My husband and I were in Kingston for three days, and it was our first visit. This bike tour was the perfect way to get an overview of the city and to learn about its history. Jeff is a good storyteller and seemed to spend just the right amount of time at each stop. The bikes he provided were excellent and--although we're in our 70's and it was a VERY hot day--we were comfortable with the ride. (Well, I did have to walk my bike briefly on the one big hill we encountered but, otherwise I'd say that the pedaling was easy,) I highly recommend this tour.

My favorite part about this tour was the stories! Jeff is the best kind of historian - the story-telling kind. He paints word-pictures that make you feel like you've been transported back in time. He speaks of historical events as if he were recounting them first-hand, all the while never compromising the facts. He respects history. It's also inspiring how he brings you to an appreciation of the city's architecture. He reveals how the mortar, brick, stone and architects of the homes and monuments weave together to make up the fabric of the city. He casually draws out the rich history, juicy details and unknown tidbits of nice but, otherwise, unassuming buildings hiding in plain view. He's also super nice and humble and really cares about you.
Thanks, Jeff, for an amazing day!!

Jeff provided us with an excellent and thorough bike tour throughout Kingston. We learned a great deal of history, and saw many sites. He is a wonderful story teller, so the whole tour was very entertaining. The bike tour was nicely paced with no difficult biking sections (one wee hill!). We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon.

This experience exceeded expectations. If you are interested in history you will enjoy this tour! Our guide Jeff was personable, attentive, prepared and very knowledgeable on the sights and landmarks he took us to see. It was a beautiful day to bike around parts of Kingston we would never have seen, learning the history and offering a foundation of information for future visits. The bicycles were in prime condition, easy to ride and the seats very comfortable. We were even provided a bottle of water! Highly recommend this experience !
