A few years ago, my husband and I visited NOLA. He booked a bicycle ride for us with Eric at Flambeaux. I was a little reluctant since I'm over 60 but it was my favorite experience the whole time we were there. A few years later, our son joined us for a short visit because we wanted to show him the city. The one thing I insisted on was the bike tour with Flambeaux. Again, we all had a fantastic time. I think what sets this bike tour apart from others is that Eric has such a great personality and is knowledgeable and passionate about his hometown of NOLA. He does a great job giving an overview of the main areas and there is always plenty of time to stop and discuss the surroundings. Don't be turned off by the length of time....it flies and is not too strenuous. I definitely recommend Eric and Flambeaux Bicycle Tours.

This was one of our favorite activities of our trip. We had 2 adults and 2 teens, and all of us enjoyed our tour of the French Quarter and the Lower Garden District. On another visit, we will take another tour with this company, maybe to another neighborhood.

We had a fantastic time on this bike tour with Eric as our guide. He was a fantastic storyteller and the stops along the trip and the stories shared were a fabulous mix of history, architecture, and culture of New Orleans. Eric was fantastic at making sure we felt safe on our bikes, giving great instructions and stopping frequently to talk about sites and also let us cool down in the shade. His knowledge of New Orleans ran incredibly deep and he was excited to answer any questions we had along the way. We visited so many different neighborhoods and sites of New Orleans, seeing way more than we could have possibly done on foot! I would definitely recommend this tour as a part of your trip!

We learned more about the people, culture and history in 3 hours than we could imagine. Eric is so knowledgeable and passionate about his city (where his roots go back over two centuries) and his southern charm and hospitality make you feel like you’re hanging with an old friend. We only did a 3 hour tour, but I would have happily paid to spend the whole day with Eric and absorb more of what Eric could share. If you’re looking for ways to better understand New Orleans, don’t hesitate, book this now! We were lucky and had a small group of 4 (it was low season), so maybe our tour was more intimate (I think it can be as big as 10) and that helped. Thank you Eric for everything! It was the favourite part of our trip!

Friendly and accommodating. Grat bikes. Completely comfortable experience. These are my people for bikes in New Orleans, an amazing place to ride a bike. Always a highlight of my annual visit. Thank you!!!

I rented a bike. They were accommodating, responsive, and the bike was fun and with good lights and lock. I would recommend them for a tour or rental.

What a fantastic way to learn about the cultural history of this amazing city while getting a unique perspective on a bike! We were so lucky to have booked with Eric as our guide. I HIGHLY recommend you book with him. Not only has his family lived in New Orleans for generations, which gives him a unique view of life in New Orleans, but he has an incredibly genuine, passionate and enthusiastic delivery. His stories gave life to a city I never knew, and painted such a loving picture of the history of the city, its people and their culture. I learned something on every stop! No lie. The ride was smooth. The route through the city was interesting and exciting. Did not feel ‘touristy’ or corny. Really, A FANTASTIC way to experience the city of Bulbancha. I would do it again for sure. The giant green dragonfly that latched onto Eric’s pant leg near the end of our tour was awesome too.

Our tour guide Eric was amazing! Super charismatic and knowledgeable about NOLA. The tour was about 3 hours but it felt shorter because all the stops and history discussions went smoothly. Loved all the neighborhoods and our last stop in Treme. Would highly recommend!

WOW is all I can say! Eric goes above and beyond! This tour, hands down, was by far THE BEST! Eric's way of delivering NOLA's history was just incredible! He is so engaging, and makes sure that everyone feels a part of! He makes eye contact and delivers the history in such a way that you don't just listen, YOU HEAR! I toured with my 17 year old son and my 12 year old daughter, and we all agree that this tour was THE BEST, and we all LOVE Eric! He becomes your friend while on his tour! His welcoming energy, his passion, and his inherent love for his city and what he does is apparent! Thank you Eric beyond words for closing our vacation in NOLA as an incredible and memorable experience! We will see you next time! God bless you...

Took the city tour with Eric who was very hospitable, polite, great sense of humor, and above all extremely knowledgeable. I would definitely repeat if I ever visit again.

Cory was a great guide. I really enjoyed the ride and the history even though this wasn’t my first visit.

An active, fun, interesting way to learn about the city and its history. Very professional and would definitely book again. Perfect for a spring day and very convenient to have a coffee shop next door.

This bike tour is an absolute must when coming to NOLA. We did the 3 hour French Quarter/Marigny/ByWater & Treme tour. Epic!!! Learned so much and had a ton of fun. Eric you are amazing. Keep doing what you are doing. 100% recommend.

Our guide, Corey, seemed to know everyone in the city and was a wealth of knowledge about the history, architecture, and everything else we asked about. We had much fun and covered more ground in just a few short hours than we could have on foot. The break at Cafe DuMonde was perfect for beignets and hot cocoa. Highly recommend this tour if you want to learn more about New Orleans!

This tour is truly the best I’ve ever been on. It was freezing cold, and I was unprepared (clothes wise), and was in a horrible mood upon arrival. This tour was so good, that I enjoyed it in spite of the cold and my reluctance. Eric had us all hooked from the beginning to the end with his deep knowledge, humor, and incredible story telling. I’d go on this tour again whenever we make it back to New Orleans. So wonderful!
