Truly the highlight of our trip to NOLA. Enjoyed a small group guided by the owner Eric. So incredibly knowledgeable about his hometown his enthusiasm is contagious. The route uses bike lanes, felt very safe, easy to ride, well maintained bikes. Five stars do not miss!

We had an amazing tour guide Eric. He was a great historian and kept us captivated by his knowledge of the city. He was also a native of New Orleans so that made the experience even more enjoyable. He was great at navigating us safely around the city. We would highly recommend this tour.
