Unprofessional company

adrian_c, Sep 2023

I booked this tour month in advance then it was cancelled on me the morning it was supposed to start because they didn’t have enough people in the booking for their liking

Response from Host, Oct 2023

uhmm… we don’t get many one person bookings for a 20 mile bike tour throughout the city during flash flood warnings and heavy thunderstorms! You were offered different dates and options at discounted rates- but you never responded to our emails, texts, or calls, silly person. And anyone who watched the news, NYC was decalred an emergency for flooding...

Ride and learn!

john_b, Aug 2022

Learning new facts about ny and getting a little exercise to bootl. Weather was perfect and guide was really cool and knowledgeable.

Lots of fun but check your bikes before you start

Jessica_O, May 2022

This trip was fun but beware, check your bikes before you depart. I had no back brake which caused me to almost flip over when I had to fast stop in Central Park. My back tire also wobbled back and forth.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Thank you for pointing out your issues. We have a partnership with a bike company who provides the bikes in lower Manhattan. On our Brooklyn Tours, we own our equipment and take pride in the maintenance of our bikes.... it has certainly come to our attention that the quality of the bikes in Manhattan are not to our standard as a company and we have taken measures to solve the issue by not using the companies bikes.... pre-covid we had storage for all of our bike in Manhattan and had to move everything to our Brooklyn Location. We will be moving back into the "city" soon... Again thank you for bringing to our attention and for the more than fair review of what we do.. all the best.

so very interesting!!

vanessa_l, Oct 2021

The most memorable part of the trip was The wonderful stories That Tom, my guide, told. He’s a great historian but he’s an even better storyteller. Nobody likes to learn about history. But we all love a good story and that’s what Tom provided., Not just dry history. The tour was more about the culture Of so many wonderful people in Chinatown Greenwich Village, little Italy, and so many more pockets of culture within the Manhattan metro. Thanks Tom!

Cycling rocks

avanginneken2019, Oct 2019

Although initialy canceled because I was the only remaining participant. The tour went in and i am very happy that Josh was willing to do the tour. New York is amazing as are people like Josh who have a lot of inside of New York and New Yorkers...

Response from Host, Nov 2019

Thanks - you rock! Also worth mentioning is that everyone in your party canceled because of poor weather but you decided to do the tour no matter what.... with that attitude we had to find the guide that would go out with you... and thanks for mentioning Josh's knowledge of Manhattan.

Good way to spend 6 hours

Darcydog1, Jul 2019

Second visit to New York we fancied something a bit different so booked the bike tour. It didn't disappoint. Lots of info provided along the way. Safe travelling on the busy streets and through Central Park. Only downside too many breaks hanging around. Other than that had a great time. Give it a go.

Nice guide but...

RallyImprezive, Apr 2019

Our guide was a really nice guy, but he knew very little about NYC. He usually only stated the name of the building or monument, then moved on. He provided some information that was entirely wrong. A few bikes had mechanical issues during the ride, and he did not know anything about how to resolve those issues. And the ride isn't for everyone. We rode on surface streets with heavy traffic, ran red lights, and often rode down the middle of busy streets. If you aren't very comfortable on a bike, avoid this tour. Personally I had a blast with the riding part. Just not the tour guide part.

DO THIS!!! :)

Valerie L, Apr 2019

You will ♡ John and his team!!! I am not a regular rider and was able to bike the entire tour without loosing a lung ! This is the BEST way to see a lot in a short amount of time !

Rerouted and SO happy I was:)

Valerie L, Apr 2019

I was the only person to book this trip and was asked if to consider a tour through Brooklyn. I gladly accepted and I am happy to report that it was better than I could have ever expected! I am not an active rider but managed the 15 mile tour through Brooklyn just fine. The history and the views are AMAZING!!

This was a totally amazing tour. My...

Sharon W, May 2018

This was a totally amazing tour. My guide, John and Josh made sure that I saw and stopped at all the things I wanted to see. My suggestion is take the early tour as the traffic not so busy. At all times i felt completely safe with them looking out for me. I'm not a regular bike rider but finished it with ease. I caught a taxi out to the start but would suggest you have access to über etc as finding a taxi for the return trip was not easy. Once again John and Josh took care of this for me. I was an Aussie travelling alone and I think they took pity on me. Would say this is a must do as I was able to see everything up close.

Tour sehr kurzfristig abgesagt, obwohl vorher bestätigt

Thomas_S, Oct 2022

Die Tour wurde ca. 4 Wochen zuvor gebucht und auch dann wenige Tage vorher bestätigt, aber dann 15 Minuten nach dem eigentlichen Beginn auf telefonische Rückfrage abgesagt. Eine Mail mit der Absage wurde nicht gesendet. Erst auf Anforderung wurde der Betrag rückerstattet. Sehr schlechter Service. DEr komplette Tag war über den Haufen geworfen.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

To be clear, you never rode with us? A review of a tour that never took place? We also cancelled your tour because of heavy rain and strong winds the night before/ not 15 minutes before. As a private company we apologize that we aren’t servants to your needs.

Une belle decouverte de Manhattan
