Fun, active way to see London landmarks
We got lucky and had a brilliant sunny day for our tour. Kim, our guide, was knowledgeable and engaging. He was prepared to answer every question, but was also relaxed and followed the interests of our little group. The bicycles were easy to ride and the route took us past many noteworthy sites and interestingly quirky places to stop. Traffic was also not too daunting, because the route was well-planned. Highly recommended as a way to visit London highlights.

One word, wonderful. Thank you George for this amazing experience.
Earlier this year, we did a bike tour in London with George from London Bike Company, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! George was incredibly enthusiastic and a wonderful storyteller. He showed us beautiful places around the city that we would never have discovered on our own, and his stories really brought London’s history to life. The tour was well organized, relaxed, and a lot of fun. We also really appreciated that electric bikes are available — this made the tour comfortable and accessible for everyone, regardless of fitness level. As Dutch visitors, we found George’s English very clear and easy to understand. We definitely did not miss having a Dutch-speaking guide! We highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore London in an active, enjoyable, and personal way.

A must-do!
We congratulate Georges on his pleasant visit to London today in French. This native of Catalonia accompanied our group of children aged 10 to 16 very well. A must-do!

The tour lasts approximately 3.0–3.5 hours and is designed to be suitable for most people, thanks to its relaxed pace and frequent stops along the way.
Sometimes children may be suitable for the group tour, but this depends on individual ability. Children must be at least 10 years old, confident cyclists, and comfortable riding alongside traffic. Children under 10 are not suitable for group tours.The management team or tour guide will always make the final decision on whether a child can safely join the group. Adults are responsible for children and their safety at all times during the tour.
For younger children or families who prefer a more flexible experience, we recommend booking a private tour, where all ages are welcome and we offer a range of bikes to suit different riders.

Which is the best bike tour for me?
If it’s your first time in London, we recommend the Classic Gold Tour or the Total E-London Tour to help you see the main highlights. If you’re looking for a mix of history and modern London vibes, the Love London Tour is a great option. For something a little less touristy but still rich in modern history, the Original Bike Tour or the Destination London Tour are both great choices. For something more unique, you can try our Sunset Tour or book a Private Tour, which is especially suitable for families with children under 10
Can I still join if I don’t ride a bike?
If you can’t ride a bike, our guided bike tours unfortunately won’t be suitable, as all guests need to be confident riding in traffic and on public roads in London. You’re still very welcome to explore London with us by joining one of our walking tours instead.

You can also choose to upgrade to an e-bike for an additional fee, for an even easier and more effortless ride around London.

Yes, helmets are required. We provide them free of charge for all guests. Wearing a helmet is a condition of our insurance when taking part in a tour in London.
