Interesting ride through the Park - Manny gives a great tour with a lot of great stories. Worth doing as it’s well paced - even for kids. Lots of great sights that you wouldn’t pick up if you were going through the park by yourself.

Great experience and great with kids - A thoroughly enjoyable bike ride and would recommend to anyone visiting NYC. Very easy to book in advance with a sightseeing pass. Our tour guide (JJ) was great, really informative, and great with our 2 kids (age 9 & 6) As long as your child can competently ride a bike, the tour is great for them. (I think they also rent trailers and tow rails too!)
Definitely a NYC highlight, make it a must on your visit.

A great way to experience Central Park - Central park is huge, and therefore a nice way to experience it is on a bike. We went on a guided tour with Martin, and we had a great time. Martin is a really good guide that tells you about the park and the city and about life in NYC. The park is beautiful and we enjoyed being there in the fall with all the spectacular colours. The bike ride is not hard at all, and we actually would have liked to ride the bikes a bit more, but it was also nice when Martin made his stops and told us about the park. A great way to see the park with a great guide. The renting of the bikes was easy, and the bikes were in an okay condition.
