewhat expensive but worth it. Best regards to Adriana!”
