We did a bike tour today with Harry and it was great. He was very aware of keeping us safe and made sure we understood where we were headed and how to follow behind him if we were on a street. He was also very good about telling us if a certain section of the bike path had an incline and that we might need to gear down. The tour was very interesting and informative about Pittsburg and Harry was very kind and respectful of us and all the other people we encountered. I would highly recommend this tour and Harry.

With Covid closing a majority of the activities in Pittsburgh, like concerts, we looked for other activities to entertain us. We had a hotel and sitter booked already. I Googled tourist attractions in Pittsburgh and came across the city bike tours. My husband & I were pleasantly surprised! It was so much fun! Our very knowledgeable Tour Guide, Dave, kept it fun, light & was filled with historical facts about the City! We very much enjoyed the biking and sightseeing! Highly recommend to anyone visiting City wanting a tour with interesting facts about the lovely city of Pittsburgh!

If you’re holding back, feeling undecided or otherwise apprehensive, so was I. Those thoughts were unwarranted. The prior reviews are on target: a great experience. Harry, our guide, was a wonderful, engaging and kind man. My 15 and 12 year old daughters thoroughly enjoyed the tour and Harry did a phenomenal job engaging them and me. The bikes are comfortable, Harry took the time to outfit us properly and made the tour fly by. For parents concerned about street riding—-so was I. Those fears are unfounded. Minimal street riding and what was part of the tour was largely on streets with minimal traffic. Good common sense and paying attention to your guide equals ZERO issues. This tour will take you to the North Side, Three Rivers Trail, the Strip and more. Great opportunity to ride over the McCullough Bridge, see the rivers from above and take in the vistas. Visit PNC Park, Heinz Field, downtown buildings and more. Ample history and architecture balanced by leisurely riding. We brought our own helmets and rented the bikes. Worth the $5 not to drag your own bikes downtown. Parking is easy only a block away at the Grant Transportation Center. Five stars in every aspect. When we are able to return with out full family, we would not hesitate to do another tour. Professional. Friendly. Safe. Informative. Great value. Can’t ask for more. Harry, thank you for making our day!
