The tour itself was FABULOUS! My only issue was that Kevin the tour guide spoke more in French than English and this was a tour with an “English” speaking tour guide. Over half the group was French but they spoke English and Kevin said he wanted to practice his French but that meant I couldn’t understand him. I had to ask him more than once to repeat what he said in French in English to me. That was irritating to me!

We were alone (2) on the appointment, so we had a private guide: Eddie. To be guide is his nature. Be smart and kind a gift. He shaw us the best parts of Brooklyn and told us the unknowned details of NewYork. We appreciate his way to drive thruth the crewed places. We'll never forget this part of the city. Tks Eddie. Tks to NYC Sightseeing Bike Tour.

Ross was friendly and interesting and he led us on a trip over both bridges,. We had to use the road in several places and we could not have managed those junctions by ourselves. On the downside, we were not offered cycle helmets,. Also watch out for the additional 5 dollars per bike charge for insurance which we felt obliged to purchase.
