So Many Murals! - Wow! There is so much to see in downtown Tucson. Lorraine is a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. She took us to many murals, pointed out other noteworthy places, and recommended restaurants along the way. This was a fun way to get acquainted with a new city.

Great Experience - We thoroughly enjoyed the mural bike tour. Lorraine was an excellent leader, constantly hand motioning to cover turns, slow down & potholes/obstacles on our path. Her knowledge about the murals was over the top & she did not overdo her explanations. She was also very receptive to our questions. And, oh yeah, the murals were awesome. Highly recommend!

A golden key to Tucson’s art and its many wonders - This tour is a MUST if you’re in or anywhere near Tucson. Our guide, Lorraine, was an easy-going and friendly expert who shared so much about the city’s landmarks, neighborhoods, and architecture that it was like getting several tours in one. The scale and beauty of these murals is ineffable, and driving by them in a car just doesn’t compare to standing beneath them and seeing them on a bike. There truly are too many to count and so many to see. As an out-of-towner from the east coast, I found the tour to be an incredible way to see the city and sense it’s many unique areas in a way only bicycling with a true local can provide. I feel like I now know Tucson in a way that would’ve been impossible without this tour, and Lorraine’s Mexican restaurant suggestion led me to a brilliant lunch after about 2.5 hours of cruising this beautiful city. Book today! You won’t be disappointed.

Fascinating tour of street art in Tucson! - We enjoyed the tour--so many great murals to see! Lorraine was a super guide, and was able to tailor the tour to our group, since our family of 4 were the only folks on that excursion. We appreciated learning about the murals, the artists, and other interesting information about downtown Tucson. Just a few things kept it from being perfect--the meeting location is a little hard to find. There are a lot of starts and stops; if you like to just ride for a while, this is challenging. And as finances allow, the bike seats could be upgraded a bit (several of us found them uncomfortable). But on the whole, we really enjoyed the afternoon. Would recommend!
