Great bike rental. - Absolutely brilliant experice, very helpful, maps included also lock and key. We hired our bikes for day and if you are anything like us and get distracted by views etc its most definitely worth doing this. Bikes were great, good condition. No deposit needed which also is amazing just passport required. Great service many thanks for looking after us. Friendly staff.

Be prepared and pace yourself - The quality of your trip is going to depend on your own attitude and preparation. Make sure you take water and maybe a snack. If you’re not used to long bike trips make sure to pace yourself. The hills are no joke. Give yourself plenty of time. The bikes are typical rental bikes so don’t expect a high performance machine. They do the job.

Great day on bikes - We rented a couple of E-bikes for the day and it was a great choice. The staff was polite and patient explaining everything we had to know. We made a trip across the Golden Gate Bridge all the way to Sausalito and back enjoying the scenic views. They came in really handy when going over hills and we felt no tiredness after a day of biking. The Golden Gate Park itself was amazing as well, a green oasis in the city.

Family time - I had such a great experience with Parkwide Bikes! The staff was super friendly, welcoming, and made the whole rental process quick and easy. The bikes were in excellent condition—smooth, comfortable, and perfect for exploring San Francisco. They gave me helpful tips on the best routes, including scenic spots I would have missed otherwise. Riding through Golden Gate Park and along the waterfront on their bikes was one of the highlights of my trip. Prices were fair, the service was top-notch, and everything felt hassle-free. Highly recommend Parkwide Bikes if you’re looking for the best way to see the city!

Unsafe Equipment, Refused Refund – Beware Tourists - I rented a tandem bike for myself and my 11-year-old daughter, and another bike for my wife, from this business in Golden Gate Park. Within 15–20 minutes, the tandem’s gear shifter failed, the chain came off, and the brakes were dangerously soft. This made the bike unsafe to ride. We immediately returned the bikes and were told a supervisor would be there in 7 minutes to issue a refund. No one showed. I called the main number and spoke to the owner, who told me I’d have to wait until 3:00 p.m. (it was around noon). When I explained we could not wait, he became belligerent, refused to refund, and hung up. This is not just poor service — it’s unsafe and predatory behavior toward out-of-town visitors. If you value safety, honesty, and basic customer service, I strongly recommend avoiding this business.
