About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Huntinghouse0 contributionsGreat Location Near Central ParkOur family (M, D and 11-year-old) rented e-scooters here. Scooters worked great. We took them all through Central Park during our 2-hour rental. Helmets were provided w/ the rental. This place is very conveniently located, too.Written July 1, 2024
- Biker_Couple_110 contributionsFun and easyIt was fun for us first-timers and easy. Philip was very personable and led the group of cyclists and sooterers (?) well.Written June 18, 2024
- Trek175994126910 contributionsFabulous and funny trip round Central ParkPhilip was a great tour guide keeping us safe on a fun family ride around Central Park. We learnt much about the history of the park, film and TV locations, plus a few hidden gems we'd never have found without him. We chose the 9am start to avoid the heat of the day, which was ideal as we were all done by 11am, leaving us with plenty on time to do other things that day. The bikes aren't brilliant, but more than capable of a 5 mile gentle ride through the park. One of our real highlights of the 5 day trip. Thank you!Written May 31, 2024
- CulturaltravelerM0 contributionsGreat time in Central ParkThe weather was just perfect, so we decided last minute to do this bicycle tour with... 48 people. We had such a great time, thanks to a perfect organization chich provided good bikes for a special ride in NYWritten November 20, 2023
- JessB3670 contributionsLovely tour with knowledgeable guideI really enjoyed this tour the day before the marathon. Phillip was very entertaining, the route was pleasant and he even took us to the marathon finish so we could see it before the big day.Written November 5, 2023
- barty10000 contributionsFabulous fun way to see all of Central Park!We booked a 2 hour e-scooter trip around Central Park with guide Philip and what an amazing and fun experience it was. Zipping around the park on scooters with zero effort means you can savour the sights and sounds of the park!! Point of note - there are some quite hilly sections towards the back end of the park after the reservoir so having an e-scooter meant we could get around quickly and easily. Watching the cyclists struggle on the hilly sections in the heat made us glad we had chosen electric scooters! Philip was very knowledgeable about the history and origins of the park. He made the trip fun and entertaining and the time flew by. We enjoyed it so much we returned and hired the scooters again - on our own this time. You get to see the whole of the park that you wouldn’t be able to do on foot. You do have to dismount in places though and walk to some of the spots for photos as you cannot access the smaller paths for safety reasons but other than that was simply great ! Easily the most fun thing we did in NYC! Highly recommended!!Written September 20, 2023
- karendB110AK0 contributionsGreat way to see Central Park. Definitely recommendGuide was great. Very knowledgeable and personable. Bike fitting was non existent. Bikes were ok but not great. Need water bottle holders.Written July 24, 2023
- RRG0050 contributionsLazy Employee at desk at 117 WBe careful…..there are 2 locations for this business I bought the ride at 117 W 58th St When I walked into the building….there was only 1 customer in front of me….who was turned away…. I found out then that I was being turned away…. The guy at the desk asked me which address I bought my excursion through…. I responded “I’m assuming here since this is where the map brought us to!” He quickly responded …..no you need to go to the other location down the street…. We arrived to the other location which had a very long line….evidently the guy at 117 W was sending everyone there!!! We barely made it to have our allotted 2 hour ride The gal at the desk was great….appeared to be the only one that spoke English… She offered us helmets….but I didn’t realize that we should have also been offered locks and a map. Anyway we had fun riding our bikes around Central Park but be aware….there are hills!Written July 19, 2023
- Sdangie20 contributionsFun central park activityFun activity 😊Great way to see Central Park, Phillip was a nice tour guide and provided really good info regarding history of Central Park 🙁 my only suggestion would be for the guide to slow down a bit on his scooter so that those who are on regular bikes can keep up. Many times I felt like I was on the tour by myself I would still recommend this tourWritten June 30, 2023
- jennyc2120180 contributionsGreat bike tour!This bike tour was great from start to finish. The instructions were clear. We had no issue arriving at the pick up location. We were met by the staff at the bike store. We were paired with our tour guide Philip who did a great job giving us history of Central Park, he was funny and understanding of us having kids which slowed us down a bit. I would recommend to anyone.Written June 7, 2023
- CheshireLaddie0 contributionsApril Cycle Ride in Central ParkInteresting 2 hour bike tour around Central Park. Guide Isaac provided a detailed history of the park from it formation to current day. Route was easy to ride. Tour started at 10am I would advise arriving at 9.30 as the Unlimited Rental site he’s very busy with long queues for rental forming quickly. You can opt to take out voluntary insurance at $10 per bike. Bikes were in an okay standard condition good enough for a 5 mile ride round the park but not for longer rides.Written April 8, 2023
