“We had such a wonderful experience with James on Mike’s Bike Tour. Our group was large and mixed in both interests and cycling abilities, made trickier with Oktoberfest crowds in town, but James handled it all effortlessly. He kept the ride fun, well-paced, and inclusive while sharing engaging stories and history along the way. His organization, knowledge, and upbeat attitude made the tour a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend both James and the tour!”

“The bike tour is rain or shine, and I was pleased to see that most people arrived for the tour suitably prepared for the predicted rain. Hose who were not were able to buy rain ponchos in the shop before the tour. The bikes were very easy to ride with all-terrain tires and had good rear splash guards to keep dry. This was not a “normal” tour as our guide let us decide how many stops to make due to the rain, and we ended up cutting the tour short to get back early to dry off, warm up and go to lunch a bit early instead of biking through…”

“We were hoping for a great tour but instead received a mediocre one. The guide gave some history lessons however we were unable to hear unless you were right in the front. In a group of 20, we couldn't hear most of what was said as the guide spoke to the front 5 people only. Unfortunately what we did hear, was the guide's opinion of politics and places to get free beer and inappropriate comments. I feel I know more about the guide than the history of Munich from this bike tour.”
