Everything about this tour was just great! It was our first morning in Paris. We were very fortunate to have a beautiful day. The meeting place was easy to go to via Uber. The staff was super nice and accommodating. The gearing was easy and fast. Our guide was alex. He was safety first and had a fun and cool take on all the historical sites we visited and a true historian…napoleons tomb, the louvre, the Eiffel Tower and a few other places. It wasn’t too long a ride and it wasn’t too short. We had a blast! Met cool fun people and fams. We would absolutely do it again!! Thanks to everyone there and especially to Alex!!!

Top marks Toby!

Dave was a great tour guide. He provided lots of information, answered questions, gave good instructions on biking in Paris and took lots of group photos. He was easy to understand and really told the stories for each of the places we visited.
The ride is easy and made seeing lots of things in a shorter time a good way to get around.
Dave was attentive to each person in the group making sure we were safe and together. He also offered personal suggestions and answered questions for each group.
We wish we could have bought their T-shirt’s but they didn’t have our sizes.
Highly recommend

Annie was our guide and made everything so fun and informative. My two teenagers weren't overly excited about going and it ended up being their favorite part of our entire vacation!
Chris_P, Nov 2025
Very relaxing, enjoyable and informative. Would recommended it to any who can ride a bike. Andrea was great.
davidahyman, Oct 2025
Around 8 miles, easy with a lot of French history. Guide was great and spoke perfect English since he likewise is a California native.

Jenn was a great guide that gave a super history lesson without being boring. We thoroughly enjoyed!
Barbie_M, Sep 2025

Soto conducted a fun and informative tour. We loved how much of Paris we were able to explore on bikes.
Kimberly_R, Sep 2025
We did a bike tour to Versailles and our tour guide, Nick, is amazing! He had great stories and waited for everybody. Nick took account of everyone’s needs and had great recommendations! Definitely must do the Versailles bike/palace tour!
Natalie_S, Sep 2025
Great way to discover Paris with an expert. Staff were all great, especially our guide Amir. Loved it! Could have done longer than 3 hours.
Andrew_S, Sep 2025
Would recommend smaller group. We were a group 12 and it was challnging to cross intersections and listen into the group leader. Great way to see some sights in the city, fun leader, comfortable bikes
Brian_F, Sep 2025
Rory did a great job! He made it interesting and fun. The bike ride was an easy way to see the highlights of Paris.
sharlene_w, Sep 2025
There are not helmets provided. Too many bikers per excursion.
Our guide was pleasant and we stayed on time. Some good information but no fun details.
Suzanne_G, Sep 2025
One of the most enjoyable tours we have ever taken. Milan our guide was excellent, extremely knowledgeable and humorous. Felt safe at all times while negotiating the Parisian traffic. A beautiful way to spend a morning in Paris.
Nicholette_P, Sep 2025
The bikes were comfortable and the tour was an easy way to get around the city with a local guide. Highly recommend.
Michael_D, Aug 2025
It’s a good itinerary but the tour is quite slow with too many bikers per group (~15) making it cumbersome. The message and delivery of the tour guide could also be tighter to make the tour end on time (it did not end on time).
Alisha_B, Aug 2025
Wonderful experience. Best of all the tours we took in Paris. Hit all the major attractions with really interesting history along the way!
Aaron_S, Aug 2025
This bicycle tour was well done. The sites we saw were well planned out, and although you will bike for the 3 hours, there are plenty of breaks and stops in the shade. Would be best to do on a cool or overcast day, which we did not have. It was sunny and hot. So bring with you a refillable water bottle, a hat, and put on sunscreen during the summer months. But you will see all the major attractions, so this is good for people who are just arriving for the first time to Paris to see a lot and get their bearings on a section of the city.
Megan_H, Aug 2025
Waste of money. This “tour” involved a guide walking us to the Eiffel tour ticket que line and then buying tickets for us. We could have done it ourselves and saved hundreds. There was no tour or information given about the Eiffel Tower. Do not use this company.
Nicole_S, Aug 2025
I just had the most enjoyable experience in Paris!! It’s my third time here, but it was the first time doing this bike tour, and I’m in love with it! Fabian was our guide, explaining in a really fun way all about the history of iconic Paris places! I’d definitely do it again on my next time in here! Even that I know how to ride a bike I was a bit concerned about traffic, but it was all very easy and well guided! And the last and most important, Cheers for his parents whom did a calculation of which how many pans you need to build the Eiffel tower, a very important data that only if you are luck enough to do the tour with him you can figure it out! Hahahaha cheers again! Loved!

Great way to experience the city of Paris.
Staff are very friendly, good local knowledge and appears a well run company. Would highly recommend
mic_B, Aug 2025
To explore Paris by bike is the best way. We had a perfect guide "Amir" who was very friendly and explained everything. Viator is top organized. All easy.
Jacqueline_J, Jul 2025
This was a very organised tour from start to finish. Our guide was great. Would thoroughly recommend.
Keri_M, Jul 2025
Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun to be around. We had a great time! My hubby and I agreed this was our favorite thing to do in Paris.
Alison_M, Jul 2025
This is an awesome experience to do with your family. Easy ride around famous spots in Paris. Our family had a great time
Teresa_O, Jul 2025
We had an amazing time and our guide (Annie) was very informative and fun to ride around the city with!
Kirsten_O, Jul 2025
I did this with my 4 children aged between 8 and 13 - what an awesome activity! Great way to see the local sights. Our guide, Emma, was very patient and knowledgeable. We were able to stop to take pics. All in all a fabulous experience!
Lisa_M, Jul 2025
The tour company (FAT TIRES) was very accomondating when we were running late for the group. Once we joined, Fabian was extremely engaging in sharing insights and history about the sights. The biking was a fantastic way to see the sights and get a feel for the city. Very enjoyable and highly recommend!
Karen_R, Jul 2025
We had just under 24 hours in Paris. Our tour guide Daniel was amazing! He knew so much of the history but made it fun! We hit all the major spots and he was very cautious of how we were doing along the way. Providing shade and water (during an unexpected heat wave)
