Great family ride with tastes of Chicago - We booked this bike tour because we thought it would be a fun and more active alternative to riding a tour bus around Chicago. We weren’t disappointed. Our tour started off a bit rainy, so we were provided with ponchos. Our tour guide, AJ, set an easy pace that our 9 year old could keep up with. We rode along Lake Michigan and up into the Gold Coast neighborhood, which was decked out for Halloween. We had a wonderful lunch of deep-dish pizza, including a gluten free pizza for me. We continued to ride and eat our way through Chicago in a fun and memorable experience. The bike ride was almost all flat so nobody struggled. This was absolutely one of the highlights of our trip.

Got me comfortable in the city - I was unsure about biking in Chicago but Nora made it easy. I am also not a city person and normally avoid them but this tour took me to places that I would not have seen or even thought to see while visiting. It really helped me be much more comfortable being in the city and walking around over the next couple days. Kind of like an ice breaker for me. My family very much enjoyed the food and sites. Thank you.

Family Bike Ride - AJ was an amazing tour guide. Good instructions before the ride for safety and tips. Almost too much food to eat!! We had a great time seeing different areas of the shoreline part of the city. Our youngest was 12 and our oldest was 57, and we all were able to comfortably complete the tour.

Awesome Tour Experience! - We had an amazing time on the family food tour today! Anderson was our guide and she was friendly, fun, knowledgeable, and kept everyone safe. Her positivity and encouragement made it a great experience. We loved hearing about the 4 tenets of Bobby’s Bike Hike and Anderson certainly helped us experience the joys of travel, community, health, and service!

Best activity for seeing Chicago with kids - Great fun way to see the city landmarks and try deep dish pizza and Chicago style hotdogs. Our guide Anderson was very professional in keeping us and our kids safe while also filling us with great facts about the city’s history.

Highly recommend Bobby's Food and Bike Hike! - My 18 year old daughter and I went on this excursion. A.J. was our guide and he was patient, kind, and funny! It was fantastic. We are in decent shape--not bikers tho, and it was perfect. Not too hard and lots of stops. Food was fun and we got lots of background and history. We saw more sites than I was expecting! It's a good thing to do at the beginning of your trip because you can kind of decide what you want to do with the rest of your time in the city. They give you one water to start. I would bring another with you!
