This tour was brilliant and the best thing we did while in NYC. Guide knew NYC like the back of his hand, was really friendly, took lots of photos of me and my friend and created a really enjoyable, interesting and memorable few hours for us. Highly recommend it to anyone who is reasonably fit you are riding for a long period - with lots of rest breaks though.

The tour was a lot of fun, and the guides were great! They knew a lot about New York and really took their time to answer my questions. I thought that the ride was slightly challenging, as Central Park is more hilly than I realized. I have visited New York many times, but I never realized how beautiful and large Central Park is. This is a great way to get to see the entire park. Also, there was plenty of time to take breaks and get some great pictures. I highly recommend it!

An excellent way to see Central Park. Our group was small, and the pace was relaxed. Our tour guides were very friendly and gave us lots of information regarding Central Park and the surrounding streets of NYC. Riding through the Upper West & East Sides was great too. Lots of time to take photos as well, we had a 15-25 min break in the park to relax, have lunch and walk around.

It was very nice to go by bike in New York. Completely different than biking in Holland. I liked it very much.

This was the highlight of my trip. Our guide, who grew up in New York, was a delight. He was friendly and had so much information to share. The weather was perfect for being on a bike. I did not know how big Central Park really was, but now I know. If you love the outdoors, this is the tour for you! You get to be part of New York and Central Park.

It was awesome. The stops were frequent enough and very informative. The pace was a bit fast though. I did fall behind but that could be my own fitness challenged.

Our guide was knowledgeable, safety conscious and laid back. Our bikes were comfortable and we learned a lot about Central Park, Hudson River Park and the Greenway. I hope they keep adding tours for future visits!

This tour was brilliant. I was very lucky in the fact that there were only two other people and myself, and the tour guide was excellent, making it a really enjoyable 2 hours. The bikes were good and had a small carrier in front to hold camera, etc.

It was a wonderful way to enjoy an immense area. Central Park is full of great history and beautiful vistas. We saw it all and had great fun with our guide who gave us valuable information and made it a fun day!

The tour itself was fantastic, with a friendly guide and good bikes available, but their organization sucks. The e-ticket states you must phone forty eight hours before booking to confirm it, or you will lose the booking. I had to call four times before I actually got through to someone who knew what I was talking about. The first person I got through to actually dumped my call almost immediately because she was "too busy" asked if I could call back another day! Then when we got there, they tried charging my credit card again, even though I had shown them the paid invoice, so they had to process a refund. Needless to say, this was not the best start. The ride was fantastic with some great sights, but the guide showed little regard for lanes or other cyclists, and there were several near-misses with other road users due to his sudden un-signaled turns, cutting across joggers and other bikers.
