1. GUIDE: Easy-going, lovely guide who really loves her job. She kept all the tour members safe and sound by explaining all the rules and then took us on an easy cruise around the French Quarter.
2. TOP QUALITY BIKES: The seats on the bikes were extremely comfortable ( well cushioned ) for the horribly pot-holed streets of New Orleans. The bikes were well-maintained and prepped well beforehand upon arrival.
3. WATER, EQUIPMENT: The guide was well equipped with ponchos, helmets, bottled water for all of us. I didn't have to carry anything other than sunscreen and mini wallet. However, they also provide baskets for bicycles if you like.
4. TOUR LENGTH: For 2 hrs, just the right amount of easy exercise. However, you can get hungry so bring a granola bar (not a sandwich or anything like that ) but a banana, apple OR granola (not all three!) can tide you over until lunch time when the tour ends.
