To get to know Bukarest in a nice relaxed way - We enjoyed the 4 hour bike ride. Our guide Alex knew how to tell everything in an enthusiastic way. We learned so much and were able to ask all our questions. Nice to do this bike ride in the beginning of our trip so that we now walk through the city in a different way with all our knowledge. Dank Alex!

Fascinating and fun experience - Thank you, Lucia. This tour was a great way to get introduced to Bucharest. Perfect for getting an overall impression of the city, and the layout, especially if you are short on time. In four hours we saw a lot of the city, it’s buildings, and the story behind them . The cycling is very safe so do not worry (and not difficult physically). I learned a lot because Lucia brought to life the city and how it has changed through history with various challenges and influences. She also gave a really personal perspective on a recent transition from communism to modern Romania. I discovered places I would not have found by myself for sure. And thank you, Lucia for the many recommendations of other things to do.

Beautiful city bike tour - Thankyou to Lucia I am now returning home with an indepth history of Romania. Using the bikes allowed us to cover more ground and see alot of the city in a short space of time.
I can't thank Lucia enough for sharing her own experiences of living in the city.
Lucia wears her heart on her sleeve and is beautifully kind. Lots of tips shared on wear to eat and drink.
I highly recommend partaking in this tour at the beginning of your trip as Lucia showed me a whole side of Bucharest I hadn't seen on my own and I wanted to explore further.
Although the tour is 4hrs long the time went really quickly and Lucia cycled at a leisurely pace throughout the tour.

Fantastic tour, would recommend :) - What a fantastic way to see so much of the city. Lucia was a very knowledgeable guide, who was interested in ensuring that we had an enjoyable experience. As not an experienced cyclist I was apprehensive going into the tour but there was no need to worry, Lucia took everything at our pace and the information breaks were a perfect chance to catch our breath. Bucharest is a flat city, for which we were very grateful and we had a lovely time. Would recommend.

OK bike tour because of the guide - Guide was hard to understand with a high pitched voice. Half the group wanted to stop for toilets and coffee. She had us all vote with only made things awkward afterwards.
Overall, not bad but not great either.
