Friendly knowledgeable guide, like the urban guru of bicycle paths. We could not have done this type of adventure on our own without a lot more planning and a lot more time. Highlights include the paul Revere statue, the tribute to the MIT policeman lost to the Boston marathon bomber, the “Harvard Yard”, and much more. The key is the Adventure, the Experience, the courtesy, the convenience, and the well maintained equipment.

Loved this local shop. Super organized, helpful, safety conscious and most importantly a fun tour! Austin and Bob led us through so many green spaces I didn’t know existed in Boston/Cambridge. Of course seeing all the colleges and the learning the interesting tidbits about them was very interesting. One of my favs was going over the water locks and be sure rings the bell art installation!
