Memorable - It wasn't obvious that it had to be booked using GoCity app and we found it difficult to do so, hence the 4 stars. It was fully booked when we got there so booked for later. Glad we did as the afternoon was perfect, as was our guide Dan. He made it a memorable afternoon, was full of information, very humorous and took the time to know us and make everyone on the tour feel special. As this was our last day in NYC, it really rounded off our trip. Thank you, from the 'Cambridge Four'!

Good. - The bikes are of good quality and quite well maintained (mine would need a derailleur adjustment). Nothing else to add but Triadvisor imposes a minimum of 100 characters

Ok rental, could be a better ckeck-in process. - Check in was simple and fairly quick, albeit a bit crowed. One bike had severe gear shifting issues and upon return it seemed like they flagged it for repair. Otherwise the two bikes worked fine. The check-in process was problematic as one employee was both checking-in and checking-out both lines, with a dozen people in each. He did his best, but he was overwhelmed by customers, some who became impatient.

An hour of waiting but then we enjoyed it - It doesn't matter if you book in advance. When you arrive, you'll have to queue like everyone else, and they may not have enough bikes. You'll have to wait for someone to return it or bring more, as was my case. An hour and a quarter of waiting since my arrival. And I arrived early. They also keep your ID until you return, so bring your driver's license if you don't want to leave another one. The bikes were in good condition and the shop staff was very friendly. By the time we started the route, we'd already forgotten about the wait, but we had to eat within the waiting period, so we lost some time. In short: arrive as early as you can to take your bike and then well

We love the idea, but the quality of bike was rough. - The bikes were not properly maintained and were very dirty. My bike in particular would not shift any lower than 4th gear, which made the rolling hills of Central Park quite challenging. The chain came off of my daughter’s bike and we also had to fix that. I let the employees know about my bike when I returned it 2 hrs early. I was hoping for a refund of some sort.

I don't recommend it! Negative experience - My husband's bike wasn't going well. They gave him a bike for women and he asked for one for men. It didn't go to the one who gave us the bikes and he had a bike that didn't fit and my husband couldn't adjust the saddle that was too high ... So difficult to pedal! I had to ask for an anti-theft device so we could stop and put the bikes down in peace. Same for the helmet he didn't give me. I made an observation when I asked for another helmet because mine was dirty and sticky with less foam. He told me it was like that!

Unlimited bike rental NYC - Bike didn’t work well, gears didn’t work properly, chain fell off half way through bike ride. Shop was crowded, chaotic check in, no bathroom on premises,they send you down the street to a restaurant:(

Appalling company! - Shocking company! The bikes we were given for our 2 hour ride around Central Park were appalling quality - brakes didn’t work and my daughter’s chain came off after 15 minutes. We then had to push our bikes back to their rental place and we were then told we would not be offered a refund despite the fact that they immediately admitted her bike needed to go for repair. Since returning home to UK I have got my credit card company onto getting my money back for me but the company continued to argue that we do not deserve a refund! I wish we had never used this company - they are nothing short of appalling. Do not touch them!

2 broken bikes and half a day thrown away - Bad experience. Terrible, I'd say. 2 bikes rented for 3 hours to take a ride in Central Park and after a while both broken chains. I managed to get one of them all dirty, but both my son and I still had to walk back because there were two of us. We reported the matter to the staff (witness of the broken bike) who wrote us on the back of the receipt the contact details to make the claim and get the refund. The next morning the writing was gone (take a picture if you happen to, because pink ink is really weird). However, I contacted Customer Service both via Viator and through their website and not only did I not get a refund, but after 3 days not even a reply or an apology. Take a city bike next time. Assisted pedaling, you store it everywhere and it doesn't break.

DO NOT RENT- Your safety is not worth the risk - DO NOT RENT from this company. Their bikes are unsafe and clearly not maintained—mine broke down mid-ride, and a course marshal told me “this bike should never have been rented.” The helmets are cracked and useless, offering zero protection. No support on-site, no solutions offered—just a nightmare from start to finish. Rent elsewhere. Your safety isn't worth the risk.
