Seattle's Excellent ride and guide - This was an excellent way to learn about the different parts of the city and see the sights. Our tour guide, Ike, was very knowledgeable and was able to adjust the needs of the tour to the group. She maintained an adequate pace while ensuring you had enough time at each stio in the tour and maintaining route safety. We look for to future trips to Seattle to explore the neighborhoods and events we learned about during our bike tour with Emerald City Bike Tours. Thank you for an amazing day!

Fantastic city exploration by bike - Had an awesome experience with Ike as our tour guide exploring the city. She was aware of our safety at all times.,her enthusiasm and informations made the time fly.The city has wonderful bike lanes, which made the ride very comfortable. Good bikes, non electric, a few hills that the gears worked well to climb. Saw many of the highlights and out of way places. So glad we took this tour, was the highlight of our time here. Thank you Ike, would take it again!!

Fun, Fun ride - Really enjoyed it all, well maybe not that one hill so much, but made it without getting off and walking.
Started out very cloudy and ended up with sunshine to finish the ride. The last part along the Sound was so pretty.
Great biking city. Enjoyed having Terea? as our guide.

We’d recommend! - Our guide - a (retired?) middle school teacher was knowledgeable, warm and fun. We got great exercise and learns lots. We enjoyed the tour so much more than riding around by ourselves. Salmon spanning time was a great time for this tour.

Great intro to Seattle - Such a fun, informative tour and a great introduction to Seattle. This was my first activity I did on my trip and I had a fantastic time. The tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and kept us moving along and we got to see so much of Seattle and neighborhoods I ended up checking out later. Highly recommend!

Guided Tour of Seattle - Cycling tour of a large part of Seattle, taking you from the Olympic Sculptures to the Space Needle, through South Lake Union, to Queen Anne, Fremont and Ballard. The return trip takes you through Magnolia and along Elliots Bay. Guide Darrell was knowledgeable and informative, the cycling was reasonable for me but may be a stretch for some. There are a few hills and the bikes are not power assisted. I enjoyed the trip and it was a great way to see a lot of Seattle, although it would have been nice to allow a little more time to take pictures
