If you're looking for a truly authentic local experience in the countryside around Florence then…read moreyou must consider Toscana by Bike. Montespertoli is an ideal location from which to embark on a variety of destinations; day trips to Vinci, San Miniato, Via Francigena, San Gimignano, Certaldo, and downtown Florence are all accessible from the shop if you're interested in a full day of riding and exploring.
Alternatively, for those looking for a shorter excursion (I would recommend at least 4 hours), the hills, castles, bakeries, wineries, and little restaurants/delis of the area in and around Montespertoli are second to none.
On top of that, if you're lucky enough to be guided by the owner, Massimo, you'll be treated to a true Toscano whose knowledge of the area, combined with his hospitality and charm, are guaranteed to deliver an unforgettable experience.
Don't miss out if you're in the area!
