This was the most fun activity I did in Paris. Hannah was an excellent tour guide and very informative and interesting, while also being humorous. It was a great way to see the city.
We did the Hidden Paris Bike Tour and loved it! Our tour guide Ryan was so knowledgeable, had great passion, and made it fun and safe for the whole family. And with his professional acting skills, I think he is well on his way to becoming a Paris legend. Thanks so much Ryan! We saw and learnt so much that we would never have been able to do on our own. Most awesome tour ever, can’t recommend it highly enough.
We did the Hidden Paris tour. It was fantastic for both adults and kids. Ryan was an amazing guide.
Simon, our well knowledge guide provided an extremely exact paced bike tour. Simon keenly read the tours attendees to effectively understand how to navigate the tours route with his deep knowledge in a light hearted jovial manner. Highly recommend this tour to everyone seeking to discover Paris’ hidden gems. Jim formerly of Fresno, CA lol
AMAZING experience! Probably the highlight of our time in Paris. Ryan was knowledgeable and hilarious, and he made sure we were all safe navigating the city. We had a 9 & 11 year old with us and they loved it too! As long as you can ride a bike, you have the skill necessary. And, bonus! The espresso and breakfast we got at Le Pelaton Cafe (the meeting spot) was also delicious! I will recommend this experience to everyone I know coming to Paris!
Cedric was an excellent guide. It was a fun way to see some places in Paris not on the regular tourist list.
We enjoyed this bike ride. Jude was a fantastic guide who could tell very pleasantly. A fun way to get to know Paris in a different way.
We booked the “Hidden Paris” bike tour today (3 hours) and it is now the highlight of our whole stay in Paris. We absolutely LOVED it. Our kids (13 and 11) also thought it was totally awesome. We got a real feel for the vibe of Paris and our guide Cedric was AMAZING he told the most interesting stories and his knowledge of the history of Paris is incredible. We got to see so many amazing neighbourhoods, super cool sites and even the Emily in Paris locations. Highly recommend this tour to get a really cool sense of the real Paris. Can’t recommend this highly enough!!!! Thank you Cedric !!!
Ryan was an outstanding guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable about Paris and had a great sense of humor, which made the tour engaging and fun for both adults and kids. The ride took us through hidden parts of the city that we never would have discovered on our own, and we learned stories and history that you don't typically hear on standard sightseeing tours. It was a fantastic way to experience a different side of Paris. Highly recommend this tour for the whole family!
An awesome bike tour on the ins and outs of Paris. Simon was a super engaging guide, with lots of stories and personal insights. He showed us how to look beyond and into the hidden courtyards. I have done other more traditional bike tours of the main sights, this was a good one to do if you have been to Paris a few times and want a deeper experience. Thanks Simon