- cmyssyk0 contributionsDiscovering again Central ParkAaron was really good, and we where able to see everything that was meaningfull. Weather was perfect and the group as well.Written October 9, 2022
- chuckdU4944BB0 contributionsFraudulent 5pm tour, refund pending indefinitely!I booked a reservation for 5pm for the tour, which apparently did not exist. A few hours before the tour was scheduled to start, a Peter McGovern of the tour called to inform Trip Advisor posted the 5pm tour time in error and the tour is only scheduled at noon. Upon requesting a full refund for a scheduled tour which did not exist, he assured me I would receive a full refund confirmed in an email sent to the same email address I used to book the tour, within a couple minutes after our conversation ended. A day later, I have not received this email confirmation nor a full refund. Obviously, this tour smacks of fraud and the charge for the tour I intend to contest.Written September 10, 2022
- lanagoder0 contributionsGood ride overall! Come earlier. Cafe as a bonus!Pros: - Quick 2+ hours ride in Central Park with a nice morning weather (we did the 10 am one) - Short line, fast check-in if you purchased your tickets online (we did via TripAdvisor and just showed one barcode from Apple Wallet for 3 tickets) - Highlights overview with the guide - Good for saving time - Great location, very close to the Central Park and as a bonus right next to a cute and tasty Cafe Serafina - we went there for lunch right after the ride. Cons: - Not organized gear pickup guidance, nobody really will help you unless you ask. - Nobody tells you upfront that you don’t need a helmet unless you’re under 14 y.o. We were wondering around looking for helmets and thought that everyone must wear one until we asked an employee. - Nowhere in the instructions it says that you have to come ahead of time (but you do need at least 10 min to check-in, try and get a bike, helmets for kids, find your guide) - No way to see/choose in advance your guide. Our guide had a very thick French accent that was quite hard to understand, even though I’m bilingual and have been living in the states for more than a decade. - The guide has no microphone, so it’s hard to hear what they say sometimes. - If you have older or not very fit family members, they will be behind the pack. Sometimes the guide turns at unexpected point and the ones who behind might not see the signal. Stay close together as much as you can and keep an eye on the guide’s trajectory. - Sometimes it’s hard to distinguish who’s from your group. I wish they had some colorful stuff or bikes that easy to spot. - All bikes look the same, I wish they all had numbers, so it’s easy to find yours after each sightseeing stop.Written July 5, 2022
- 923stefaniee0 contributionsFun, informative tour!Fantastic morning in the Park with a top notch, very personable tour guide. So glad we did this instead of riding around on our own. The history and hidden gems were so worth it!Written June 6, 2022

Everyone was very nice and helpful. Their service was wonderful! I made the mistake of not knowing my way around Central Park or the neighborhoods. I was not aware that when I reserve the bikes, the bike shop was a few blocks away from Central Park. I assumed that the bike shop was in central park or right next to it. Because I did not feel comfortable having my kids ride through traffic to get to Central Park, I asked for a refund/cancellation when we arrived at the store. The employee was very nice and told me about the companies closer location. We walked to that location and rented our bikes from that place. There are different locations to ranger bicycles. In the future we will rent at the location either right in the park, or right next to the park. Again, I did not know that there were different locations and was not familiar with the area. I assumed renting bikes in Central Park meant that the bikes would be in Central Park, not a few blocks away. Now I know. They were very accommodating to us. Thank you.

The company has “barkers”out at every corner. Looking to rent bikes. I had The New York Pass for my five day stay. Looking for the location of bike rental which came with the pass. He showed me brochure with the New York Pass clearly written in the NYC Bike Rental info. Great ..... so aggressively he led my daughter and I away from where we were. Several blocks away to the location. Taking up a lot of time and walking. After fitted for bikes I was sent to the desk to give my ID. At that time I was charged $44 for two DELAPITATED bikes. I again said I had the New York Pass. Told her the man that spoke to me and personally led me to the company told me it was honored for included bike rental. She told me the guy passing our their brochures and carrying their poster worked for himself !?! They said oh sorry...wrong location. At that point I paid the cash and left because of the time it sucked out of our day. I expressed my issue and they could care less. Tough feeling when you realize you were scammed. My daughters bike skipped gears all day. It was a tough tough ride. Knowing I would have zero customer service we sucked it up. Lesson learned. $44 way over charged. Plenty of other bike rentals around the park for less. Beware It’s no more than a bait and switch.
