We did the Friday night tour with Pat and it was such a great way to see the city! We decided to go back the next morning to do the gangster tour with Anthony with the culminating point biking through active mob section of the city, and it was a blast. It was my 18 year old's highlight. We learned... More

Well organized, good equipment, safety conscious, well-informed guide. Nice pace allowed for all participants and allowed time at several stops for photos and exploring. We did the lakeshore route and recommend it.

This bike tour was excellent - great way to see the different neighborhoods in the city. The guide Eddy was also really great - knew lots about the city, and made the trip a lot of fun!

My wife and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary on this bike hike and it was great! Our guide DK was very organized and provided a history lesson that clearly showed he loves what he does, and we did too. Thanks, The Sully's

Pat was a fantastic and fun guide. I've been telling all my friends about this tour! I couldn't believe we were able to ride in downtown Chicago ... the food stops were fun and tasty and the ride back along the lakeshore had the best views. I would do this again in a minute!

We did the Chicago "neighbourhoods "tour in Chicago. The bikes were perfect in every way, they were comfortable and well maintained. Importantly, the safety session was complete, prior to the ride. Guides Eddie and Nathan were impressive, they were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Chicago. They lead the the tour in a very professional manner. We learned a lot and... More

We were in Chicago earlier this week and we took their Bikes, Bites and Brew tour. It was one of the most imaginative, interesting and filling bike tour I have ever been on. The guide was funny and informative and the pizza, cupcakes and beers made this one of the most memorable of bike tours I have ever been on.

I was a little skeptical about going on a bike tour because the weather hasn't been great throughout our stay in Chicago but thankfully it changed. The bike tour was definitely a great way to see, even just a glimpse of the city. Eddy with his two other guides in training were both informative and entertaining. I would do it... More

I went on the neighborhood 3 hour tour and it was great. Tim mixed the right amount of history and biking. I saw more of Chicago and learned more about the city than I ever had on my 3 previous visits. I highly recommend this tour.

Went on Bobbys bike tour with 10 members of a family group. Did the bikes, and brews tour. It was great fun and our guide Tim was really nice. The food on the tour is yum too so go with an empty stomach as you get lots of it! Nutella cupcake was the highlight for me :-)
