| I booked this for 10AM the morning after my flight from Europe. The timing was perfect, since that's like getting up late back home. This was much better than most guided tours I've been on, since you can cover a much bigger area on a bike than on foot. Biking also created a much more relaxed atmosphere, so it was easier to ask the guides about anything connected to Boston, including beer, baseball & the Bruins. Without this tour as a starter, I could never have covered so many sights during my short (3 days) stay in Boston. |

| The bike tour my mom and I took with Urban AdvenTours was informative, fun, cultural, and sustainable. All the employees were quirky and personable, which created a positive atmosphere. Not only did we see and hear historic and current events at several stops along our ride, the bike ride was really enjoyable. This business also is environmentally-conscious and local, which is fantastic! |

| We took the Boston City View tour with Urban Adventours. We are a family of 5 with 3 teenage kids and we all agree that the bike tour was one of the more enjoyable activites we did on our trip. Our guide was friendly and provided tidbits of history and information about the different neighborhoods. I would have liked a little more history but he did get us a peek in at Fenway! One note, their website states a stop at the North End for coffee and pastry which we did not do. We mentioned this and our guide said we could stop there on our own at the end of the tour at 2pm. We were on the 10 Am tour and my kids were counting on this stop for breakfast! I also would have liked a little more time at some of the stops such as the Boston Public Gardens and Beacon Hill to walk around, perhaps they need to add some time to the tour for stops.
The bike tour was a great way to get an overview of Boston, the cycling is easy, the route is predominantly flat with a couple of short inclines. Our guide did a nice job of navigating us through city traffic and we would recommend the tour to anyone in place of sitting on a tour bus or duck-mobile! |

| We very much enjoyed our bicycle tour of Boston with Urban Adventours. Could not believe we covered as much ground as we did and how quickly 2.5 hours flew by. Our "guide" was a lot of fun and knowledgeable about our stops along the way. Only wish we would have done this the first day of our trip so we knew where we wanted to go back to. Strongly recommend this tour. |

| I booked the tour after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor. We arrived in Boston on a Thursday night and decided to book the tour on Saturday morning because we thought the vehicle traffic would be lighter. On Friday a.m., we decided to take a trolley tour as well. On Saturday we arrived at the site for the bike tour. The guys working were great - helping us with our bikes, helmets, etc. Our two guides were friendly and very knowledgeable about the City and its history. They led us through the City of Boston - in and out of different areas and neighborhoods. We stopped along the route as they told us about the history of the area as well as current trends and interesting facts. It was a great way to see Boston for the first time. In comparison to the trolley tour - this was by far the better choice. I would highly recommend this tour to all travelers of Boston. |

| GREAT CHOICE OF ACTIVITIES IN BOSTON! A MUST-DO!!! This bike tour really gives you a feel for the city's lay-out, history and interesting things to do. I suggest that all visitors take this bike tour on one of their first days in the city. It is fun for all ages. It also helps plan out the rest of your visit in Boston. |

| Unfortunately it was raining most of the time during our bike-trip thru Boston. Nevertheless we had a great time with our guide Len. Thanks again for that very interesting and unforgettable bike tour. |
