This was a fun way to get around the city and learn about the history of Chicago. Jay was great! I enjoyed seeing the Millennium Park, the Picasso art piece, Lake Michigan, and the museum campus

Cycle trips always give you an insight into a city and a chance to cover much more ground than walking tours. This tour of Chicago was no exception. Allow a little extra time to find Bobby’s base as it is a bit hidden away. Our guide was excellent and we covered a great deal of space in distance with amusing anecdotes and a guide who had the courage to admit when he didn’t know the answer to one of our very weird questions! In three hours, we saw so much more of Chicago then we could’ve otherwise, felt safe, and hardly encountered anything that could be called a hill !
