Andrea

Our guide Pierre shared many stories that bought the history of the places alive. I learnt so much. The electric bike tour was a great thing to do on our first day in paris to familiarise ourselves with riding around the city. Highly recommended.
Linda

My family did a Paris charms and secrets tour last week and it was a highlight of our 4 day trip. Fabien was a really excellent guide and made the stories come alive. We saw many places that we had never visited before and it was full of interest and fun. The kids aged 11 and 16 loved it too and the cycling added an extra dimension. Fabien was relaxed and attentive and even fired in a trip to the patisserie too. Highly recommend
Leanne

This was the best tour! Fabien was energetic, knowledgeable, and caring, always looking out for everyone. The stops were charming, the stories fantastic—and with e-bikes, I’d recommend it for anyone.
Jay

We had such an incredible experience on our e-bike tour. Fabien was our guide, and his gregarious personality combined with his extensive knowledge of French and Parisian history made this a highlight of our visit. It was so fun to see the city by bike, and we were introduced to so many places that we are excited to revisit for further exploration. Highest recommendation! ❤️
Dustin

My partner and I booked this Tour for our second day upon arrival and it did not disappoint! Our guide was Pierre and he was equal parts knowledgeable and charismatic. The weather was cold so I recommend bundling up! We started our tour in front of the Chaumet jewelers which is one of the oldest in France. There we learned the history of the area before moving on the getting our bikes. Bikes were comfortable and being electric meant that we breezed around the city with ease. By being on two wheels we were able to see and get into places that gave us sights we might not necessarily see from a tour bus. I was fascinated by Pierre’s account of the history of the locations we visited and by the end of the 4 hour tour, my partner and I were left with great ideas for further visits in Paris to see and lots of places to eat and drink. I cannot recommend this tour enough. It was great as a first timer to Paris but I would have gleaned new information even if I felt I’ve “seen” Paris before. Thanks for a great time Pierre!
Michiel

great tour on places i've not seen before. Interesting facts, and a joy to cruise around paris on a bike.
Kathleen

Thoroughly enjoyed the experience with our very knowledgeable guide Reuben. It was lovely to see other parts of Paris, such as Saint Germaine and the Marais districts, along with the gardens frequented by locals, such as Luxembourg gardens. It was good to know how to navigate the streets on bicycle. There are many lanes made available but having a guide certainly instills confidence.
Shawna

This may have been one of the best things we did all week. Jasmine took us through some off the beaten path interesting and not as known spots. She is very knowledgeable, entertaining and truly a kind soul. Don’t miss out on this experience
