Great guide, great ride -- would recommend to my family and friends - We did this on our last day in Paris. It worked so well to do it at the end because it allowed us to cover ground on the less obvious places we hadn't visited. We had already hit the main spots ourselves, but this gave us a more complete perspective of the city.
The bike ride itself was extremely pleasant. Easy riding the whole time, never in busy areas with lots of cars, most of the time on quiet streets or in dedicated bike lanes, and regular stops so it's not taxing at all.
The information and stories and history we got were really great too. Our guide did a great job. It's definitely so much better to have someone (who's local and knows the city so well) explain the context behind what you're seeing rather than self-guiding yourself around the city.

Great urban bike tour! - Paul was a great guide- he shared a lot of interesting historical and contemporary information about Paris without being overly didactic. He was a a fun and friendly guide. The bike tour, which was easy biking, covered a lot of ground though the city, was a definite highlight of the trip!

Charming, intimate ride with excellent guide - We took the “Paris Nooks & Crannies Bike Tour” — and it was one of the best bike tours we’ve taken. Very comfortable ride route with frequent stops to hear some history and background on each spot. Our guide was very good, great English skills and very friendly. The best thing about this tour was that we traveled on small backstreets and alleys, giving us a chance to enjoy the city and the ride. And discover the little details of its history that you can only get off the beaten path. Amazing.

Perfectly paced - Nooks and crannies bike tour was our favorite part our Paris trip, to get away from the hustle and bustle of the more popular tourist attractions. Paul was our guide and he was great navigating us through the traffic, also knowledgeable of the area.

Nooks and Crannies bike tour of Paris - ABSOLUTELY delightful tour, just loved it! Our guide Igor was brilliant and provided us with a really informative tour; he was a lot fun engaging & patient. We saw parts of Paris we certainly hadn’t seen before. This was a small group tour with just 2 couples. Highly recommend, a must do. Thank you Igor

Hot day but very enjoyable - We had a very hot day (99F) but our guide made sure to find shady spots to discuss the points of interest and water refill and misting stations to keep us comfortable.

Awesome bike / history tour - Igor was such a wonderful and engaging bike tour guide for our voyage through lesser traveled streets of Paris that are more easily navigated on two wheels than four. He brought to life the lore and history of so many buildings, parks, and bridges. Riding along the Seine was a highlight for all of us, as was the stop for macarons in the Latin Quarter. The bikes were high quality and a great way to explore the city up close.

Best day biking - One of the best experiences we had in Paris. Christian was filled with information and good humor. Truly brought us to the most beautiful places and many of those promised true nooks and crannies we would never have seen otherwise.
