Great way to tour Boston, as a local or visitor. The folks at AdvenTours are friendly and hands-on with the bikes. Makes for a great gift! |

I've lived in Boston for almost 3 years and this was the first time I had used a bicycle (due to an immense fear of crazy Boston drivers). I had such a good time on the tour that I'm considering buying a bike. Our 3 tour guides were very knowledgeable & funny and showed us that it IS possible to safely bike in Boston. We went by some of the usual sights--Trinity Church in Copley Square, Fenway--but since you're on a bike, you get to go on routes that cars, trolleys & the Duck Boats can't. Our City View Tour took us uphill through the North End (since it was 10am, we could smell all the pastries & coffee!), along the Charles River Esplanade, through the Fens & the South End.
I thought it was a great way to see the city, while squeezing in a bit of exercise. The tour is 2.5 hours and you're biking for most of that time (except to stop at the sights), but since Boston is relatively flat, it was fine. I would definitely my out of town friends & family on this ride. |

The bike tour started out at the Boston harbor and continued throughout the city. We got to see Boston University, historical landmarks (including Ben Franklin's house), Fenway Park, Boston Commons, etc. It was a wonderful tour with wonderful tour guides. A definite must when visiting Boston! |

Our bike tour was the highlight of our trip to Boston. It was my first trip to Boston and I enjoyed seeing it by bike. Our tour guides were knowledgeable, had a sense of humor and stressed safety. |

This was the 2nd time that I had taken this tour and I liked it as much this time as last. I was there with my 12 year old son and this activity combined his love of biking with his love of history. The guides are the best! They know the city well and have interesting stories you probably won't hear anywhere else. They are concerned for everyone's safety and I felt completely comfortable riding on the city streets with my son. If you love biking or even remember loving biking, you'll love this! |

I went with my parents (60 yrs old) and my wife and I. Both athletic and very unathletic builds. We all loved it. Exercise and entertainment and factual all at once. Lived in boston my whole life, but was fun to see and hear things I never knew. Best way to tour boston for those who don't like to read displays at museums or sit boringly on a trolley listening to someone speak. |

While in Boston we did the duck tour, bike tour and walked the Freedom Trail. By far our favorite was the bike tour and our guides Pell and Greg were terrific. Highly recommend seeing Boston by Bike! |

The trolly or Duck tours cannot give you the "been there" feeling that the bike tour does. Driving by in a vehicle is nothing like riding a bike through the park or stopping to have your picture taken next to a statute. It was really a great experience and was so much more hands on than the trolly or Duck tours I took.
Also, you do not have to be in great shape to take this tour. There is only one real hill and they cut that up into three sections, using cross streets to give you a rest between sections.
I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see the sights of the city and learn a bit about the history, as well as what is happening currently. |

We thoroughly enjoyed this bike tour. What a wonderful way to see Beantown.
We are two adults and two teenagers that haven't stopped talking about our bike adventure. One of the adults hadn't ridden a bike in over 18 years!! She had a blast!
The tour guides (both college students) were great. We heard lots about Boston's rich history! We highly recommend Urban Adventours to anyone visiting Boston!
(Even if it has been years since you rode a bike!!!) |
