This was a very carefree and informational way to see Savannah. It was fun and our guide was fantastic. EJ was great and light hearted, we loved hanging with him.
We had a great tour with Melissa! First time in Savannah, and we love to bike, so this tour felt like a natural way to see the historic downtown and squares! What sold me on them over the other company was 1. the ear pieces (so you can hear everything) - awesome. 2. the option to keep the bikes after the tour (we turned ours in by closing around 5) We really enjoyed having the bikes for the day - were able to visit the farmers market in Forsyth Park, the Jepson Museum, and also hit up River St, so we were able to get around to see a lot! Getting around was easy on the bikes (always felt safe), the info/history was great and entertaining, and she even gave a lot of recommendations on food options which was a nice little bonus! It was a fun way to get the history of Savannah (esp in the heat - don't think we'd make it walking around for hours!). Highly recommend them for this bike tour!
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We're thrilled you chose to explore Savannah with us and that Melissa helped make your first visit such a memorable one. We're glad you enjoyed the wireless earpieces and our all-day bike rental. It sounds like you made the most of your day with visits to the Forsyth Park Farmers Market, the Jepson Museum, and River Street! Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to see you again the next time you're in Savannah for another ride!
We enjoy bike tours when we visit cities, and our tour with Ron did not disappoint. I was looking forward to learning all I could about Savannah, and this tour included all the interesting details. We found ourselves referencing the tour information for the rest of the day. Thanks for a great time!
Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad Ron helped make your visit to Savannah such a memorable one.

We'll be sure to pass your kind words along to Ron. Thanks again for riding with us—we hope to see you the next time you're back in Savannah!
The staff and tour guide Melissa were awesome. Fun and Exciting! Learned a ton about the history, culture, and eateries of Savannah. Thank You!
It was such a pleasure hosting you both! Thank you for the kind words, we're very happy to hear you enjoyed the tour!
Got to see many of the squares. Very informative guide. Lots of history. Not family friendly for kids under 5, there were 2 little ones on our tour and after an hour they were board and cried the rest of the ride. We ran late due to stops to calm them down.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the tour experience was not consistent with the high standard we strive to provide for all of our guests. We welcome riders of all ages on our tours and do our best to provide detailed information about the experience (including the length of the tour, the amount of riding involved, and the fact that it is a history-focused tour) so that parents can determine whether it will be a good fit for their children. While many families enjoy the tour together, every child is different, and we understand that a two-hour guided tour can be challenging for some younger children. We appreciate you sharing your experience, as it helps other families make informed decisions when planning their visit. We're glad you enjoyed seeing Savannah's beautiful squares and found the tour informative, and we thank you for choosing to ride with us. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Savannah and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again on a future visit.

Ron was a great and knowledgeable guide. The pace was perfect for us. We learned a lot about Savannah's history and architecture while visiting all of the squares. It was nice to keep the bikes for a few hours afterwards to revisit some of the sights without having to walk since we had been putting in 20K+ days for the last few days.
