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.
Fantastic bike ride adventure
JillAnowL, Sept 2019
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.
