Rented 5 bikes to bike through Central Park with our kids. I needed 3 bike exchanges and the bike I got was clicking, the gears didn’t work well and the tires squeezed and it felt like it was going to fall apart. The workers were rude and didn’t try to help me. I ended up riding a terrible bike through the park. Would not recommend but not sure what other options there are if you have a child under 16.
We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. Having to exchange your bike multiple times, only to end up with a bike that wasn’t working properly, is frustrating enough—and we’re especially sorry that our team didn’t provide the helpful, courteous service you deserved. We take both the bike condition and your comments about our staff seriously, and we’d appreciate the opportunity to make this right and provide you with a much better experience next time.
Very kind and accommodating staff. The bikes worked well and the price was right. We would definitely do it again.
Thank you! We’re so glad you had a great experience with our team and enjoyed the bikes in Central Park. We really appreciate your kind words and would love to have you back again!
Traveling with 3 children, including a 10-month-old baby. I see that they do not have a baby seat at their Central Park location. I ask how it can be done and they tell me to rent one in Brooklyn. I point out that I have to bike across all of NY, which is not like crossing San Casciano! They tell me there is no solution. I ask, since there was still plenty of time, if they could have a baby seat sent from their Brooklyn location for the chosen date. They answer me that it is impossible. I do not understand what this impossibility is due to. Never again. Rip-off!
Grazie per averci scritto. Ci dispiace molto per il disagio con il seggiolino per il bambino di 10 mesi, capiamo quanto possa essere stato frustrante sentirsi dire di noleggiarlo a Brooklyn quando vi trovavate a Central Park. Vogliamo verificare con il team locale come possiamo migliorare la disponibilità di attrezzatura per famiglie in questo punto noleggio. Grazie per la pazienza e per averci segnalato questo problema.
This was easy to book, and the staff were helpful and friendly. The pick up location is only a short distance from Central Park.
Thank you, Andrea! We're glad booking was easy and that the team was helpful and friendly, with the pickup location so close to Central Park. Hope to see you again soon!
You’ll need atleast 5 hours and it is a work out!! It is not flat, so expect hills. The company was great but we did regret not going with the electric bikes. All in all we had a great time and came out of it with stronger legs :)
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear you had a great time exploring Central Park and enjoyed your ride with us. You’re right — Central Park has plenty of beautiful scenery, but it also has some hills that can make for a more active adventure, especially when riding for several hours. We appreciate your tip and agree that electric bikes are a great option for guests who want to focus more on sightseeing and less on the workout. We hope to welcome you back for another ride (and maybe an easier one next time 😉)! 🚲🌳
I absolutely recommend booking on Get Your Guide because you save a lot. The pickup point is behind a building near Central Park. Both there and at the stand at the entrance of Central Park, the price was $24/hour per person. On Get Your Guide, we paid $12 for 2 hours!! In fact, even at the reception, they initially did not understand how we had booked... evidently, Get Your Guide draws from businesses that had availability, and they did not know it at that moment... In any case, at these terms, it is a great deal, and the tour is very pleasant. It takes about 1.5 hours to complete the entire bike loop around Central Park. Highly recommended!
Grazie mille per aver condiviso la tua esperienza! Siamo felici di sapere che hai apprezzato il giro in bici a Central Park e che hai trovato il tour piacevole. Central Park è davvero uno dei posti migliori da esplorare in bicicletta, e il percorso ad anello permette di vedere tanti angoli suggestivi del parco in poco tempo. Ci dispiace per la piccola confusione al momento del ritiro e apprezziamo il tuo feedback: lavoriamo costantemente per rendere il processo di prenotazione e check-in il più semplice possibile per tutti gli ospiti. Speriamo di rivederti presto per un’altra pedalata a New York! 🚲🌳
Great way to explore Central Park. While there were a few gentle inclines, flat surfaces made the ride extremely enjoyable. Will use this company again.
Great bikes with smooth gears and brakes. Came with helmet, map and lock. Very close to central park gates
