Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for the bike tour? I want to gift this to my kids.

A: There isn't a strict age limit, but the tour is generally best for kids 10 and up. They should be able to handle a 9-mile ride and follow instructions. Just double-check with the tour provider beforehand if you’re thinking of bringing younger kids!

Q: What if it rains on the day of the tour? Can we reschedule?

A: If it rains, they provide ponchos, so you can still go if you’re up for it! If it’s a heavy downpour, you can reschedule without any hassles. Just reach out to them directly; they’re really accommodating.

Q: What should I wear for the bike tour? Is it really casual?

A: Casual is definitely the way to go! Just wear comfortable clothes and good shoes for biking. I wore a t-shirt and shorts, and it worked perfectly. Don’t forget sunscreen, though! Those New Orleans rays can be intense.

Just did the New Orleans City Bike Tour, here's my take!

I recently took the New Orleans City Bike Tour and wow, it was amazing! Our guide took us through the French Quarter and the Garden District, and I learned so much about the history and architecture. The 9-mile ride was totally doable, and the pace was just right. Plus, they provided water and helmets, which was super nice. I gifted this to my partner for her birthday, and she loved it too! Highly recommend if you're looking for a unique experience.

Considering gifting the bike tour to my friend, need some advice!
