Best way to see Pittsburgh! - Harry was our guide and did an amazing job. We love doing bicycle tours and this tour was one of the best. Harry showed us the highlights of Pittsburgh as well as some out-of-the way places. We totally recommend Biking the Burgh.

I want to ride my bicycle - Great tour and way to see the city while in town for the day. Learned lots about the town and felt we covered all the highlights of downtown and the surrounding area. Sarah was a great host and can’t recommend enough!

A great way to see the city - We had a great time peddling around the city with Sarah! Due to another couple canceling, we ended up with a private tour. Sarah is a wealth of knowledge about Pittsburgh and could answer my husbands many questions 🙂. We try to find a bike tour in every new city that we visit, and this was among the best that we’ve taken!

Take this tour! - Wife and I had a fantastic ride around Pittsburgh with KANE - a very well informed, charming, and thoughtful guide. The ride was easy (none of the hills!), and the sights and stories were well worth it. An easy way to get to know the city - and we left feeling excited about Pittsburgh. Also, we replaced our off brand ketchup with some Heinz.

Great visit - Very interesting visit. Our guide Dave was very knowledgeable and easy to follow. He made sure we were safe while riding downtown. Biking makes it so much easier as we can see so many things in 3 hours. The bikes were comfy and well maintained.

Awesome ride and day - Great weather on February. Perfect for a bike ride. We had a blast. Our tour guide Kane was very good and polite. He told us the historic of the city, including buildings and landmarks in details. We would do it again.

The Absolute Best Tour and Quick Guide to Pittsburgh - Came in for the FSU Pitt game on a weekend birthday venture with wife and kids (16 and 10). I found this biking tour and booked for a Sunday. Our tour guide Sarah was amazing and has so much knowledge about the city especially for a few people who have never visited the area before. The weather was incredible, the overall tour was amazing, and we very much enjoyed all aspects of this tour. Thank you Bike The Burgh and thank you Sarah for being an amazing guide.
