Rome - Italy: a city that can be discovered by bike !

Whereas some years ago it was difficult to imagine Rome being a city suitable for bicycles, today we can confidently say that it is and it rather seems that the use of bikes is beginning to grow as a valid alternative to cars.

So what are you waiting for ?
Have a holiday by bike or come on one of our Rome bike tours or rent a bike with us !

Bicycles, in fact, can enter pedestrian areas and limited traffic areas, which constitute 50% of Rome’s centre. You can avoid the traffic and at the same time discover a whole variety of alternative roads that represent Roman atmospheres at their best and find out that Rome is one of the biggest urban historical-archaeological areas in the world! Too big to be visited on foot and often inaccessible to motor vehicles.

Bicycle technology has evolved, thus allowing cyclists to enjoy any kind of landscape with the most appropriate models (trekking bikes, mountain bikes, tandems, road bikes, etc.).
That’s why today we can undoubtedly say that: Bicycles are the ideal means of transport in Rome !

To allow you to do so, Top Bike Rental and Tours, located in the heart of Rome near the Colosseum and founded by the non-profit association: ¨In città usiamo la bici¨ (¨Let's bike in the city¨) based in Rome, provides you with:

• A vast assortment of light, safe and exciting high quality bicycles.


• The experience to take you, with our Rome bike tours, to Rome's most famous and spectacular places as well as the most unusual and secret ones. Our tours are very carefully prepared in order to avoid traffic: 80-90% of the routes are therefore closed to traffic or with limited traffic.


• Group bike holidays in Rome and bike trips outside Rome to let you discover, in just a few days, all of Rome by bike with us and also allow you to admire the most wonderful little towns and landscapes in the Roman countryside. Personalized itineraries of different lengths and times supplied on request.

A Rome cycling map + map holder, with which you can enjoy travelling through the quietest streets of the city. The map is produced by 'TopBike Rental and Tours' and provided to our customers: every street of the center is colored according to its own cycling level.

• Help and assistance from specialized staff and the possibility to upgrade and personalize the bike with a wide choice of accessories.

• The only road bike rental place in Rome: two models from the 2009 collection of excellent road bikes.

• The only tandem rental place in Rome: a excellent road tandem.

Our suggestion for an unforgettable bicycle holiday in Italy

If you like group bike trips, come on a bike holiday with us! If you prefer to travel alone, just rent one of our high quality MTB, trekking bikes, tandems or road bikes, spend a few days cycling in Rome, (it’s best if you join one or more of our guided bike tours) and then one week in a beautiful place near Rome, such as Tuscany, the Isle of Elba, Umbria, Sardinia, Corsica, National Park of Abruzzo and so on.
