Urban AdvenTours!

I recommend the Boston City View Bicycle Tour without reservation to people of all ages from teens to pensioners. In my opinion a bike is the best way to explore a city but you do need a knowledgable leader to take you on the best routes. We cycled on quiet roads, through parks and on cycle lanes there were regular stops at points of interest and only one short incline. Anyone of reasonable fitness would be able to participate in this tour if you are able to cycle down to your local shop you are able to take part in this bike tour. We have done this sort of tour in other cities and I find it to be a less tiring way to see a city than on foot plus you see far more of the city than you possibly could by walking. Also, I don't think I would enjoy any of the tours on the road such as the duck tour as why would you want to sit in busy traffic when you could be exploring the sites of a ciy up close away from the traffic fumes!

The Boston City Tour was a good tour. I have a few thoughts though: 1. Our group was 25 with 4 guides. Why didn't they split us into groups of 12-13 with 2 guides each? This would have made things much easier to handle. 2. This company has a strict no-refund policy. This is a real pain for when weather issues occur and you are in town a short time. When we were in town it was pouring and they canceled our tour. The rain actually stopped by our tour time so we would have been a little upset if the next day (our last in town) it would have poured. I think it would be much more fair to have a cancellation fee instead of saying it is non-refundable. Overall, this was a nice tour through many neighborhoods. If they could fix up a few small details it would truly be amazing!

What a great way to see Boston and learn about much of its history! Oh yes, and get some exercise as well. Excellent tour guides, congenial group. Would recommend this tour to locals and out-of-towners. We even had a glorious morning of sunshine!!!

This bike tour is really great-- if it's not raining. Because they do not give refunds, we had to take our tour on a really rainy, windy Boston day. Although we had fun, the rain made it a little miserable, and we definitely didn't get as much of the "tour" aspect as we would have liked. We would have liked to stop at more locations, hear more about the city, have more picture-taking opportunities. The AdvenTours staff was lovely and kind and generous and we totally wish them the best. They have a great location too, right in the thick of everything, and offer nice perks like a bike tour that goes to Fenway and lets you drop off your bike and stay to see the game (you have to buy your own tickets). They'll also rent you bikes and even deliver them to your hotel. Great services and nice people. I recommend these tours, but also definitely recommend checking the weather before you book your ticket. Keep in mind that, as our tour guide informed us, Boston is the third windiest city in America. That means that Rain and Boston and Bicycling and Tourism do not go well together.

Guide very knowledgeable and informative. Route includes all the major sites. Had a wonderful time despite the rain!

We enjoyed our bike trip so much! Our guides ( Andrew and Ted ) were very knowledgeable about Boston, and ready to answer all and any questions. This is a great activity for families with teenagers. Our guides were great at navigating us safely through the streets of Boston, and we would do another tour with this group in a second.

I can't say enough great things about this bicycle tour of Boston. Our bikes felt great and our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Boston is beautiful , rich in history ,and experiencing this by bicycle was the best way to capture the city. The route was well planned out - from the harbor front to the river to Fenway park to the inner downtown , through the public garden and Boston Common and back downtown to the harbor. We stopped at many landmarks and learned about Boston's architecture, history, art, inner city planning, where to dine, best bakery and cafes. The tour was diverse and very informative but most of all it was FUN !!! If you can pedal a bike then you need to take this tour!

The bike tour through Boston was the best tour I have ever taken while traveling. The guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I was the oldest person on the tour, but everyone was patient and supportive and it was a marvelous experience.

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!

This is a wonderful way to see many neighborhoods in the area and understand how Boston is laid out. The guide we had was very knowlledgeable about the history of Boston and was very personable. I highly recommend this tour!

Great way to see the city. Excellent guides and equipment. Highly recommend taking the tour!

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.

Awesome time would reccomend to anyone, tourist or local
