Since years we have been doing four different bicycle tours which every year thousands of people book. Biking Rome is seeing a lot in a short time, is fun and fairly cheap. You don´t have to steal a bike, as in the Oscar winning Movie ´Bicycle Thief´. We got the best equipment for you.
Choose the tour which suites you the best.
Translation - English Rolling through Rome on a bike is a blast. Sure, the city isn’t flat like Amsterdam or filled with bike lanes like Beijing but it’s surprisingly well-suited for two-wheeled transit. Ride through the city’s thousands of quaint alleyways. Scale hills that offer fantastic views before zooming down.
For years, we’ve offered four different bicycle tours that have proven popular with thousands of visitors. Biking in Rome is a fun, inexpensive and healthy way to see many sights in a short period of time. You don´t even have to steal a bike as in the Academy Award-winning Italian neorealist film, “The Bicycle Thief”. We’ve got you covered with top-notch biking equipment. Choose the tour best suited for you. .

Translation - English In a nutshell, this is the straightforward history of XXXX School from the point of view of someone who lived and worked at the school. For 35 years beginning on the day the school was founded, I worked honestly and meticulously and dedicated myself to this institution. I lived through the school’s relocations and the arrival and departure of many heads of school, teachers, students, and famous and not-so-famous personalities. Above all, I raised my own family as part of the XXXX family.

In particular, I have created the English-language versions of many websites and press releases for the food and wine, tourism and design sectors. The knowledge I've gained from years of covering these sectors as a journalist allows me to translate text quickly and accurately.
I also am a veteran voiceover artist. I have acted in videogames and radio advertisments, voiced documentary videos used by major Roman tourist attractions, and served as the voice behind countless phone message services. I have years of experience behind the microphone as a public radio presenter and reporter. My voice is low and warm but authoritative with an American accent. Samples available upon request.
I received a bachelor of arts degree from the University of Pennsylvania. I also have a master of science degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. I studied Italian at the University of California - San Diego and in private schools in Rome.
