The best way to see Bordeaux - Interesting well paced bike tour. Micah is a terrific guide, sharing interesting information on all things Bordeaux and its history. He took us to places we would never have found on our own. An easy paced cycle tour is the best way to see and learn about a place. Thanks Micah.

Great ride - Thanks to Mike who was a great guide for 3 hours. The departure point is easy to access and well located. Despite the ride booked in English, Mike took the time to explain to us in French so that everyone could understand as best as possible. THANKS.

Excellent tour - My friend and I did this trip our first morning in Bordeaux and it was a lovely pleasant way to see the city. Flavie was an excellent guide - so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Flavie brought us on a relaxing, safe cycle and provided us with lots of interesting history about the city. She even recommended a delicious lunch venue for us afterwards! We would highly recommend!

Best tour of the city. - Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Our guide Flavia was excellent. Patient, kind and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble. Bordeaux is built for cycling. Flat and spacious cycle lanes. We were four friends on our first trip and we were all delighted with this tour. Couldn’t believe how much ground we covered. We had time to stop for coffee & cake too. Got great photos along the way.

Wonderful way to tour Bordeaux - Excellent way to see the main points of interest in a time efficient manner while getting the expert input from our guide. The only negative was that it requires riders that are confident and skilled enough to ride on cobblestone streets amongst cars, pedestrians and other cyclists (my wife wasn’t comfortable).
