Tours

The most picturesque and scenic climbs around Florence with the eye of a sport photographer

by Alessandro Salvaggio

In occasion of the grand depart of the Tour the France from Florence, I will take you on a guided bike tour around the hills. Cycling in this part of the region is indeed very special

We will tackle the most scenic and picturesque little climbs just outside Florence, finishing the ride on the most iconic square of the city, the real balcony to the Renaissance. We will see incredible villas, twisty roads and lines of cypresses, and we will be able to stop at the museum in memory of the local legend Gino Bartali

You will be guided by me, Alessandro, a certified tour guide (guida ambientale escursionista) and professional sport photographer. With my camera and my experience of the area I will try to show you some of the lookout to the best city in the world, with the eye of a local.

I will be handling a digital photographic booklet from the ride to you, in order to make it even more special.
