Rob was a great guide. My wife is afraid to ride on streets in traffic, and the Historic tour was perfect for her. The tour was on very level terrain. Two great hours of entertainment and history.

I don't bike much -probably hadn't been on a bike in 20 years - and I loved this tour. Lots of history about Tucson from the guide who is fun and makes safety a priority!! Plenty of stops for rest and information. Tucson is a bike friendly city and I was not worried riding in the street in the bike lane. The weather was beautiful and cool so that was nice. I highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic! We really enjoyed this bike tour of historic Tucson. Rob was the perfect guide -- interesting history and anecdotes delivered with a wry, understated humor. He clearly enjoys his job. The tour takes in the key sites of early Tuscon, including the picturesque barrios. Great attention to safety and making sure everyone in the group was comfortable. The tour is essentially flat and the single speed bikes work really well. The route is mostly on quiet streets and bike trails. Do it early in your trip -- we went back to several locations on subsequent days.
