Loved the tour with Katie she had so many fascinating pieces of historical information to share with us that were so interesting! Unfortunately the weather worked against us during this tour! Would highly recommend this tour company but make sure you watch the weather and plan for a sunny, dry day!

A must do tour in London
Lindsey_C, May 2024
This was the absolute best bike tour we’ve been on. Katie, our guide, made it so fun. She was the quintessential Londoner- from the content to the outfit. We lucked out and ended up with the most gorgeous day (and a private tour by scheduling fate!). I will be recommending this tour- and special recommendation to Katie. Thanks for the personality and hospitality!
BEST BIKE TOUR OF LONDON
Omar_G, May 2024
We had arrived from Lima that very morning with a layover flight and London welcomed us with a classically wet day. Jetlagged and disappointed about the weather we decided to push on and head for our booked bike tour. Luckily, getting to the ralley point was easy. We were met by Edward - hands down the best tour ever. He's not only a savvy londoner, but he has a knack for narrating history filled with unique anecdotes and in his fun witty style. We biked through the rain (all adequate safety measures taken care of) and had an amazing time. It's was the best decision. It balanced both our bodies and souls
Great bike tour of top London sights
Jennifer_H, Apr 2024
Edward was a wonderful guide. He started on time and did a great job giving information on each landmark we visited. He was easy to follow on the bike and took safe and less crowded routes. I highly recommend this tour.
Fun bike tour, excellent stops, and great choice of pub to cap the day
Ryan_Y, Apr 2024
Excellent guided bike tour through London. James was an exemplary guide and the itinerary was perfectly curated. At no point was the biking strenuous and the various stops for history and tidbits were perfectly spaced. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would recommend to anyone and everyone.
Fun ride within animated chap for a guide
Brian_F, Apr 2024
All the ride was very interesting and enjoyable despite the weather being a bit cool.. Bring a light jacket
Funny, informative and nice
Ibrahim_Z, Apr 2024
thank you, James for the nice experience. It was really nice tour The place is the explanation. The full experience are really good.
James was super entertaining, great way to see most of Londons landmarks!
Alec_B, Apr 2024
I did this with one friend (who took the pic) and our guide was James. We were joined by two couples and one solo traveler. It was the perfect size group for this type of activity! The bikes were great quality/well-maintained and rode smoothly with a nice basket to store your belongings on the front. Weather was on our side and it even got pretty sunny! The wind is a bit more biting on the bike so definitely layer up and if you need to strip your coat, you can! Also would recommend gloves unless you know it's going to be warm. Your knuckles will thank you! James was very funny, entertaining, and made 3.5 hours fly by! You see the sights of London (mostly Westminster/South Bank areas) with some stops for history, context, and some humorous anecdotes. James was great about keeping us engaged with questions and questions to get to know us/our preconceived notions on London. He even timed it out so we caught the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace! Just make sure you go M/W/F/Sun if that's important to you! This is an amazing "first morning in London" activity to get yourself familiar with the iconic/touristy area. It's a good value and doesn't wear you out completely like a walking tour might. The pub stop in the middle is nice for a little rest/bathroom break/refreshment and wasn't too long or too short. Heads up, you don't spend a LOT of time on the South Bank where a lot of the must sees are but he did make sure to stop and point some things out. Honestly, it would not be fun to ride along the South Bank for a long time due to the sheer amount of people walking in your way. You will not see the London Bridge, Tower Bridge, Shakespeare's Globe, etc. on this tour so fair warning there. Easy to walk down there yourself after the experience ends.
Great time !!!
Dennis_R, Apr 2024
Katie was great !!! Group of five of us went and everyone had a great time. Very relaxed and enjoyable ride in London would recommend for anyone. Thanks Katie
Fun bike tour!
Michelelangley, Apr 2024

So enjoyable and interesting!

Charming informative bike ride through London
Michael_R, Mar 2024
Bryan was an absolutely fantastic guide through the streets of London. He informed us of many historical facts and took wonderful photos of us. This tour is a great way to see the sites of London in a comfortable and informative manner.
Unique and entertaining
Amrita_K, Mar 2024
James was an amazing enthusiastic guide. The group was a small size which was also nice . The graffiti bridge was a spot we would not known about without him able we thoroughly enjoyed adding our bit of art
BEST BIKE TOUR!!
Andrea_O, Mar 2024
This was the best bike tour ever! Our guide James was so much fun, very witty and informative. It's the best way to hit up all the main spots in London in only a few hours. We timed it perfectly to see the changing of the guards which was an added bonus. I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
Great overview of London with an expert guide!
Carrie_C, Mar 2024
We loved the tour. Got to see a great cross section of London. Our tour guide Edward was amazing. Particularly loved the Banksy Tunnel at the end. Overall 10 out of 10. Highly recommended and ask for Edward!
Katie made this the BEST tour ever!
nataliedoaneyahoocom, Mar 2024
We felt like this was the best way to experience the major landmarks of London. Katie couldn’t of been more experienced, full of life and brought the sites alive with her interesting knowledge of history. She was spectacular. We went on a day that the changing of guard was in effect. She showed us where they started then brought us to the Buckingham Palace where they preceded. In a once in a lifetime experience she knew where to go to get in front of them. She made us feel like we didn't miss a thing. Her personality made it even more fantastic! ❤️ Thank you Katie (so sorry if I spelled your name wrong) Your happy crew the Doanes
Amazing trip with james
Enrico_F, Feb 2024
Amazing James!! Wonderful time and very interesting stories. James is very clever and nice guide. Hope Meet you soon in London !!
Great tour and guides!
JosephE_T, Jan 2024
Great bike tour and pub stop. Guides were awesome and very informative. We were able to see the center of London in a fun way.
Just good for the solo soul!
Marie_H, Dec 2023
So Cold but amazing fun! Katie was the perfect host, infectious personality. Small group of 5 on this tour, lovely group of people makes it all the more worthwhile when you travel solo. Been to London lots of times, but learned lots and saw things never would have seen alone or just missed by walking by. This cycle tour is a must, super value for money, was well looked after, lovely cycles and could have spent the entire day with these people. Thanks Katie 🥰
Definitely GO!
barbijweinberg, Nov 2023
Great tour! Would highly recommend! Saw a ton of historical landmarks. James was very informative. Very easy flat terrain. The only downside was it was raining a little & cold, but that London weather for you😬
Fun, easy with a local flare!
Alexander_M, Nov 2023
Great tour, a highlight of our time in London! Edward was fun, great story telling and never felt rushed! He gave us an insider view of London. The bikes were in excellent shape and the hats were fun and a nice touch. It was a great pace as you would bike for 5-7 minutes and then stop to take in the stop. Highly recommend this tour for all ages, we are in our sixties and never felt it was beyond our ability. The stop at the Lamb and Flag along with our graffiti moment were great!!
