What To Expect

Mellon Square

Experience the density of Downtown Pittsburgh with its outstanding architecture

Strip District

See the transformation of the Strip District (no strip clubs!) first hand, with its central market house, food vendors, restaurants, bars, and souvenir shops (Go, Steelers!). You will be impressed by its colorfulness and richness in smells. But please do NOT come hungry on this 3-hour bike tour! :-)

Stop on one of the river trails to take in the breathtaking view of the unrivaled skyline of Pittsburgh while learning more about its big variety of historic buildings.

Point State Park

See the confluence of the three rivers in this magnificent state park which also marks the birthplace of the city of Pittsburgh. More history there!

PPG Place

A square that you won't fine anywhere else. We'll leave it at that. Join this fun and educational bike to to find out why... :-)

Market Square

It is Downtown's central square, full of restaurants, eateries and bar with events throughout the year. By the time we'll bike over this square you will be hungry and ready to get inspired for some yummy food. It is only a 15 min walk away from the ending point of the tour (bike shop).

I had a fabulous "Beauty of the Burgh" tour from Dave. He provided a great amount of history and he traveled with handouts and charts to amplify the history. This is the best way to get an overview of the downtown area and history (note, helps if you read a little history in advance.) The tour route is 90+% flat. I rode the "public" bikes. These are light weight, well maintained, 8-speed bikes. Changing gears is very easy. If you want to keep riding the bike after the tour, they'll give you a healthy discount off the regular rate...which is what I did. I actually rode to the Frick and Carnegie museums and also had a lovely ride up the Monongahela river. For any trip to Pittsburgh, I would take the Beauty of the Burgh tour on the 1st or 2nd day of any visit to Pittsburgh. Note, tours start at 10am.

Amazing bike tour of Pittsburgh, the perfect combination of education, scenery, architecture, and exercise! It was so fun despite some dreary fall weather and our tour guide Harry was excellent - he even pulled out a thermos of hot tea for us to enjoy mid-trip! Harry was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating to our party. It was a perfect activity to take our out-of-town family, but also learned many new facts about Pittsburgh myself. Great COVID protocols in place as well. I would highly recommend and will be back again!

We had a wonderful time with Harry as our tour guide. We had 3 adults and 2 kids (20 and 15 yo). We saw so much in a short period of time. Saw point place park, Heinz stadium, pnc park, market square, the strip and so much more. Good talking points throughout and enough resting spots. We loved it! Even my 15 year old son gave it a thumbs up.
