Milan 22

Jo_T, Nov 2022

Our guide was lovey- Very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a lovely 3hrs and 20 mins cycle and she gave us lots of further advice and tips to enhance the rest of out trip. Definitely worthwhile

Great tour

kathy_k, Nov 2022

Great tour. Saw many places including the cemetery, financial center, old town and the arch. Overall we were able to stay on bike paths for the majority of the time. Little surprised we didn’t wear helmets or receive instruction on rode safety, dealing with cars/pedestrians/scooters. It’s always confusing in a different country who has the right of way. Think we rode about 9 miles with frequent breaks

Relaxing bike ride through Milan

Kevin_W, Oct 2022

Wonderful way to explore Milan outside of the main area with the Duomo etc. one of the best parts of our trip.

Tess_B, Sep 2022

It was unexpectedly enjoyable. Our first bike tour….ever. Pollina (and staff) were very kind and friendly. Very informative tour and shared us things we never would’ve known if we did toured around ourselves! Do it!

Highly recommended

Riela_A, Aug 2022

Absolutely adore this tour. Our guide was super sweet and made conversations with everyone. Biking around made the experience exciting because you aren’t walking around. You’re able to see a decent amount of the attractions. We had a snack break in between.

Relaxed tour

We got to see areas of Milan we weren’t expecting, the guide was knowledgeable, the pace of the ride was just right with lots of stops and a very good cafe break.

Amazing Bike Tour

Lance_R, Mar 2022

Polina was an excellent guide and we learned a lot of Milano history. Love seeing the city up close. We saw so many areas that we just would have missed otherwise. Highly recommend!

Birthday Bike Tour

RITA_P, Mar 2019

We had such a nice time with Pauline. She took us everywhere! It was a nice day in the morning, she told us a lot of history also which was helpful. This was the best! We will do this again!

Great Ride - Great Value!

Claudia D, Jul 2018

Milan is simply a beautiful city when you see it on a bike. Our guide was excellent! The terrain is mostly flat and lush green towering trees were a sight to behold. We enjoyed the city at a mellow pace and saw things that we would have otherwise missed had we just done the typical tourist routine. Our guide was well acquainted with her city and shared her information and stories with us. This Tour itself is a treasure - don't hesitate. We're senior citizens who were able to keep up with our fellow cyclists who were in their 20's & 30's.

WaiMan_L, Feb 2018

An interesting and unique way to travel Milan. It's fun to ride across the castle, main road and pedestrian zone with bike. Our guide, Polina, is a caring and knowledgeable guide who not only shown us around the city, but briefed us on the history and special points of interest. Not only adults but even my 13-year old boys found it interesting to know and see the city from different perspective. Highly recommended for family who like something special.

Kym F, Sep 2017

One of the best things to do early in a visit to a city. The MIlan bike tour was great, it went for over 4 hrs, and provided a great overview of the city highlights, which allowed us to plan out our visits for the next two days, and we knew where to go to find the places we wanted to visit

Despite the hot weather, Polina...

Kelly R, Aug 2017

Despite the hot weather, Polina, made the tour enjoyable. Our only complaint was that we were expecting a planned stop for a needed gelato

Roy_C, Sep 2016

What a great choice this was! Our tour leader was so helpful and informative. By doing this activity early in our visit to Milan, we got an excellent overview of the layout and historical ties between different parts of the city. She pointed out so many interesting sights along the way, and discussed with us why they were so important. We would recommend this tour wholeheartedly.
