Excellent tour, don’t miss it! - Ricky & Lucy were GREAT! The tour was very informative. Ricky kept a keen eye on all of us & made sure no one was lagging behind or had any issues. He was very patient and also very safety conscious. We saw more than we thought we would along the 3 hour trek & there were ample stops to take it in & have a short break. This tour tied for our favorite thing we did in Edinburgh with climbing to Arthur’s Seat. We highly recommend it!

Very informative and... - Very informative and pleasant guides. Genuinely concerned for the safety of the riders. We traveled about 2.5 hours stopping at several sights. Our guide took as many photos as you wanted. I would recommend getting the e-bike if you are not an experienced rider or in shape to pedal up several hills. It was an awesome way to see the city away from the tourists.

Bike tour in Edinburgh - Had a fabulous bike tour! The guide-Stuart- was super flexible and let me change the day of the tour at the last minute. Then the day of the tour- it was just me- so fabulous 1-1 tour- you really get to see quite a bit of Edinburgh and Stuart was very knowledgable. He shared lots of history and lots of information about landmarks. You should be comfortable cycling! I opted for the e-bike but only used Eco mode rather than Manual one time for a hill- so likely quite feasible for relatively fit to use a regular bike (but I did appreciate the e-bike on the hill!) Highly recommend this tour as a great way to get a broader view of the city out to the ocean in Porto Bello and Leith. Mostly on small trails- with just a few times in traffic on the roads and a few cobblestones near Leith.

Amazing Journey. - Great guide and an amazing journey. Really liked the stop for a quick snack. Bikes were easy to ride, we saw a lot, and strolled at a great pace. Though I didn’t have an e-bike it was easy enough to keep up. However there was one part that was uphill that was a real challenge. Pushed through to make it up the steep hill. It was a workout but felt satisfied.

What a great way to see more of Edinburgh! - We really enjoyed our bike tour led by Ricardo. We saw parts of Edinburgh that we didn't expect to. The tour covered a lot of ground, going all the way to the beach! He knew how to get around, keeping us safe from traffic. He also gave us some good history lessons of the areas we saw. We were glad to be on e-bikes, as part of the trip was up hill!
