Exactly the right kind of tour! - Giacomo, our tour guide knows bikes, knows Milan, and gave us a tour that we could have never seen on our own, on a big bus or on a walking tour.
He was waiting for us to arrive and it was easy to find. He keeps his tours small--in fact, it was only me and my husband--so he can ride at a good pace and talk to everyone while keeping things moving. He has a good sense of humor and answered some of my silly tourist questions. Also, it was a great value. You will love this experience!

Well-designed tour for urban cycling enthusiasts - We spent a fantastic almost-4 hours of cycling around Milan in the company of Giacomo! My partner and I had booked the experience privately, which meant we could easily maneuver around, cover even more ground and even had time for a coffee stop! Giacomo is super friendly, easy to talk with, and of course, a great guide! Stops were planned strategically along our route for him to share historical facts, personal anecdotes, and cultural insight--a well-balanced mix. After getting a good idea and overview of the city, Giacomo left us with a list of personalized suggestions for the remainder of our stay. If you enjoy urban cycling, Giacomo's tour is the perfect way to familiarize yourself with Milan early on in your visit. We thoroughly enjoyed his authentic and small-scale approach!

Great way to see the city - This was a really fun experience with a wonderful guide. Very informal and personal, it felt like being shown around by a local friend. It was a great way to get a sense of the whole city and plan which attractions to visit later, so I'd especially recommend it early in a visit to Milan. Definitely requires being comfortable biking in an urban environment, but with frequent stops to see sights it was not at all strenuous - the tour lasted about 4 hours and I wasn't tired at all at the end. Highly recommended.

AMAZING TOUR - This bike tour was so much fun! We got to see the city, spend time outside, and learn about its history. The tour guide knew so much and could tailor your visit to what you’d like to see and cared a lot about the city. Unforgettable experience, 100% recommend!

A great tour of the sites and neighborhoods of Milan - Giacomo led us on a fantastic small group bike tour of Milan. It was well-paced, informative, and we saw neighborhoods, historic sites and locations of tourist interest that we would not have seen otherwise.
A couple of notes for the participant, the meeting point is a Piazza with no signs for the tour, but the guide will arrive, the bikes are in the parking garage. Water bottles are no longer provided as part of the tour.

The perfect complement - I partook in a walking tour the day before which gave time at the main old town attractions and this was the perfect complement proving a wonderful overview of the diversity within Milano. My guide Stefano clearly loves and knows his city. Note however that the crowds and roads are such that one can better enjoy this experience if they are a confident cycle rider

Enjoyable experience - Enjoyable ride around the city with Giacomo. The ride was easy because of the flat terrain. However, parts of the tour go through busy roads. Giacomo shared a lot of trivia and local knowledge about different places throughout the ride, which enhanced the experience. Would recommend!

Don’t miss out on this one - Giacomo was simply incredible. We couldn’t suggest this tour enough. My wife is not the most comfortable person on a bike but she was able to do well on this tour. This was by far the best bike tour we’ve done and a highlight of our trip.

Outstanding - Allride deserves much more attention and publicity then they have right now
Maybe because they are a smaller local group that are not backed by one of the national tour operators they don’t have as much publicity as the others
Our tour was relatively small. We were a group of four and our tour guide was Stefano
Stefano was born in Milan and grew up in the city and knows it in and out
I don’t know if he is a guided tour, but he is not an art historian
And that’s not what I expected from such a tour
He is a local who knows the history of the city as well as current events, politics and culture
In three hours we baked about 15 and were able to taste of all the city has to offer from the more modern business district to the city centre shopping in high fashion local neighbourhood and markets
Our guide told us stories that were both personal as well as historic and touched on many current events
Stefano was really outstanding and deserves all the praise
