The ability to guide ourselves through a tour with an exceptional mobile application making sure we didn't get lost...
The ability to guide ourselves through a tour with an exceptional mobile application making sure we didn't get lost was amazing! My wife and I generally prefer to not do guided tours, so we can decide what we want to see. Having the option with this company to do that AND have our luggage ported and lodging taken care of in one price was one of the major highlights of our time in Italy. It was a very stress free experience that let us just enjoy the countryside by bike. We had some maintenance issues on a couple of the days, but the bike rental company handled it before we left on our next leg of the trip every time! We definitely plan to do this kind of cycling trip in the future all thanks to this experience!Show more
