Jose was super knowledgeable about the monuments and their history, and was also a super fun guide!! Experiencing the tour by bike was also a great way to see everything! 10/10 would recommend.
Le guide, José est passionné d histoire et aime sa ville. De bonnes explications tout au long de la visite.
Matt was great and we had so much fun!
Abby was a great guide and made a real effort to explain things on the tour
The best thing about the tour was definitely our guide, Joe! He made this a fantastic experience, not only informative but lots of fun. It was the highlight of our trip. We really appreciated having a full 3 hours to ride bikes and see the sites, and Joe provided interesting information as well as time to stop and take photos, explore the monuments, etc. Even though it was Memorial Day week, the crowds were not as intense due to it being in the evening, and seeing the monuments lit up was special too.
Great tour got to get a lay of the land the first night were in town. Sydney was fun and knowledgeable. She got us to see all the monuments !!!! Great tour.
We had a great guide and really enjoyed the tour and seeing all the monuments. The ride was pretty easy so good for a variety of people.
David was fantastic, attentive, excellent commentary and historical facts. Loved the tour so much. Great bang for your buck. Great bikes, comfy seats. Bike brakes were a little squeaky, could use some grease-only suggestion.
Great tour guide Matt. Informative and kept everyone safe and having fun
