Morning light slips between plane trees along the Tiber as a small group assembles, helmets clicked and e-bikes humming. The guide runs a quick battery and brake check; the city opens up ahead—wide boulevards give way to narrow lanes where ancient stones meet modern scooters. Riders coast past the Circus Maximus, feel the rise toward the Aventine, and inhale citrus from the Garden of Oranges before lining up at the Keyhole of Rome for that famous framed view.

Bring ID and booking confirmation
Tours require a mobile ticket and sometimes age/weight info for e-bike fitting; have documents handy for a smooth start.
