What a wonderful day. The tour was fantastic. Bill , our guide was very knowledgeable taking us all around the San Francisco area. Could not of been any better. The e bikes were very easy to operate and made the climb over the golden gate a breeze.
Very nice tour, our guide was superb. He took a lot of pictures when we asked. Very patient and knowledgeable of the area. Definitely one of nicest bike tours we've had so far.
Rising e bikes across the Golden Gate Bridge and having lunch in Sausalito is a quintessential must do in San Francisco. The ride is quick so we only booked for two hours but I would recommend the half day to enjoy a longer lazier lunch and take your time exploring the return trip.
Our guide Peter was knowledgeable, funny, patient and very user friendly. It was our first time on electric bikes and he accommodated our needs perfectly. We would not hesitate to recommend this fantastic tour.
Thank you, George! Peter actually has his own YouTube channel and specializes in neighborhood history here in San Francisco. He's a fascinating guide. Thanks for the review!
Very good quality bike with excellent service. They allowed me to swap a bike when the battery was low. Came with bike locks so that I could park and navigate the shops on foot.
That sounds amazing! One of the things people don't always realize is that San Francisco is only 7 miles by 7 miles. That makes it incredibly easy to swing back by the shop and swap your bike when the battery is getting low. We're so glad you were able to take advantage of that service. Thanks for the great review!
Joel, our guide was entertaining, warm and extremely knowledgeable about all the different areas of the city we biked. He had a terrific sense of humor as well and I wanted to take him home! Lol The important thing to know is that crossing the bridge itself can be a stressful experience because of all of the pedestrians along with other cyclists. Other than that, not so much. I highly recommend it to anyone who cycles.
We love Joel. Thank you for the great review and come back anytime.
Highly recommended! You can take photos with amazing views, and it's about an hour's ride to Sausalito. The hills are challenging, so I recommend the electric bike option. Our guide, Toro, was very kind and friendly.
Sandra, so glad you enjoyed your tour with Toro. Yep, we agree that e-bikes are the way to go!
Great experience from the very beginning. They got us set up in SF and off quickly. Vedran led our tour. We ended up getting a private tour because of our time and the dreary weather. Vedran was so accommodating and included a ton of interesting facts. It was rainy and cold, but the time flew by. We were always kept at a comfortable pace, the bikes worked great, and he even stopped to make sure we got all of our touristy photos. Such a great way to see a lot of the city quickly. Crossing the Golden Gate Bridge was exhilarating (even though the wind was crazy). This is a MUST do in SF and highly recommend Vedran.
Thanks for your great recommendation on your guided tour with Vedran. Lucky you to get a private tour!
We had such a great experience with this company. Our family of four had a wonderful time with the electric bikes going along the Golden Gate Bridge. It was the highlight of our trip by far! All the staff members were so enthusiastic, so patient, and so kind! It was Thanksgiving too! I am so glad they were open and available to us. They were more than happy to assist us with helmet adjustments, instructions on how to use the bikes and helpful directions to help us get to our destination. One thing I might suggest is that they add a bell ringer in case we need it as we pass by other bikers. Other than that, it was a smooth and pleasant experience! I would highly recommend this company for bike rentals! I would definitely go back to them if we are ever back in town. You won't be disappointed. I would give them 10 stars if I could!
Karen, your review is music to our ears! We love hearing that your ride with us was the highlight of your visit to San Francisco. Side note, we do have bells on our bikes, so apologies if that wasn't pointed out. Come back again and ring your bell all the way across the Golden Gate Bridge!
We have a blended family including two 13 year olds and a 19 year old, our family of 5 had a wonderful time touring San Francisco with our amazing guide Orla! We feel very fortunate to have lucked out with her as our guide!!
We feel fortunate to have Orla on our team, as well!
