Our guide - I think his name was Paul - was the best. Friendly and knowledgeable who made sure our little group was safe and enjoying the tour. The coffee stop by the Seine was a welcome respite from a little rain. The meeting point was easy to find with perfect directions. We would highly recommended this great way to experience the out of the way sights.

Frederic Thuillier was our guide and he was fantastic - so knowledgable. We did a second bike tour with a different company the next day Frederic's tour was so so much better. If we go back we would try and only pick tours from Simply France Tours since our guide was so good this time.

a nice female tour guide. Friendly fellow tourist from USA joined the tour. Good bikes. I would love it to be more cycling. It was usually short rides, before stops. But it was a great experience, and i would do it again. It was quite expensive, so we were not able to give the guide a gratitude. So i hope - she gets a decent salary based on the price. I would reccomend this tour.

This bike tour was a highlight of our stay in Paris. I loved riding through the small neighborhood streets. We stopped at a beautiful park. We saw the old city wall of Paris and a few medieval buildings that are still there. We also rode the bike path along the Seine and stopped at a little coffee stand to sip an espresso and watch the runners and bikers go by. Our guide Paul was very informative and friendly. I feel like we really got to know the city on this tour and saw so many things we would not have discovered on our own. So much fun!

This tour allows people to parts of Paris rather quickly. The tour goes into 4 districts in Paris and our guide, Christian was knowledgeable about each place. The pace of the bike ride is leisurely and the guide was careful to make sure everyone in the group was safe. Paris has so much going on, but this tour elicits some curiosity about the city. A surprise on the Tour was a column of mounted police horsemen and women parading in uniform for the President of China’s visit.

Lots of fun much more interesting than standard tourist spots. Great restaurant recommendations as well.

Great tour, only 4 people total and our guide Clemen (spelling?) who was awesome! He is so knowledgeable about so much history and took us to lesser known spots in Paris! Bikes were nice and route was flat and easy and our guide did a great job signaling us for turns or intersection crossings. Loved it and would recommend! We are 2 Americans and went on May 3, 2024.

Fred was a great guide.. he even tied in some of the tour to Guernsey for us. The bikes were comfortable and we really enjoyed the tour.. 3 hours passed very quickly and we feel like we have seen a lot of Paris that we normally would not have seen. Thank you!!

Maria_S

Really loved this bike tour. It was great getting to know different places within the city. Our tour guide was very knowlogeable and with a lot of local information.

Gene_S

We had the opportunity to check out our bikes, to make certain they were suitable for us. We were told so many background stories and the history on the sites that we saw, e.g., Place des Vosges. Our guide, Clement, was open to all questions + prepared to give more details if we were interested. He had a chronology on the history of France, complete with diagram. So thorough + so professional + so safety-conscious! Loved it!
