Fun, informative, enjoyable - Awesome bike ride with John and Sebastian. It was great to see everything that “began in Brooklyn”. 😆

Great! - Jess was a wonderful tour guide. The route was full of great sites and her knowledge of the history of the area was fabulous.

A nice way to explore Brooklyn - We had a great time with our guide Ben. He took us on a 4-hour biketour through Brooklyn. He showed us some must-see places and told us interesting facts about the different spots.
I definitely recommend this tour. If Ben is your guide, you’re good.

Best bike tour ever - Our guide was phenomenal! He knows more about Brooklyn, than the natives! He was very conscientious to keep us all safe, calm and stress free! We would not hesitate to use Frank V. again!

Great way to see it all! - If you’re tired of walking and want to see most of the Brooklyn area this is a great way to do so. Even still, the tour was 4 hours and could have been 4 more. John was a great tour guide and Brooklyn native. You do ride in the streets close to cars - but there are bike lanes on a lot of the streets. And they do offer helmets ( which I recommend!) Stopped at a cool brewery on the water that had great views of the Statue of Liberty. I definitely recommend this tour!

Personal tour with a fun guide - We had the best time with Frank, cycling through Brooklyn. He was able to answer all our questions and it was accustomed to our needs, as due to bad weather, my partner and I ended up with a "private tour". Best pizza in town, stunning anecdotes about history and architectural spots were all in for us. The hours just flew by and we had such a blast, that not even the heavy rain in the end was able to kill our good vibes that day. Thanks so much for the great tour, we will absolutely make sure to book the Manhattan tour as well next time around!

Memorable even for someone who knows New York quite well - Pluses
Frank a great guide delivering the right amount of historical perspective mixed with contemporary information and anecdotes, the best tour guide I have had ever
The tour touching covering the most relevant places in Brooklyn
The pace, leisurely without ever becoming boring
The bicycle that fitted and worked perfectly
The routes and bicycle paths chosen always very safe
Minuses
None I can think of except for the location a bit far (20 minutes) by foot from any subway station

A great way to see Brooklyn - We had an awesome day for the bike tour. Very personalized experience. Would just highly recommend upgrading the seats to a saddle.. The road bikes were nice, just the seats were a challenge.

Go Directly To Brooklyn Giro Tours (Viator is useless) - While our tour guide John was excellent and the tour itself was lots of fun, Viator was terrible! On our electronic ticket, under “Location” there was no address other than “Brooklyn NY,” and when you clicked on that, you got a GPS map that did NOT take you anywhere near the starting location for the tour. I emailed and text-messaged Viator and got no response. My recommendation is to avoid using Viator and go directly to the tour operator’s site. John at Brooklyn Giro Bike Tours was very patient. He and the rest of the group waited for us to arrive 15 minutes late because Viator had provided us with such vague and useless directions. Once I reached John on the phone, he stayed on the line with us and gave us correct navigation. I highly recommend John and his tour company, but I will not go through Viator again!
