The bikes were in good order and we could try them before starting the tour. We were the only two who booked the tour that they, so it became a private tour. Most of the cycling is done on pavement and in the old city, so not much in car trafic. And also not much hill up.

Enjoyed the visit. Lots to see. Very informative. Helpful staff. Some seats for elderly people would be advantageous.

Beautiful church. One of my favourites! Recommend a visit to this beautiful building

Great, informative tour! Good pace of biking to stopping and explaining the sites.

Beautiful cathedral and the stained glass was amazing
