Our guide, Walker, was great! He explained our route, was knowledgeable about Paris, very patient. The ride was awesome! Riding bikes up the Champs Elyse was a thrill, and so nice to not worry about ANY traffic. We made four loops around the Arc de Triumphe! The ride thru the Louvre and along the Sienne was amazing! Enjoyed the champagne and croissants at the Eiffel Tower! The highlight of our European vacation. That evening, it was so cool to watch the Tour de France cyclists ride thru Paris on TV, just like we had earlier in the day!!
It was a fun bike ride thru the early morning streets of Paris, riding some of the tour d France route. The guide was very enthusiastic.
Completely worth doing. We saw so much and it was a great way to see parts of Paris. Bart was a terrific and friendly guide.
This was a bucket list event I can now tick off.The young tour guide was great very informative and pleasant Will recommend and Fat tyre tour to friends and family thanks for the experience and keep up the good work. Malcolm 🚴👍
The tour guide was nice, but we felt rush. It was supposed to be 5 of us. 2 decided not to go and we could not get a refund. Thank god they did not. Two of us fell off our bikes. We had to rush out to where we needed to be because the guide was concerned the streets will be blocked and we will not be able to get inside. Once we feel we had to rush back on the bike. I thought I was going to learn about the Tour de France a little. Nope, was just to ride the bike in a rush. It was a safety hazard. We did this tour ove 15 years ago with the same company and there were injuries as well from others on the tour. Would not recommend for those looking for a safe bike ride.
Excellent way to see the main sights of this beautiful city. Amir was fun, interactive and full of some really cool facts of the city. Will definitely recommend to anybody wanting to visit Paris :) Go Fat Tires!!
Absolutely loved my time on the bike tour. Was fortunate enough to have Cory as our leader/guide who was delightful, insightful, passionate and also very safety focused. My father enjoyed the attention to detail on the safety side. It was a key part! Cory was able to guide us efficiently and really give some insight to the whole group at once. Educational yet fun. Ride was enjoyable, not too challenging from a fitness perspective. Group tour was fun - the group was international and fun! Very welcoming.
Paris is a very big city, wandering around will be overwhelming. This is a highly recommended trip to warm up with Paris. Chloe our guide is a breeze with great knowledge. The trip was enriching experience.
Our tour guide Amir was excellent! Very knowledgeable and great fun. He expertly navigated our way around the protests in the city so we got to see all the key sites & we hardly noticed the disruption. Would definitely recommend the tour and his expert guidance!
