Great way to get around Boston … beautiful city. Our guides were friendly, knowledgeable and took good care of the group. Even our teenage daughter had a great time and that’s not easy ;) Highly recommend this bike tour

Austin was our excellent tour guide He easily navigated through busy areas, knew traffic patterns, and relayed fantastic history, sports, and architecture factoids of Boston. My kids and I had so much fun and would love to go on another tour with him.

The excellent guide Bob took us on a brilliant early evening bike tour along the Charles river, and we finished as the sun set so we had excellent views of the city. The guys in the shop were great and everything was looked after - there were just three of us on the tour - on a warm summer evening early September. Bob stopped regularly to give us some stories about the city but we just really enjoyed the pace of the tour along mainly bike paths and a few quiet city roads. Even a puncture was quickly dealt with and the bikes were great and easy to ride. The cycling at sunset was quite special and I would recommend it.

What a great way to discover the city. Every city in the would should have a service like this! The guides were really knowledgeable.

We did the tour with 4 adults, a 2 year old and a 4 year old. Bob was great—he did what we wanted, told great stories about Boston and we had fun! Bikes were great too. Loved this tour, highly recommend!

Greg and Brad were so knowledgeable and friendly and kept us safe along the streets! I highly recommend you do this experience very worth it! It has sparked a love of cycling too! Thanks Guys you rock!

My wife, Ursula and I did this tour the day before we had to leave the city. I wish now that we had done it sooner. The tour was great and a good way to get oriented to what's available to see in Boston. It was well organized, safe and very informative. We are avid riders at home, but you don't have to be in fantastic shape to do this tour. The tour was also very safe even at times in heavy traffic. It was the highlight of our trip to Boston. I would highly recommend it. Glenn Gailis MD.

This tour was one of the best bike tours my wife and I have ever taken. We have taken bike tours in several big cities across the US and Europe. A bike tour is our favorite way to see the city and get some exercise. The tour guides on this tour were very friendly. They made us feel at home from the moment we arrived at the shop. They spent detailed time adjusting the bikes to our heights. I really enjoyed the bottle of water they provided that was already iced down. We had a huge group on our tour (19 people I believe). But they did a great job directing us and even blocking lanes of traffic to let us cross streets safely. We did enough riding to get some decent cardio, yet the stops were timed appropriately. They presented very insightful information on Boston, and even made sure to take time to take individual pictures of the riders as requested using the riders’ cameras. We plan to do another tour with this company the next time we come to Boston.

There were 15 people on our tour. We had one guide, a helper to the guide, and a great mix of people on the tour. We took the City Tour, and saw most of the Boston neighborhoods over about 2.5 hours. It was safe, fun, and informative. Great tour for anyone of any age.

The tour started right in time but ended 20 minutes too late. The group was huge (around 20 people) and the skills were very unbalanced. The bikes have metal pedals and if you have bad luck they will seriously hurt your leg because sometime the gears are blocking. The information on the tour was good and interesting. They had four guides, so why didn't they split the group???
