What a tour-learned more about Paris than in our 3 previous trips! Paul takes you to little out of the way alleys and gardens that you would never see on your own. He is very knowledgeable about Paris and it's history and is loaded with lots of fun facts that he shares easily. AND he has great bike seats! We... more

Throughout my two and half week trek around Europe, this was my favorite activity... and in one of the most gorgeous cities to boot! On our last day in Paris and at the last minute, my friend and I decided to take this tour and are so glad that we did. We met our tour guide, Paul, at the meeting... more

This was the best thing we did in Paris. The bicycling was easy enough for anyone to do -- the tour is made up of short trips from site to site, not a continuous ride. The tour covered the districts surrounding the Ile de la Cite and that gives you a good sense of where everything is located so you... more

Hands down the best 30euros I spent in Paris! A lovely way to see a different side of Paris, away from the crowded main tourist attractions. The ride is safe, easy, informative and above all a lot of fun. Our guide Christian was great and filled with interesting stories and facts about Parisian history. Try to get on one of... more

A simple 3-hour bike ride through the maze that is Paris. A bit tiring for those not used to biking but very fun, enjoyable and well worth it. Starting off in a personalized group of 8-ish (two sets per time slot) and a tour of the sites (in English via a couple of New Zealand/UK-ers who've been here for over... more

Anyone can plan an excursion to the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe, and Notre Dame (which we also did and loved)........but we look back at our bike ride with Bike About Tours as a highlight of our week long Paris vacation with our 2 teen granddgts. We saw "inner Paris" like we would never have otherwise. Paul,... more

We mainly review restaurants and attractions through more local venues, but since we are from California, this is the place to do it! We joined Paul and the morning group in front of Notre Dame, and they were easy to find. After a short walk to their underground offices where the bikes are stored, we were off. Paul was "chatty"... more

Tired of museums and crowded, impersonal, typical sightseeing? Bike About Tours is the answer. Very easy riding, flat terrain, comfortable seats. See and hear about places and parts of Paris that I'm sure some Parisians don't even know are there. Our tour ended up at about 4 hours. We were sorry it was over. Don't miss it! more

We're not normally the kind of people who do tours, but we were only in Paris for a couple of days and having never been before decided that this may be a bit of fun, and it certainly was. Our guide Paul, also the co-owner, was very friendly and informative and cycling around Paris on a sunny september morning was... more

Did bike tour in early October. Weather was great. Tour guide was fun and informative. Tour went round pretty narrow side streets, along the banks of the Seine, on Ile de France, through the grounds of the Louvre, in and around Latin Quarter etc. We saw loads. Well worth doing. Very safe as there are lots of cycle lanes and... more
