“Antoine was a very informative guide and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a rainy day, but it was still a really fun day. Our guide had to be flexible because when we arrived at the train station, it turned out it wasn’t running that day- but we pivoted and he got us there! It was fun to shop for our lunch before getting on our bikes to head out. It was a long day, so we were all tired by the time we got to the last gardens- so I recommend not making any plans for after the tour. I had to cut my time in…”

The next day, we returned to tour the inside of the mosque we hadn't known was there and also revisited the garden. Our guide recommended several great spots for lunch, and our crepe was delicious.

The route was quiet compared to the much busier traffic we’d seen elsewhere. Aaron is so knowledgeable about the city, he answered hubby’s (many) questions with ease and was so so friendly. We found some beautiful places we’d never have come across without his guidance. Don’t be put off thinking it’s 4 hours of constant cycling, there are plenty of stops and the bikes are really comfortably.”
