I liked this tour very much. The guides were very friendly (yes, two guides. The main guide and another one who stays last to make sure traffic doesn't hurt us and that no one is left behind). The food was very good, and the church to which we went made us feel very welcome. Highly recommend the C tour -... more

Dear Jesse, In the name of the four of us, I want to thank you again for the wonderful and interesting tour we made together last Sunday and the fact that we could enjoy this in sunny & dry weather thanks to your flexibility. We realize that our request was not so simple especially on a Sunday and at the... more

I wanted to do something a bit out of the ordinary on my trip to NY, and wanted to see more of the city aside from the usual tourist sights. I found ‘Bike the Big Apple’ on Google and thought I’d try it out. I booked the ‘Twilight Tour’ – fantastic!!! One of the main highlights, after the realization that... more

It was an excellent day out. Our guide's commentary was informative and fascinating and we were shown places that we would not have got to by ourselves. Compliments also for the standard of care and safety while we were cycling around. more

Loved it!

We took the Tuesday Bike Tour D through Lower Manhatten and Brooklyn Heights and liked it so much we signed up for another one two days later that went to Upper Manhattan, Bronx and Harlem. Our tour guides Marc and Jessie were great! They obviously love the city and biking and their enthusiasm was contagious when showing us the sights... more

We are a cycling London family who did an all day bike tour of Manhattan which was wonderful - a superb way to see the city. I had a real moment of complete joy and wonderment when I cycled down the middle of Fifth Avenue (wow!, I'm in NYC! And on a bicycle!), and again on the very special Brooklyn... more

We were phoned early morning and asked if we still wanted to go ahead with our secret streets tour of lower Manhattan and Brooklyn Heights as the weather was forecast to be quite wet. We were really glad we went ahead because although the weather was abysmal we had a fantastic time. Oddly for someone who is too scared to... more

I would rate it 10 out of 5 if I could. You will see so much more than by trying to walk and also much more than if you were driving or on public transit. There is no comparison. They have professional and attentive staff as well as fantastic guides. We requested to ride a tandem bike and they graciously... more

Participated in "The Delights of Brooklyn Tour" with my wife and friend. Thoroughly enjoyed the day with Jesse and Mark - both knowledgeable, patient and easy going. Highlights included the bridge crossings, the views and of course the beer at Brooklyn Breweries. Would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys fresh air and easy riding -especially those looking to get away... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday bike tour with Jesse & Sarah. Taking a "Bike the Big Apple" tour is one of the most unique and effective ways to experience New York. The Sunday tour is especially unique. We were welcomed with open arms into the congregation of the East Mt. Olive Baptist Church services in Harlem. Once inside, Jesse was... more
