This is a nice leisurely, very enjoyable, 2.5 hour, flat bike ride through Tucson. There's very little vehicle traffic, and Jimmy, the owner, does an excellent job of ensuring a safe and enjoyable ride. We toured many areas, including the Presidio District and the U of Arizona campus. If you're in Tucson and have 2-3 hours, it's well worth the $60/person. You will also get a good background on what's happening in Tucson, as well good historical perspective on how Tucson became part of the US, and the impact of the railroad, to name several. Sign up for the ride, support small business, and have a fun day!!!

I'm glad you found the ride length and time to be in the goldilocks zone.

Bike tours are our favorite way to meet and experience a city. Trip advisor has led us to many in cities across the world and once again we were so pleased! Big Jim is a knowledgeable adopted son of Tuscon who has a thorough grasp of its history and beauty. We learned about the plants, history and geography of this quirky town with an appreciation of its people and politics. The bikes were comfortable, the ride easy and the quick empanada stop a pleasant plus.

Excellent time on the bike tour! I was the only person signed up for the afternoon tour, and usually the minimum is two people. Jimmy offered to take me anyway. He was very knowledgeable and it was an excellent way to get to know the city. Thanks so much!
