A great experience in New York Biking

We stayed at the Holiday Inn near the Brooklyn Bridge. Our guide met us at the hotel and great bikes were dropped off. We spent the entire day going through historic Brooklyn and the park under the Brooklyn Bridge (great restrooms there too), crossing the bridge to Union Square and then downtown to the Stock Exchange and the 911 museum, lunch there and much more. We finally dropped off the bikes nearby bike center and took a cab back to the hotel. The guide was so well versed that we saved his number for another visit. By the way we are in our 80's and in good shape.

BEST GUIDE

MEGA What a great day! At 7:30 we met with Oli and 3 other people. The group was a great fit and we all got along great. Oli has an infectious cheerful nature that just takes you with it. After 7 hours, lots of info/stories/viewpoints/pictures and many steps we parted with a heavy heart from Oli. In the aftermath we still got great pictures of Oli. I never thought he would leave so many and great pictures to us. Thanks again for that. The extra tips before the trip were great, but the live tips for the remaining days were great. My husband was really skeptical about the price at the beginning, but he was also completely enthusiastic and next time Oli is definitely part of our journey again. Planning is on! Dear Oli, see you soon.

Perfect bike tour in NYC

We did á four hour biking with Olitours. It was perfect and Oli helped us with planning and did so much more than required. We were only two on the tour me and my 15 year old daughter. I will go with him again if I’ll come back to NYC.👏👍

Super motivated, ingenious, interesting, varied bike trip

Oli, thank you!!! You've been whizzing through Manhattan's Sunday traffic with us and our 3 pubescent, cool super athletes on bikes. Your enthusiasm and individual wealth of knowledge will be remembered forever. You provided us with great information before and during our NYC stay and made our days in your city unique! Your photos and movies are the best souvenir ever from NYC! Guaranteed we will come back to you again next time!

Experience New York in a special way!

From the first contact we had a good feeling. Oli announced tips and information via Whatsapp - we were in lively exchange! Oli organized the airport transport, it worked great. We had booked a whole day by bike and it was an unforgettable experience. We came to "corners" that we would never have found without Oli. His multifaceted knowledge of this grandiose start is phenomenal. Whether restaurants, roof-top bars or hot spots, all the hints from Oli were top. Oli is not only a perfect tour guide but also a professional photographer/filmmaker. We received all the material as an extra task. A special highlight was our helicopter flight at night - of course also organized by Oli! But what made the tour so special - Oli is an extremely funny, friendly and buddy type and for us it is clear, on the next trip to NY - of course another tour with Oli! Andrea and Roland

Great bike ride through Manhattan with Oli!

We were recommended Oli by friends. We were initially skeptical about whether we needed a tour guide, as we have already been to NYC twice but the TIp was gold valued. We took Oli on a great bike ride through Manhattan and are thrilled. Already in advance, we contacted Oli via WhatsApp and discussed what we were "looking for" or wishing for and to what extent Oli can support us in this. We also got a lot of suggestions for restaurants and rooftopBars in advance, some of which we can actually include in our travel planning. Oli then picked us up at the Hotl, had another coffee with us and we discussed the tour. He gave us several route options which we could then adapt to the weather (it was super warm and muggy) and our own inclination during the tour. Through the tour we saw areas of Manhattan that we would not have otherwise visited and got a lot of information. All this, coupled with Oli's charm, has made this tour an unforgettable experience. Definitely we will highly recommend Oli on our part and will definitely book him again the next time we visit New York. Contacting early is definitely sensible as Oli is well booked. Conclusion: Thank you Oli for this great day with you!

Incredible experience!!!

It was a lifetime experience: bicycling through the most beautiful venues of Manhattan including Time Square and Central Park. Oli is the friendliest and the most knowledgeable guide you'll find in the City. He showed us the best restaurants and the best bars from every different culture (Indian, Korean, Chinese ecc...), you're going to be 110% satisfied!!! See you later amico mio, un abbraccio!
