This bicycle tour is for cyclist who thought they could never ride through the busiest streets in London. Our guide was excellent, providing us with facts we never knew about the city and leading us through parks, streets, and crowds like we were pros. The best e-bikes, the best guide, the best service were all beyond our expectations. Exceptional!

Fantastic way to see a lot of the city in a short amount of time. Connor was an excellent guide. Highly recommend.
We are really pleased you enjoyed your bike ride with Connor. It has taken a while for us to introduce E bikes to our bicycle tours. You were one of the first people to take this new route Specially designed with E bikes in mind. We have had great feedback from this route because it shows a special unique part of London to visitors. Hopefully will see you again soon. Rob. London Bicycle.
