Great views of Vancouver - Erica was our tour guide and she did an excellent job showing us the sites of Vancouver. She led the tour at a comfortable pace and she took plenty of stops to give us picture taking opportunities. She shared interesting stories about the history of Vancouver . I would recommend this tour to any first time visitor.

Great way to see Vancouver! - What a great way to see Vancouver in a few hours. Cameron our guide was very informative and cycled at our pace. We didn’t hire the e bikes as the terrain was mostly flat, there was one steep section where I got out and pushed the bike but that was ok too! Great tour, would highly recommend.

Highly recommended - 10 out of 10. Daniel was a great guide. I loved it. Pro tip: Go for the e-bikes if you're at the end of your visit here or don't want to get too tired.

Brilliant way to get to see Vancouver - The bike tour was a fantastic way to see a lot of Vancouver that you couldn’t get to see on foot. Our guide was Ondrej who knew all the landmarks and was able to bring the history of the city to life and took us to places we wouldn’t otherwise have known about. The cycling was easy and level so you don’t need an electric bike.

Take Toonie tours you won’t regret it. Ask for Ondrej. - We have only 2 days in Vancouver and decided that the best way to see the highlights was a bike tour. Our guide Ondrej went above and beyond and gave interesting insights into the history of Vancouver and took us to places we would never have found ourselves. The cycle paths are easy to negotiate and no need for an electric bike.

The best 4-Hour tour covering all the spots you want to see - If you're looking for a 4 Hour bike tour, this is the one you want. The other option I saw stopped at half as many places and had long breaks at the stops. This tour covered all the areas I wanted to see and then some, and the pace was relaxed and easy. The only hills are overpasses over other roads as almost the whole route follows the waterfront.
Our guide was good.
This is not the tour for you if you want an e-bike, the e-bike up charge is $84 which is crazy considering the other company's 4 hour ebike tour is only $30 more than this one. But you really don't need an Ebike , my wife was nervous but had no problem at all.

A little too much Stanley Park - A nice comprehensive tour showing all the highlights of Vancouver. Cameron has a lot of knowledge and can bring his stories to life.
Unfortunately, the rest of the group was so slow that we were waiting a lot and the first half of the tour in Stanley Park ran long. This meant we had to cut the second half of the tour around Granville Island and Downtown short, which was a shame since now most of the tour was just riding around Stanley Park and the Seawall instead of learning about the history and culture of the city.
It felt like you wouldn't need a guide per sé to ride along the seawall and Stanley Park, so it would've been nicer if there was more time spent on the other parts of the city and the culture and history.
Overall fine experience but not extraordinary.
