We've rented from Bike and Roll in other cities and we've never been disappointed. There are several other bike companies but this one is the most reliable with locations at Central Park, Pier 84, Battery Park and Brooklyn. And you can return the bikes to any location free of charge. The bikes are always in good condition and I suggest... More

We had a brilliant time biking through central park, it really is a great way to get a taster of the place. We picked up from tavern on the green and after the slight confusion on what our voucher entitled us to we were on our way! We only had the bikes for two hours but I feel we made... More

We were a family of 3 that took a bike tour along the river and through Central Park. It was really fun and the guide knew his stuff, gave us lots of time when we needed to go find mittens in a store because it was FREEZING! We learned lots of tidbits and saw all of Central Park. It was... More

We went on a guided bike tour that went over the Brooklyn Bridge. Our guide was excellent and the bikes were in good shape. We enjoyed the tour so much we kept the bikes and went nto Centrl Park on our own. We will definitely do this again.

This was our favorite part of our trip to NYC! Our tour guide (EJ) was very knowledgeable about the history of the park and all the points of interest. The bikes were top quality which is very important. After reading reviews, I am glad we chose Bike and Roll. Great location...exceeded all expectations...highly recommend.

Chuck, our guide, was a New Yorker through and through and I think this helped with the authenticity of the tour. We took off up the West side of Manhattan where we saw kids playing baseball in the park. This for me was incredible to see on an island where every square foot is developed for maximum $. We were...

Tour guide was the best. He was professional, interesting, courteous & considerate of our younger daughter who was a bit slower. Central park was great... More

Saw a special on Gilt City and thought this could be a fun way to spend a Saturday morning. The tour was a lot of fun, and got us to an area of the city we don't explore that often. Our tour guide (Bob) was very friendly, funny and knowledgeable. We started on the west side of the park, cut... More

We had been to Central Park before, but had only walked around the Southern end. This was the best way to see a lot of the park in a short time. I would suggest doing the tour in the middle of the week. We did it on a Sunday morning while there was a major parada along 5th Ave. and... More
