North Brooklyn Bike Tour of Williamsburg and Greenpoint

Do i have to be an avid cyclist to book a tour?

No, we ride at a pace of 6 to 8 miles per hour and make stops to take pictures. Our tours average 10-15 miles and we bike mostly on Bike Paths with very few hills. Biking laws and Bike Routes in NYC have changed dramatically in the past couple of years and cycling is now safer than ever.

What are the age requirements?

13 and up on our Public Tours. 

What is your rainy day and bad weather policy?

If the weather is extremely poor and we decide to cancel, you will be able to reschedule. 

What should i bring and wear?

Pay attention to the weather! We strongly recommend that you NOT wear lose clothing while riding a bike. We have bike racks, but bulky purses or those expensive cameras are not the best things to bring. We can store items for you in our secured storage facility if you decide not to bring them on the ride, but please arrive 30 minutes ahead of time so that our tour guide can accommodate you. We do not have water for sale or snacks. We do have a bathroom at the storage facility, but please make this a last resort when arriving.

What if i cannot finish the tour, can i leave?

Perhaps! If you do decide that you cannot finish, you must be able to return the bike before the end of the tour at the storage facility and leave the bike locked. The bike we provide to you is your responsibility during the tour. You will be charged $350 or more if the bike is lost or stolen.

Should i tip the guides?

That’s a strong YES! Some companies will "tip-toe" around this topic, but we're here to give you a straight answer! Tipping is customary! Much of our guide’s income depends on the tips you provide.

Do you have ebikes?

NO! E-Bikes are currently banned in NYC.

Do i have to wear a helmet and do you provide?

No. NYC Law does not require a helmet but we strongly encourage you to wear one. Yes. We have helmets. We even offer gloves, hats, and toe warmers for colder days!
