Highlights

You’ll love cycling on its tiny back streets and learning its vibrant history.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Paris Experience! - We had the absolute best time on our Paris bike tour — it was truly one of the highlights of our trip! The city is beautiful from the seat of a bike, and this tour made it easy and fun to explore the sights without feeling rushed.
A huge part of what made this experience so special was our guide, Arnaud. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor that kept the whole group engaged and laughing. Arnaud clearly loves Paris and shared fascinating stories and local insights that brought the city’s history to life in a way you just don’t get from a guidebook. He also made everyone feel comfortable and safe on the roads, which was much appreciated — especially for those of us who hadn’t been on a bike in a while!
We covered so much ground, from iconic landmarks to charming hidden spots we never would have found on our own. It was the perfect mix of sightseeing, culture, and fun.
Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Paris — and if you can, ask for Arnaud!

Fun Bike Adventure - Sorry it has taken so long to review, just got home. This was one of the best city bike tours we have taken in our travels. Lucien did wonderful job of making this tour fun, informative and seeing parts of the city we would never see on our own.
I highly recommend, time well spent and thoroughly enjoyed.

Good tour with nice guide - This hidden gem bike tour was very interesting and informative. Our tour guide Joris (Joe) was amazing! He made it easy to find him in the meeting spot which had the meeting spot “fountain” hidden by white market tents and construction. This construction/obstruction of the fountain could/should be noted in the meeting point instructions.
The bikes are all new and in good condition. One of my brakes was squeaky and didn’t work real well alone but with both front and rear brakes together it stopped ok.
It would have been very helpful if the bikes had a basket, OR at the very least info in the instructions advising that one is NOT provided. We came prepared with a back pack but many people did not. Joe ended up carrying stuff for some people as did my husband.
I must confess I did not feel entirely safe biking in such close proximity to cars, truck and busses and had hoped it would be more of a car free tour. Even the other bikes and scooters created concern at times. Once I saw the area of tour I realized this was not going to be the case. Some areas of the tour had no bike lanes and even the areas that did have bike lanes had us crossing streets where the green lights were not long enough for our entire group. It really felt like the tour should have had two guides - one at the front and one at the end - especially since our group included a family with teens who were not comfortable on the bikes. We had bus drivers trying to cut us off, yelling, honking, etc. My husband who does a lot more “road” biking than I do was more comfortable than I was with the traffic. He ended up bringing up the rear of our group. He said he felt he spent more time watching for the people in front of him (getting them across streets where lights had turned red; getting through tight, congested areas; missed turns; etc) than enjoying all of the sites.
Our rate felt a little over priced, especially in light of the fact that my husband ended up being the end of the group guide.
Overall it was a nice tour, but probably not the best for those with little city biking experience.

Great way to sightsee - This was a way to see the Latin quarter the Jewish district and many other things. Our guide, Lena was wonderful, very kind, attentive and informative. It did not feel rushed amazingly.You must be in decent physical shape and able to bike ride without difficulty. I am nearly 70 and can say it was really a workout..

I would do the tour again immediately! - Léna was a great guide! We had a great time! She was very quiet, friendly and considerate. She always had a joke on her lips. She could answer all our questions perfectly. We had a great time. I would do the tour again immediately!
Anyone who is afraid of French road traffic or thinks it is too strenuous, I can reassure them. 95% of the way you drive through small alleys and there is a small climb up to the Pantheon, the rest is all at ground level.
