Loved this!. One of the highlights of our two week tour of Italy. Our guide Alexa was wonderful! Tour of castle and wine cellar were great, the biking was hilly, but manageable had to walk part of a few hills, and the views were spectacular. Lunch and wine at the castle after were divine!! Highly recommend.

I realize there's a lot to do in Tucson, but if this is your first visit and/or you have never ventured into the downtown area and want to see whats its like down there from the perspective of a local citizen, this is the best way to do it. During our three hour tour, Jimmy showed us things about Tucson that you would not see if you toured in a car or walking along a street or two. We covered approximately 12 miles, and he provided a lot of local information and revealed a part of the city that is not going to be found watching YouTube or reading literature about the area. It was a Wednesday morning, and it felt like we have the city to ourselves. Courteous drivers and friendly people abound; this is not New York City. The bikes are easy to operate, and those of us with natural cushioning found the saddles on the bikes to be comfortable. Those of us with bony butts need to bring one of those slip-on gel saddle covers to provide additional comfort. I can't say enough about how funny and informative Jimmy was with me and my family. Strongly recommended.

I'm glad you and your family enjoyed the tour. I agree, reading about a place is nice, but you get a great feel for a place while riding a bike.

Being my first trip to Tucson, I wanted to find out the lay of the land. This tour answered all of my questions about why this city even existed. Jimmy ,our tour guide, had all the answers! Though the tour was 11 miles long , the 3 hours flew by. The bikes themselves were easy to handle and the ride was generally flat. Safety helmets and water were also provided. Road traffic was minimal. There were many stops on the ride during which the history and beauty of the city were revealed. Tour is capped at 7 riders.
