Brilliant bike tour! 10/10! - The tour was amazing! Andy and Jim were absolutely brilliant. They were so knowledgeable about York’s history. Even though I’ve lived in York for years, I still learnt new facts! The tour was really fun and the guides were really genuine, funny people. I really recommend this tour if you’re looking to learn more about Yorks history and have a laugh while doing it!

A really novel way to see the sights in York! - I came through the train station in York on Monday the 12th of August and the flyer for e-bike tours immediately piqued my interest. An escorted e-bike tour around the main attractions in York! That would suit me all right! By the next day, I was cycling with equally nervous and excited tourists as Andy very carefully took the lead on our freewheeling adventure! And what a treat it was. We cycled, we stopped and chatted, we cycled some more and all the while Andy, our tour leader, regaled us with stories and facts from this most Romanesque City. There was time for questions and photographs and even a coffee break if you should so wish! Would I go on this tour again - Yes most definitely and thanks to Andy for a fantastic afternoon!

Such great fun! The best way to explore York! - I went with two friends, and we all had such a good time. Andy was so much fun, and so knowledgeable, we loved his outfit (the cape was a great addition!)
Awesome tour, would highly recommend it to anyone visiting! Really covered a lot of the history of York, we learnt so much and had such a fun time.

Exploring York and learning the history the fun way! - The perfect way to see York amongst, and beyond, the city walls. Andy, the tour guide was such a great source of information-and he was funny and charismatic with it too, so the tour was full of history AND fun! I will highly recommend this tour to everyone I know who will visit the great city of York. I learned so much and felt like I was seeing more than the other tourists wandering around by foot! Thank you, Andy the Viking!

Great tour & guides!! - Andy & Jim, Great tour guides!
They were very full of knowledge of the area& history of York.
We saw a lot of sights we probably wouldn’t have gotten to see otherwise.
The bikes were more comfortable than some other tours we’ve done, which was a plus.
Highly recommend them!

Brilliant for both tourists and locals! - Briliant tour around york, and an extremely friendly and down to
earth tour guide. I've been a york resident since I was born, and I learned so much about the city that I had never heard before.
The bikes were great, and having never used an E Bike before the guide explained everything fully, and was really helpful in assisting everyone who needed it during the tour.
Not only has the tour been fun, I also loved experiencing the city on the bikes. I would highly recommend to both locals and tourists, me and my partner will definitely be booking on again, and bringing a couple of friends.
