We took part in the bike tour on a grey day with rain showers - this made no difference to the tour. Cecil was a brilliant guide and showed us many interesting sights around the city. His stories kept us all captivated and we thoroughly enjoyed our two hours in his company. We’d definitely recommend this to anyone who would like to see and learn about this beautiful city 😊
Traveling through history on bike!

We had a great time touring and hearing the very interesting history of York. There is so much to learn about York and all who have lived here for hundreds of years! We loved being able to cover so much of the area on bike. York is truly beautiful and biking around made our experience even better! Our guide was fabulous! We would highly recommend this tour.
Thoroughly enjoyable & educational!

Myself and a friend went on the guided bike tour today. Cecil was absolutely amazing, considerate and extremely knowledgeable about the history of York. Would 10/10 recommend to others, and if I was to return to York would consider doing the tour again.

Cycling for a few hours was a great way to see areas of York we otherwise wouldn’t have seen.
Cecil is full of facts, information and stories from when the city first began to develop to how it is now. The route couldn’t avoid a small distance on the busier road but was safe, flat and followed a mixture of quiet roads, cycle routes and a lovely stretch along the riverside. We loved seeing the contrasting architecture of the buildings and the classic views of the Minster. A great way to discover York and great value for money.
Enjoyable experience

Cecil, our guide, was astonishingly good. He’s so knowledgeable about York’s history and told us many details about local landmarks.
Also he was was extremely funny! And he took great care to ensure our safety - not easy when dealing with a group of 10 cyclists.
It was a very relaxed and unique way to learn about York. Highly recommended.
Excellent fun bike tour.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
