Loved Central Park!

T_S, Apr 2024

Phillip did a wonderful job and Central Park exceeded all expectations. The e-bikes were very easy to use. Highly recommend this tour.

Tardy Tour

Denise_N, Feb 2024

Enjoyed our tour guide but he was 30 minutes late. The ebikes were newer and comfortable. I would give all the stars if he had showed up on time.

Central Park Delight

Judith_T, Nov 2023

Excellent tour! We had electric bikes, electric scooters and regular bikes. The tour guide accommodated everyone. We stopped at all the significant places. Phillip was a wonderful guide!

You will have FUN!

Phillip was our guide, and he was terrific. Engaging. Knowledgeable. Affable. Fun. We toured the park in about two hours. It was a little crowded at the start, but the park traffic thins out as you travel north. The e-bike was plenty easy to ride. Good power adjuments up ro down. Safe. A really fun way to see Central Park...and Phillip was outstanding. He know his movie connections to the Park, which I loved.

Do NOT Recommend

Laurie_S, Sep 2023

No customer service. Employees spoken very broken English. Tour guide was 15 minutes late and ended the tour 15 minutes early. Did not receive nor was offered a helmet as stated was provided. Received no instructions on how to use the rental.

Worth it

James_B, Sep 2023

Awesome 2 hour tour with Philip, the Bulgarian Nuclear Physicist… saw parts of the park we would never have discovered. E-bikes made it stress free.

Amazing guide

Mark_R, Aug 2023

Our guide Michael was amazing! He was so genuine and kind. He made the experience top notch! We will definitely book another tour next time we are in town.

Perfect family activity

Megan_M, Aug 2023

We learned so much about Central Park in a short and easy ride. No fitness required! Enjoyable for teens as well. Our guide was funny and knowledgeable. I highly recommend (our kids are 14 and 19).

Great way to see the park!

Terri_K, Jul 2023

Great way to see all of Central Park in a few hours and learn a little history. Our group of six had a great time. Great tour guide and very nice bikes. Only downfall was we there were many people getting bikes all at once and we started about 10-15 minutes late and got back ten minutes early. It would be nice to take advantage of the full two hours when paying for it.

Very unfriendly at the...

Marian_E, Apr 2023

Very unfriendly at the bike shop but the guide made up for it. We had a beautiful day and we got interesting insight stories from centraln park. The storied took too long for our teenage kids.

Beautiful day in Central Park

Jim_M, Sep 2022

Architecture was amazing! Great weather! Not a lot of people so easy to navigate. Ebikes made it easy

Worst tour ever

Tee_S, Jul 2022

Not being NYC natives we made it there by the skin of our teeth. We called several times to confirm directions. The girl was nice and provided the precise location. However, when we arrived it was as if they did not know we were suppose to be there. Went to the desk signed us in. Was told to go outside and tell them we are apart of the tour. Given bikes we never rode before. No explanation how to work the e-bike. No helmet given. People standing next to us we did not know we were apart of their tour. When they took off, we were told to go with them the tour started. We did even have helmets. They said you should have grabbed them. Tour took off I hurried grabbed two helmets for my kids. Finally, caught up to the group...thank goodness for that light. The tour guide said oh you apart of our group we said yes and we were new NYC and never been to Central park before. We asked for directions on the function of the bike. He spewed some bike jargon. Proceeded with the rest of the group. We still trying to figure out how to work the bike. He took the group with him leading the pack saying they were going to the "mall" in Central park. We had no clue where that was. And he sped off not checking to see if all the group was with him. I still dealing with a nervous daughter about her bike. We were finally able to take off and somewhat get him in our sights. However, we got stuck at a crossing light for pedestrians. Lost the group. Got to a fork in the road when trying to catch up and took the wrong rode. Called the office to explain what happened. They did not know who we were and what tour we were on. Finally, id the right tour and guide. They said they would call him. We explained where we were. They sent him to the wrong place. We felt so bad for ourselves and the rest of the group. I just wanted to go back and get my money. To let the group continue on. We did not want to mess up anyone else's experience. They said no refunds. And said we can keep bike for an additional hour and be on our own. The whole point was to have a guided tour. From the trails you have no clue where to go or to know what you are looking at. We just turned back around and turned our bikes back in and took the lost. Being too upset and frustrated to continue riding around possibly getting lost on our own. Central park was the largest part of what we wanted to do on our vacation and it was ruined. They offered 50% discount when we ever came back. Really, no way are we giving money to these people again. Tour sooo not recommended with them.

Saw things in Central Park we had never seen before and would never had known existed. Michelle was a wonderful tour guide!

A tour that was great for for natives too!

Milena_S, Jul 2021

We even had to stop for a quick rain storm and Ed still made it wonderful. So personable, dad-jokes and all. The stops were greatly detailed and being a NYer myself, a heard a lot of new information. My kids loved it as well. Lastly, Is HIGHLY recommend the ebikes!

Response from Host, Sep 2021
