Cycling around the sites of Mysore, and through back lanes, was a wonderful way to explore and understand this beautiful and historic Indian city. Ajay and Santosh were informative and friendly, adapting to our needs and preferences. Their bicyles were top quality. We even felt safe navigating busy main roads and roundabouts with their help!
What a great way to get around and fully experience city life - the guide was knowledgeable, we visited so many of the key places around Mysore and the small laneways we rode around gave us a unique insight into what life is like in the city. Would recommend
As a couple, we went on a cycle tour with Mysore By Cycle, and we truly had the best time. If you want to experience the real essence of the city, this is the best way to do it as a couple we felt the same. The tour starts at 7 AM and lasts around 3–4 hours. Cycling through calm lanes, stopping at unique heritage buildings, and getting to know the local culture and daily life made it truly special. Special mentions to our host Himanshu and co-host Santhosh for guiding us so safely and securely, and for making the entire experience comfortable and memorable. If you’re in Mysore, don’t miss out on this beautiful experience.
Great cycle tour of Mysore. Start and end point was convenient and easy to find. Himanshu and Santosh to great care to keep us safe in the traffic, on well maintained bikes. They explained the significance of lots of 'off the beaten track' sites. Lovely chai break and top class dosa breakfast. I would recommend 100%.
