A three-hour bike tour with an excellent, highly motivated guide. It was great fun, and we experienced and learned so much. Harry, our guide, gave us insights into both the historical and humorous aspects of London. He comes highly recommended!
This was the highlight of our trip to London. You don’t have to be fit to partake as there are lots of stops along the route. Our guide Joe was very knowledgeable and a true Londoner who had lots of fascinating insights about each landmark we visited. He kept my 11 year old intrigued with his amazing storytelling ability. All round this was the highlight of our trip, would highly recommend Joe and the royal London bike tour!
Good tour! Harry was a great tour guide and I enjoyed his stories. The bike was a great way to cover more ground in less time, enabling us to see a lot more than a walking tour.
Really great bike tour. We got to see over eight stops and biked over 8 miles. It was very relaxing and not hard at all. They have e bikes
Very good experience and Dan explained everything wonderfully and was very kind
Dan was the best guide! We appreciated the history and humor. We covered a lot of territory and he took care to make sure our group stayed together. We would book with Unlimited again.
We really enjoyed the Royal London Bike Tour including Hyde Park. Noel was an excellent guide. He was very informative with a great sense of humour and made everyone feel welcome from start to finish. We saw so many famous sights and learned lots along the way. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting London. The tour was very relaxing and Noel our guide was completely chilled out.
Thank you! We're so glad you enjoyed the Royal London Bike Tour, and that Noel's humor and warmth made everyone feel welcome from start to finish. It sounds like you saw plenty of famous sights and picked up lots of history along the way. Hope to see you again soon!
The bikes are nice and easy to use. You can do this with kids. You see some beautiful sites and Harry is a great tour guide!
Thank you, Christie! We're glad the bikes were easy to use and that this worked well for your family, kids included. Great to hear Harry made it such a fun experience while showing you some beautiful sites. Hope to see you all again soon!
This was a great tour! Jamie was knowledgeable and kept us safe and together on the London roads. Most of the biking was on bike paths and we covered many of the major sites. Jamie was easy to follow and understand, and had great anecdotes along the way for all of the sites we visited. He made the places come alive. Would highly recommend!
Thank you, Sue! We're so glad Jamie kept the group safe and together on the roads, and that riding mostly on bike paths made it easy to take in the major sites. Great to hear the anecdotes added to the fun too. Hope to see you again soon!
The tour was so much fun! Bike seats are uncomfortable and I may have asked for the e-bike after finishing the tour but I feel so proud of myself for biking that whole way. It really was the BEST way to get a snapshot of London. Our tour guide, Arna from the Netherlands, was super knowledgeable as well and had the COOLEST stories you don’t get usually on tours!
Thank you, Kelly! We love that you're proud of biking the whole way, that's a real achievement, and we're so glad it turned out to be the best way to get a snapshot of London. We'll pass along your kind words to Arna. Hope to see you again soon, e-bike or not!
