Sun, Fun and Sensational Cycling.
Vicki_D, Apr 2024
You know that add where the guy looks to camera and says "I liked the product so much I bought the company" .. that's kind of how I feel about MikeBikes ... although I don't think Mike's up for selling .. so instead I booked to go on another one of the Bike Tours :) ... Had a fantastic day cycling around KL. Our guides Johan and Barry were fabulous ... kept us safe and secure at all times on the sometimes hectic KL roads and provided loads of interesting information, facts and personal anecdotes about the history of KL and great fun facts about present day KL, it's people, food and culture. All round a great day .. and I am now looking forward to doing the "Sunset Cycle" tour to get yet another perspective of this fabulous city. Highlight was definitely cycling down the roads and tracks around the old town and Chow Kit.
Fun and efficient way to see the city!
Jasmine_P, Mar 2024
Such a fun cycling tour round KL. as a solo traveler I found this tour really great, both to get to know other people but also learn about the amazing city. KL can be quite hard to walk around and see everything unless you have hours so cycling was a very efficient way to see the city. I was nervous about cycling on the road however the few times we were on the road all the cars gave us way! There is also cycle paths which is great and quite roads with no cars.
Super experience. Very professional!
Deborah_B, Mar 2024
Probably the most professional bike tour out of many I have taken. 3 guides for our group of 8 to ensure traffic stopped or safely away from us. Great photos and videos taken. Knowledgable guides Ping, Salle, Ting welcoming and smiling. Quick response to question about directions. Easy to find location and good equipment/lunch.
Skip the bus and hop on and off the bike even if you are 67. .

Retirement Tour 2024, the Malaysia Days. I got up early today, breakfasted , geared up with my day pack and 2.5 liters of water and hiked about a half mile from my hotel to MikeBikes on Jln Ampang for a 4 hour bicycle tour through the morning traffic, back streets of New Village, over the river and back hitting the KL highlights from Independence Square, the River of Life and Chinatown finishing below the KL tower. We toured a fruit, vegetable and meat market along the way and sampled some seasonal fruits. I highly recommend the jackfruit. We also visited the oldest Chinese temple in KL crowded with Lunar new year visitors and a low smokey haze of incense. Fortunately, the biking was not too strenuous. Darting through traffic was a bit unnerving but not not nearly as unnerving as riding through the shoppers in Chinatown. It was like Moses parting the Red Sea. The image of a bull in a china shop though might be more accurate. We did about 14 km or 8-9 miles without incident. I never took the bike out of first gear. The heat and humidity though was not favorable. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. I went through my 2.5 liters, 1.5 liters courtesy of MikeBikes and another 2 mugs of iced lemon tea at our Indian brunch break. I cheated on the way back and walked the shady side of Jln Ampang to the Petronas Towers stopping briefly for a Lion Dance on the way and then ducked in the Suria Mall and took the air conditioned tunnel back to the KLCC and my hotel for much needed rainfall shower and a good afternoon nap. I can not say enough good things about our guides Y and her partner whose ethnic South Indian name I’m sure I’d misspell more so because of my hearing difficulties than anything. It’s two thumbs up for me.

Wauw, so good to hear that even the slightly older people ( 67 ) also enjoyed our tour to the fullest. Thank you so much for your lovely story and thumbs up review. Much appreciated.
Unique Kuala Lumpur Experience

A unique way to experience the sights, sounds, tastes and smells of Kuala Lumpur. Particularly enjoyed the opportunity to experience the local village and local markets. Thank you Selle for being such an excellent tour guide.

Rochelle_S, Feb 2024
Excellent guides for a memorable experience. Great way to explore Kuala Lumpur. Easy ride with a great meal included
Response from Host, Feb 2024
Thank you so much for your 5 star review. We are happy you enjoyed it.
Group much too large
Aaron_B, Sep 2023
This tour was not good. The group was close to 30 people. This large group made the actual biking a tedious process as we would be stretched across multiple blocks. Overall a terrible experience.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Hi Aaron_B, Thanks for your review. Indeed you joined the tour with 18 pax of a tour agent and 2 other guests, who just like you, made a reservation for a standard tour. There were 21 pax including you who cycled this tour. This is much too big and for standard tours we have a maximum of 12 pax. It was wrongly communicated before the start of the tour and so your group left as one big group. The 4 local tourist guides tried to to solve it during the tour to cycle in blocks, but apparently this was a terrible experience. We sincerely apologize for our mistake. This is not good. Before the start it should be clear that our groups for standard tours should be 12 pax maximum (with 2 guides). Unfortunately mistakes can happen. The fault is entirely ours and that is why we would like to offer you a free tour, where we hope you will have the same wonderful experience as most other guests as you can see in our rating. We would be very pleased when you consider the offering above and would send a mail to info@mikebikes.my if you like to join a tour for free. Again our apologies and MikeBikes would be pleased if you take advantage of our offer. With kind regards, Team MikeBikes 🧡🚲🧡
Thumbs up Mike's Bikes
Gil, Jul 2023
Incredibly well organised with just the right amount of stops and information. Loved that Sin and Murray were happy to take photos. We covered alot of ground and saw the diversity and cultures that would have been difficult to see otherwise. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a more active intro to KL
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Hi Gil, Thanks for your review and 5 stars rating! The routes are fixed and the local guides, like Sin and Murray, knows exactly where to stop at interesting places with good balance between safe cycling and stops. During your Classic tour you will experience the City of Contrasts and Diversity in a wide way. The guided cycling tour is a perfect relaxed active way with an easy pace to get known of the inner city. Thanks again! Best regards, Team MikeBikes 🧡🚲🧡
Heart and soul of Kuala Lumpur.
Andrea_P, Oct 2022
This tour is a great way to experience and see various sides of Kuala Lumpur in a short amount of time. Our guide made this a memorable tour and the highlight was learning some of the history of the city and the lunch provided. This tour is definitely worth doing and great value.
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Hi Andrea_P, 5 stars! Thank you! Indeed the bicycle is a very nice and flexible way to see the city in its diversity. The guides are very familiar with all the interesting parts and places of the capital. They know how to connect in a safe way and what to tell during the stops in different areas. Of course there is a local lunch included during this 4 hours tour. We often hear from the guests that this tour is a great way to explore and experience the city. Again thanks a lot for your review! With kind regards, Team MikeBikes 🧡🚲🧡
