Tour de Meh: A Historic Race Through Pedestrian Traffic

Mike_R, Mar 2025

This tour had its moments, but for the price, I expected more. Riding e-bikes through a busy city was certainly an adventure—think ‘sightseeing meets obstacle course’—but it sometimes felt like we were too focused on dodging pedestrians to really take in the sights. The historical insights were light, and the tour itself was shorter than expected. That said, if you’re looking for a fun, fast-paced way to see the city and don’t mind a little chaos, you might enjoy it! But if you’re after a deep dive into history, a walking tour is probably the better bet."

Tour was in total rain,...

Tour was in total rain, but ride was great. Bike was great. I am used to more information on my tours; however, the rain may have made it harder to communicate a lot. I still really enjoyed my tour & would recommend it.

Highly recommend
