Great tour with friendly informative guide

My 13-year-old daughter and I did a 2-hour guided bike tour with Luke today. Luke was very knowledgeable and told us all sorts of interesting facts about the park, its history and the buildings and landmarks. It was really fun and we visited parts of the park we would not have found on our own. The bikes were comfortable and in good condition and the cycling was easy. 2 hours flew by! Highly recommended.

Great Central Park Bike Tour!

Truly excellent experience! Our tour guide was Darrell, and he was outstanding - friendly, knowledgable, flexible with the schedule, and just fun and a genuinely good guy. We rented solid Trek bikes which were great. Highly recommend!

Okay but wouldn't do again

Bikes we're not in great shape, balding tires, shifter not working, etc.; no set up or making sure bikes fit prior to leaving. Guide wasn't super knowledgeable- would say something about a building or site and then say "or something like that" or "I'm not sure.". No speaker or headset, could not hear anything the guide was saying until you stopped. Only did about half of the famous landmarks. Beautiful day though and gave us enough of an experience that next time we'll just rent bikes somewhere else and go through at our own pace.
