Much better than a bus tour

a great way to get out be active while on vacation. Also a more intimate encounter with the city than siting on a bus.

Great way to see Boston city neighborhoods
Sat, Aug 30  2:00 PM DBrown56 Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
This is the best way to see the different areas of Boston and our tour guide (Ed) was friendly and knowledgeable. The ride itself was casual and relatively easy except for a brief uphill climb that was a little challanging. I was curious about riding on the busy city streets but I never felt that we were ever in any "dangerous" situations. I would defintely recommend this to anyone who wants to make a "green" trip around Boston's best sites.

Best way to see Boston!!
Sat, Aug 30  10:00 AM ninemei2 Male 20-29 Local Family Without Children
I have lived in Boston for 3 years and am constantly trying to show friends and family the City when they visit. Previously I've done duck tours, the museums, freedom trail tours, graveyard tours, and even tried to do my own tour with the family. Now it is all in one bike ride!! I had more fun on this tour than ever before and learned more about every area of the city in 2 1/2 hours than all my previous tours combined. Ed and all the guides went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, staying together, having fun, and seeing some of the best views in Boston. I recommend this tour for anyone, of any age, and any experience. You will see more of Boston than many who live here!

Good introduction to Boston
Sat, Aug 30  10:00 AM bambam98 Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This was our first trip to Boston and did not really have too much time to research the city and explore, so Urban Adventours was a great way to see some of the sights in a short amount of time. Navigating Boston streets is not easy, so being on a bike allows you to cut through the traffic as well as avoid looking for parking which is also not that easy. Since the city is rich in history, having a guide allows you to understand why things are the way they are. The pace is very light which would allow most people to keep up and enjoy it. The only thing is that if you are not used to sitting on a bike seat for more than an hour expect to get a sore bum! It was quite enjoyable. The guides were very helpful and very friendly and extremely knowledgeable; a group of people who really enjoy what they do. This is not something that you can do in every city, so if the opportunity arises, it is definately more enjoyable than sitting on a bus.

Great way to see Boston!
Fri, Aug 29  10:00 AM daovelar Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We recently took the bike tour and loved it. I was a bit apprehensive about riding in traffic, but the guides definitely know what they're doing and are very skilled navigating around town. We have been to Boston several times and have never taken any type of tour, other than self-guided walking. This was a great way to see lots of neighborhoods in a short time. The next day we visited a couple of the areas we had seen on the bike tour. The guides are very entertaining and knowledgeable about Boston and really made this an enjoyable experience for us. We plan on doing the tour again in the future with our two kids. Highly recommend this!

Excellent way to see the beautiful city of Boston
Thu, Aug 28  10:00 AM cmoe73 Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
My girlfriend and I were a little tentative as we had not biked in a while. We had no trouble keeping up even going up Beacon Hill!!! The pace of the tour was perfect with appropriately spaced and interesting stops. We saw and got great insights into parts of the city we may have never known about. Boston is very safe to bike through. Very friendly policemen even stopped traffic for us. Just as we were tired and ready to get off the bikes, the tour was ended. Absolutely a great way to start a visit to Boston!!!!

Great Experience in Boston
Thu, Aug 28  10:00 AM mliptak Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
We spent few days in Boston together with my 16y old daughter. For her it was the best adventure we did in Boston. Fore me it was look on Boston from different angle of view, not as pedestrian or driver but as cycle rider. Highly recommended!

A Must-Do Activity!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on this trip. We did our tour the first morning after our arrival in Boston and it was a great way to get a feel for the city right at the beginning of our trip. I recommend this to anyone.

Great tour
Mon, Aug 25  10:00 AM isabelr Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This tour was excellent! We came to Boston for the first time and we got a really got a good impression of the city. As there are quite a few smaller streets (especially in the older part of the city) you get to go places a tour bus could could probably never take you. Our guide was great too, he told us a lot about everything we saw on the tour.

Fun Outdoor Activity
Sun, Aug 24  2:00 PM aggblade Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I have never been on a bike tour. I had a great time. I am a pretty active person so this fit perfectly. First off the tour guide was very well informed. I learned a lot about the history of the city of Boston. The bikes were in great condition. They provided a frozen bottle of water, but I also purchased a 1.5L camelback for $29 at the bike shop (glad I did cause I finished all 1.5L and the water bottle!) There were only 4 of us besides the tour guide so we were able to get a very intimate tour. Our pace was easy, we stopped every 4-8 minutes to talk about various historical landmarks. This is a city tour so you have to be comfortable with riding in city traffic, however I live in a very rural town and I had no problems. The views were great...I would recommend this tour to any healthy individual.

Bike Boston!
Thu, Aug 21  2:00 PM nanciepaul Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My wife and I had a great time on the bike tour. We were able to see parts of Boston that we hadn't seen yet and even the places we had been to were new on a bike. It wasn't a difficult ride, though some of us were able to push a bit at the end of the day along the Charles River trail. It was well paced, the sites were well chosen, and the guide did a great job getting us all around safely. The other riders, as well as our guide, made for a lively, interesting and entertaining group. This is not really a historic tour, so if it's history you want, do that separately. Highly recommended.

Great fun for family with teens
Wed, Aug 20  10:00 AM jcanna Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
The tour was about 12 miles on a bike, but it was easy riding. It felt very safe riding thru the streets of Boston. Our tour guide was great, we learned quite a few details about Boston.

Would definately recommend this tour
Tue, Aug 19  2:00 PM Jackson2 Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
We are a family of four adults that really enjoyed this tour of Boston. We thought our guide (who is not originally from Boston) to be really knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The pace of the cycle was just right, my sons in their 20's enjoyed the tour as much as we did. We could not criticise this tour but if you ever get enough revenue to have helmet radio contact (so that everyone can hear really well) then that would be great. We have recommended using this company to our travel organiser, Virgin Holidays.

Fabulous way to see the city!!
Tue, Aug 19  10:00 AM sfahey Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family With Children
This bike tour was our first activity upon arriving in Boston. My husband and I along with our son (17 yrs) and daughter (19 yrs) hopped on a subway heading to Boston University to meet up with our tour guides and enjoy the day cycling. What a great way to see the city! We cycled through all the major destinations, taking note of what we would then go back to see on foot. Our guides were very knowlegable and quite humorous as they safely escorted us through the many streets of the city. A "must do" for anyone visiting Boston for the first time!
