The tour was a great start for our stay. Good selection of spots to view, interesting commentary by the guide, and just the right pace and timing.

Great tour of Inverness using bike paths and canal roads. Alison gives you a wonderful experience explaining sites, plenty of stops, and clear directions to keep you safe and all together. The path is a nice ride—not super difficult since you pedal the entire ride.

It was a lovely ride. Very easy pedaling. Got to see areas of Inverness we would not have seen otherwise. Our guide was excellent and very informative

Awesome experience 👏 Our guide was passionate about the history of this great city of Inverness. It was enjoying as well as educative. Whilst going through burbling Ness river trails,Beautiful Caledonian canals, Surprising Botanical gardens, we did learn great deal of stuff about how climate change is impacting day-to-day lives of all living creatures around inverness and what we as a community can pledge for sustainable ways of living so that next generations can see this city as it is now.

Alison met us with her trusty steeds (hybrid bikes sized for us) and took us off on an informative and entertaining tour of the interesting parts of Inverness we may have missed had we been left to our own devices. These sorts of tours must be self-selective, as we enjoyed the company of our co-cyclists and even spent time with them after the tour. Alison is a wealth of local information and was genuinely interested in sharing her enthusiasm for her home town with us.

My husband and I had a very enjoyable ride through Inverness with Alison! She's lived in Inverness her entire life and can speak not only abut the city's history but also what changes she's seen and experienced over her lifetime. We made several stops along the way to see some interesting wildlife, important historical sites, and gorgeous landscape. The weather was perfect, and the coffee drinks we had from Milk Bar after our ride were delicious.

Allison did a fantastic job leading us around and telling us fascinating things about the waterways, etc. Stopped by the botanical gardens, cruised through small islands on the River Ness, and learned about lochs on the Caledonian Canal. Fun trip and the right amount of time.
