    A great bike ride to Golden Gate Bridge

    Antonella_M, Jun 2025
    There are many steep parts to the itinerary. Get an e-bike if you are not fit. The wind can also pose an obstacle.

    We had a great experience as a family! Will remember that experience for a lifetime. Saw the most amazing views while biking.

    Do NOT rent through VIATOR, go to UNLIMITED Bikes and reserve with them

    Cynthia_R, Jul 2024
    The one star is NOT related to The poor experience was not related to Unlimited Bikes they are top notch. This was due to VIATOR. It was a complete cluster finding reservation, having to call VIATOR 4 times in order to recieve confirmation and tickets, even though the charge you immediately. The best help we received was from the company itself. My bike ended up with a broken chain, this happens, but they were very quick to come assist us. My advice, reserve your bike from Unlimited Bikes and NOT Viator. The staff are excellent, helpful, and the patience they had to resolve our reservation exceeded expectations. Again DOT NOT rent from VIATOR go to UNLIMITED BIKES for the best experience.

    Great experience

    This was a great way to see the bridge and the outskirts of San Francisco. Great cycle paths and easy to find route.

    We chose the comfort...

    Kristin_K, Oct 2022
    We chose the comfort e-bike and really enjoyed the ease of use. Our trip over the Golden Gate Bridge was so much fun.

    Do not recommend

    Kristine_S, Oct 2022
    Your name is misleading. There's a Golden Gate Bridge Bike rental place and unfortunately people go there which is 1/2 away from the Wharf! The facility was dirty, my bike kept changing gears, my husband's bike broke 10 on our ride, we did not get a bike lock so we were unable to go into any stores.

    Great company

    Diane_L, Aug 2022
    Awesome experience! The whole family loved biking to Sausalito! Unlimited biking were pros. Especially Sadiq! We had everything we needed in minutes and we were off! Would def recommend this company!

    Awful service

    JULIA_B, Jun 2022
    I had a serious accident and when we called the office and told them I needed to go to the emergency room, they said we had to return the bikes beforehand, as they refused to come and collect them for us.

    Scam

    Sangmin_C, May 2022
    I went to Golden Gate Bridge Bike Rentals at 2157 Lombarb st. Apparently this is not the shop where my reservation was and that there was an imposter shop with the same name. I could not locate where that shop was with my reservation. There was no address info in any of the email confirmation, theres only one Gold Gate Bridge Bike Rental on Google and I was at the wrong shop. Wasted $45, no refund was provided.

    Great experience

    Amanda_H, Apr 2022
    Christian was very helpful and the bikes were in full working order and comfortable to ride. Great way to see the city!

    Cool ride

    Tiago_F, Mar 2022
    Great price for a great day! It was very easy to book and it turned out to be much cheaper Booking online

    One Day in San Francisco

    Crystal_R, Jan 2022
    My husband and I visited San Francisco from Houston. Knowing we only planned to be there for the day we wanted bikes so we could move around the city at our own pace. Golden Gate Bike Rentals was by far the least expensive option. The bikes were in great shape. The gentleman that assisted us was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of the area. He readily offered suggestions on the best routes to see the bridge. We thoroughly enjoyed our time! I will say this. If you’re not an avid rider, getting across the bridge is work. As a matter of fact getting around around the city is a great workout. We had to walk our bikes uphill more than once and met several other bikers doing the same. If you’re up for the challenge it’s totally worth the effort though. We went from the bike shop to the bridge, to Pacific Heights, and back to the bike shop in just a couple hours.

    Refund please.

    Erica_G, Sep 2021
    It wasnt great. The bike shop was closed when I made my reservation and I'm still waiting for my refund.

    Enjoyed Biking at SF on July 4th

    Muralidhar, Jul 2021
    Bike ride across Golden Gate on July 4th was beautiful. Round trip from Ghiradelli to Mill Valley was approx 28+ miles. Ride was completed in under 4 hrs. We were a party of 7 and it wad our first time using electric bikes. Riding the slopes of San Francisco was effortless. Service was great

    Great!

    Olvis77, Oct 2019
    Good bikes - perfect condition, adequate for city, great service. Good way to see the city. If not too sporty, choose an e-bike!

    Amazing place and great cycling.

    Graham_B, Oct 2019
    Great deal .Good price. Excellent service from a lovely member of staff. Bikes needed a bit of love. Gears weren't quite right and one threw its chain off a couple of times. Not a big deal and we loved our ride around this amazing city.

    All good

    Daniel_H, Jun 2024
    Friendly staff, good bikes. We had a good adventure. Freundliche Mitarbeiter, gute Fahrräder. Wir hatten Spaß.

    Een kaart voor een paar uur is genoeg

    Sjoerdtje_d, Jul 2023
    Fantastisch. Je moet wel even flink op de trappers staan om boven te komen. Maar zeker de moeite waard.

    La balade est magnifique...

    Maxime_V, Jul 2023
    La balade est magnifique le faire à vélo c'est vraiment bien par contre le prestataire loueur de vélo aucun conseil pas de carte le service était minimum

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Maxime, I'm so sorry to hear that you did not feel like there was no support! We always provide a map, lock, helmet, basket/bike bag with all rentals. Were you able to ask our team for help on where to go when you rented? Please feel free to ask our team as they are all familiar and local to the area!

    Boussra_M, Aug 2022
    We hadden even in de rij gestaan met een brutaal stel voor ons maar de medewerker bleef enorm rustig en oplossingsgericht

    Super expérience

    Pierre_S, Aug 2022
    Vélo en bon état et possibilité de conserver lés vélo jusqu’à 19h30 ce qui permet de visiter plusieurs endroits en ville et de découvrir San Francisco sans se presser

    Goede service en fietsen

    Amin_S, Aug 2022
    Alles was goed geregeld en de fietsen waren goed onderhouden. Service was uitstekend. Dus zeker aan te raden.

    Traversée du golden gate en famille !

    Marjorie_G, Jul 2022
    Traverser le golden gate en vélo est une expérience sympathique en famille. Dommage que ma réservation n'est pas été respectée en sa totalité car j'avais demandé 3 VTT et 1 vélo électrique que je n'ai pas eu chez le prestataire unlimited bikes. Cela a un peu gâché le parcours. Il faut que vous rajoutiez le choix des vélos électriques sur votre site car malgré mes 3 appels passés auprès de votre service client qui m'a garanti que je pourrai changer ma réservation auprès du prestataire le jour J cela n a pas été le cas. C'est à revoir.

    Día de felicidad en golden gate en bici

    IVANADENISE_C, Apr 2022
    Excelente experiencia! Gran opción cruzar el puente en bici. Llegamos hasta Sausalito. Súper buenas bicis. Excelente servicio

    Einzigartiges Erlebnis

    Justus_V, Mar 2020
    Es war ein unfassbar schönes Erlebnis mit dem Fahrrad die vorgeschlagene Route abzufahren. Alle waren super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das einzig negative waren tatsächlich die unbequemen Rennradsättel und die Nichtverfügbarkeit von Damenrädern.

    Très belle expérience San Francisco à vélo !

    Noemie_T, Oct 2019
    Très bon accueil, super matériel, loueur bien situé pour effectuer la traversée du Golden Gate Bridge !
