Our sunrise tour gave us a great orientation to dowtown Tucson. Jimmy was pleasant and informative while being patient with our novice bike riding skills.

I'm glad you enjoyed the sunrise tour. It's a great option: quiet streets and lovely temps.

It was my birthday on April 10 and wanted a fun relaxing way to start the day and Big Jim's tour was just the ticket. Lived in Tucson once for a year and have visited at least 20 times since but knew maybe only 1/10 the info that was presented on the tour. He was very well researched and prepared with information. The ride was light exercise but made you feel like you'd done something positive physically anyway. The bikes were easy with peddle brakes and one hand brake. No gears and none necessary. Almost no traffic on the route he picked. Very patient as one of our members needed translation at each stop. Very worthwhile trip 5 stars. By the way I have done these type of city yours since 2000 in Florence, Rome Paris, (multiple times), Sydney, Melbourne, etc. All have been excellent except one in Barcelona where the woman was from Sweden and didn't know much about the city. However, even with that one this is a way to get to know those cities better than you ever could with a year of walking. I'm not a tour type individual yet highly recommend this type of tour. 'Nuff said!

This was the first bike tour that my wife and i have taken. We enjoyed seeing the sights at a slower pace than trying to drive everywhere. Big Jim was very knowledgeable about Tucson and the neighborhoods.
