| My husband and I both love the outdoors and wanted to get a good overview of Boston. This tour was designed for us! We got a great tour, including history and some fun facts all by riding around the city on bikes! Our tour guide, Mike, was great - funny and knowledgeable. Being on a bike allowed us to get closer to many of the sites than we would in a tour bus and it really felt like we were part of the Boston scene. |

| The tour was informative and fun.
The guide (Andrew-the owner) knew his stuff, and clearly loved both bicycling and the city.
The ride was easier than I thought it would be.
Finding the cycle shop on the 'T' was pretty easy - don't try and drive to it unless you must.
The weather was perfect. (no guarantees there for future riders)
I only wish I'd have booked it for the first day of our trip.
Worth every cent for groups where all are reasonably fit and confident city riders. |

| We were 30 minutes late arriving to the bike shop due to transportation issues, so we missed the tour. The staff was very accommodating, however, and we rented two bicycles and did the tour ourselves. The shop had a map of the general route the guided tour takes, so we followed it as closely as we could. This was our first trip to Boston, and the tour hits all the great spots in Boston. We had to stop often to navigate, so we ran out of time and didn't get to ride up to Harvard Square. Obviously, if we had made the tour, we wouldn't have lost time navigating and would have gotten to see everything.
The shop closed at 5:00 pm, but the staff let us return at 5:30. We still had to pay the full price for the tour, but we got a free t-shirt. So, even though we missed the guided tour, I highly recommend it! I think biking is a great way to see and explore a new city. |

| I would highly recommend the Adventours bicycle tour of Boston. Andrew and Alex were excellent tour guides. The weather was perfect. Our daughter lives in Boston and we are giving the tour to her and her fiance as a must do outing. When we come back to Boston, we will take the tour again. |

| The tour was fabulous! The traffic was not an issue getting around in it, we found the tour thorough and comprehensive. Really gave us a feel for the area and we were the only two on the tour which was a phenomenal bargain in itself but also allowed us to ask extra questions, etc. Everyone should tour the city this way! |

| My wife, and 10 y/o son and 12 y/o daughter and I booked the bike tour around Boston. Andrew met us on time, was pleasant, communicated well with the kids at their level, the bikes and helmets fit and operated well. Andrew took us around Boston and explained the history and was conscious of our abilities, and kept us safe on the streets. We took the tour on a Sunday to avoid alot of business travel. I would recommend this trip for active families with kids. It was great. |

| You are in contact with the city and its historical places, more than you would be from a bus or troley. I highly recommend it. |

| Great overview of Boston. Barry was a wonderful tour guide. Even the rain didn't put too much of a damper on the trip. |

| Everything was great. One suggestion. Give out the water bottle. No need to be sharing it with other riders....and good for marketing ! |
