The staff is very accommodating. The temps were extremely high and they offered an earlier time and shorter tour. But the tour met all expectations. History content was good
These guys are fantastic! So knowledgeable and fun! Equipment is in great condition. No problems. He let us take our time touring the lighthouses, shopping , and enjoying those lobster rolls. Gave us great recommendations for things to do in Old Port. Definitely well worth it!!
Thank you--Customers like you make it easy!
Leah and Ross were very flexible and accommodating as we had to change the day and time of our original booking. Leah was our tour guide and was very informative all along our ride. I can't say enough about the experience and would definitely do it again!!
You guys were a fun group. Thank you!
We loved this excursion. Josh was informative and very conversational. He was always checking on everyone’s comfort level with the ride and the pace. Thank you!
We are so lucky to have Josh here. Thank you for coming!
Well organized. Relaxing ride - not too strenuous. Beautiful scenery. Nola was a great tour guide. Nice lunch break.
Thank you--I will let her know!
We had a fabulous bike trip with Ross. We learned a lot about the area, saw the lighthouses, and ate probably the best lobster roll of our entire trip on this tour! Highly highly recommend doing it!!
They are the best in Portland--truly. Thank you for joining us!
We were lucky enough to have bike shop owner and author Leah Day lead our lighthouse tour. She is full of knowledge about all aspects of Portland ME life and history. Leah is friendly, charming and just a beautiful human. Regardless of which leader you get, all tours will be a learning experience mixed with lighthouse beauty. Highly recommend!
Geez--you make me blush. I had a great day with you.
I enjoyed the bike ride through the neighborhoods, parks, and to the lighthouses! It was a really good workout. Not too long, not too short but just right. Our guide, Ian, was great with giving us historical facts about the places we visited. He was friendly, patient, and eager to address our concerns and questions. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to enjoy a leisurely bike ride around the area. The bikes were in great shape too! Two thumbs up! 👍👍
Thank you guys. Great customers make for great tours.
It was a very nice experience, the lighthouses and the whole área are beautiful and have amazing views! The guide shared great facts too!
Ended up going solo as my friend backed out last minute but it was very enjoyable at just the right pace. My guide, Ben, kept it manageable and gave me time to explore a couple of the lighthouses. This is a great tour to see the lighthouses and get a glimpse of Portland’s history.
