Alex was very knowledgeable of the history of this city and gave good detail at each stop. Bikes were new and in good condition. Do be aware that you are riding in and around cars and pedestrians.

The guide was excellent . Bucharest is not a great place for cycling the tour was very good but only covered the same places as a walking tour - the bike was not necessary

Fantastic way to see so many sites and not walk many km. Great guide too. Should be good on a bike though because you wind through all sorts of places.
Louise_C, Nov 2024
The guide was excellent - really friendly and knowledgeable. The tour was great and showed us all the main areas. Biking is such a good way to see the city and I learnt lots.

Aleks provided great historical background on areas of the city in an entertaining manner; our entire family enjoyed the experience!
James_K, Jun 2024
Great tour, great stories, funny guy! Streets are narrow and busy with pedestrians so you will need to be confident on a bike
GeraldPeter_D, Jun 2024
Deeply knowledgeable guide provided a terrific amount of information on Romanian history, culture, current events and more while safely cruising Bucharest streets and old town walkways
Bonnie_D, May 2024
This was our first bike tour with the kids (10, 13) and everyone had a fantastic time! The route was designed to keep us off busy roads and visited many different landmarks in the city. Our guide Alex was full of interesting history stories to keep the whole family engaged, and when rain hit and we had to quickly pivot the plan he found a place for us to duck inside to a restaurant and wait it out until we could continue. Overall a really great experience!

Lucia was wonderful. She was very accommodating to my 10 year old and made sure the bicycle and helmet were a good fit. She had lots of history and information about Bucharest as well as helpful tourist information along the way. We had a great time. Bucharest is a beautiful city and a wonderful experience from a bicycle.

Great tour. Wonderful way to see the city. Alex knows his stuff. Drove all over the main points of the city and showed us all we needed to know.
Ahmed_J, May 2022
Alexandru was amazing. You can truly see how much he loves his city with the passion he explains the history to you. It took about 3 hours for the tour, and he made sure to stop and explain each site to you in detail. One of the best tours I’ve ever been on. Highly recommend this tour. I promise you that you won’t regret it.
Aisling_O, Nov 2021
Excellent tour. Our tour guide Alex was very knowledgable and happy to answer any questions we had. We got to see the main attractions in Bucharest on a 2 hour bike tour. It was great value for money and I would recommend it to someone wanting a short tour with excellent tour guide.
Victor_S, Oct 2021
Alex was such an amazing tour guide. My friend and have been traveling through Europe for 5 weeks now, and we have participated in a lot of tours with a lot of different tour guides. Alex was by far one of the best guides if not the best. He’s very knowledgeable, and at the same time he’s very friendly, funny and outgoing. He succeeded in not only providing an educational tour but also a very funny and interesting tour. We can definitely recommend this tour!
Michelle_L, Jul 2021
Alex is one of, if not the best bike tour host I’ve ever had on a trip. Taking a bike tour has been the number one favorite part of every international vacation I take. This one was better because we had each place we went explained and connected to Romanian history. I could say more - he’s very funny, he has really nice bikes with locks, lights and bells and baskets. Absolutely the best quality. Alex stopped and made sure we had a drink and special Chocolate!! And when it started to rain he brought us to a wonderful cafe and we visited. Thank You!! We loved it so much!! If you go on this tour your money will get you more than you expected ❤️
