An enjoyable experience in the Summer weather, but the groups are quite large. If you get stuck at the back of the group you risk getting left behind at a signal even if for a few minutes, which can be pretty confusing for someone with no concept of direction in the city. Our tour was in large part on roads in either unprotected bike lanes or shared lanes with vehicles, so less confident cyclists may not feel comfortable. However, an efficient way to see the key landmarks in 3.5 hours, and the inclusion in London Pass makes it an excellent use of time if you purchase one.

Vittorio was an awesome guide! He was very passionate about the history of London and knew so much! I learned so much about London’s history and culture. We got to see all the major landmarks and monuments all in the span of 3 hours! He even timed the tour perfectly so we were able to see part of the changing of the guards ceremony. Great option if you only have a few days to explore. 10/10 recommend. Request Vittorio!

Had time in UK before taking off for an evening flight. This was the perfect way to get some exercise and see London in a totally fun and accessible way. We had a great guide and got to see so many places. Initially booked for 5 people, my wife and youngest (10) did not join. Just me and older teenagers. That was good as I don’t think our 10yo would have been confident or safe in some of the stretches as you ride right next to traffic and have to make some pretty fast lights. I rode at the end and saw some other adults struggle at times. Also, I’d ask about your size. Anything more than 10 (ours was to have nearly 15, would be less enjoyable. Would do again.
