Bikes for a Great Ride - We rented bikes to ride the GAP and C&O towpath. The team here was very helpful, fitting our bikes and giving us pointers for a warm up ride around town before the trail. We recommend Bike the Burgh for your rental bikes in Pittsburgh!

Wonderful bike tour and terrific tour guide! - Great way to see the city! Our tour guide, Daniel, was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and extremely friendly. He shared his insights about the history of the city and various landmarks. He showed great interest in our own stories of Pittsburgh from our youth!

Highly recommended! - Doug was our tour guide! A group of us were here for the NACADA 2024 conference. One of our teammates suggested the tour! It was so much fun. I highly recommend it as we learned a lot about the city and landmarks in an interesting way.

Funtastic - It was my first trip to Pittsburgh and was looking for something fun to do and this tour hit the mark. Harry was our tour guide and he was fantastic and so knowledgeable. We learned so much about Pittsburgh and its eclectic architecture, history, green spaces, sports arenas and so much more. I had too many favorite stops including market square, Strip district, First Presbyterian Church, Point of Confluence and the bridges. We had brought our own helmets but they were well prepared if we hadn’t. The bikes were good and they prioritized safety before and during the ride. The tour was 3 hours and had a great mix of long and short ride stretches. Honestly, we had such a lovely time and the 3 hours seemed to fly by. Highly recommend.
