A tour that will give you all the information you need. - Unfortunately the weather was horrendous. The tour started off with light rain and the final 30 minutes was probably the worst downpour that I’ve ever experienced. Despite that, the whole bike tour was extremely enjoyable. Our guide was so knowledgeable and made the trip so enjoyable. Vancouver is such an amazing city and the history behind it is really interesting. I’ll definitely be doing the tour again in the hope that the weather is better next time.

THE PERFECT TOUR OF VANCOUVER - Our bike tour, with Jeremy, was phenomenal! We had everything working in our favor - a personable and knowledgeable tour guide, a beautiful city, and perfect weather. My fiancé and I learned a ton about Vancouver - the good, the bad, and the ugly - while biking around this beautiful city. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone I know coming to visit Van City (the city’s nickname and one of the many things I learned lol).
The tour was not too long or too strenuous. There are about 3-4 inclines throughout the route we were on, but it wasn’t too challenging for our group. All in all, the tour lasted about 3.5-4 hrs and we enjoyed every minute of it.
I loved that our guidance didn’t stop once the tour was over - they offer a list of numerous restaurants, dessert spots, coffee shops, shopping, books to read, and so much more.

Trails through the forest. - We had a wonderful time. It was suppose to rain but it really only sprinkled now and then. We were totally fine. Our guide took us places that you would never see in a car like bike trials in Stanley Park that took us through the forest.

Great way to see Vancouver! - Great way to see the city! Despite it being a little rainy and cold we had a wonderful bike tour. Our group ended up being only six people which helped make it feel personalized. Outside of one or two uphill moments, biking was easy with plenty of stops to take in different parts of the city. Definitely recommend!

Best bike tour - Our guide, Jeremy, was awesome! This was the best thing we did in Vancouver before getting on the cruise ship. Jeremy’s stories of the city, its history, art, architecture, politics, social and cultural scene, fascinated us. Riding bikes around the city was easy due to all the bike friendly trails and streets. I always felt safe. We had lovely weather also! I would highly recommend this tour
