Are the tours safe? The answer is: Absolutely! The tours follow carefully planned routes which have limited access to traffic, and some have no traffic at all, meaning you are able to enjoy your ride around the city in total relaxation and safety and you won't have to worry about traffic.

Important notes
The tour you booked has a distinct itinerary for MORNING departures and a distinct itinerary for AFTERNOON departures. Each of these itineraries has been designed in the interest of the best possible experience of discovering Rome on a bike, and it especially takes into account the differences in pedestrian crowding in the city in different times of the day.
For this reason, the AFTERNOON itinerary visits the Circus Maximus, the Garden of Oranges and the Trastevere neighborhood instead of the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps and the Villa Borghese Gardens (which are included in the MORNING itinerary).
Electric-assisted bikes are available for adults and children above the age of 9.
