What you'll do

Informative, fun, and a great day out, this is a great way to catch all of London's highlights from a whole new perspective!

Cycling casually alongside riverside pathways, cycle lanes and park routes, ensuring your complete safety at all times, this tour includes stops at highlights such as the London Eye, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, and Buckingham Palace. You’ll go in search of Spies at MI5 and the Horse Guards at Whitehall, along with visits to other iconic locations such as Trafalgar Square and St Paul’s Cathedral – this tour is not to be missed.

You’ll also have the chance to stop for some refreshment while on the tour at a classic East End pub.

Find yourself peddling through crooked cobbled streets, secretive courtyards and hidden alleyways in search of London’s oldest wig store, the world’s smallest police station and the city’s most expensive private school. Your entertaining local guide will share the history, stories and legends about the places and people of the areas you visit. This tour covers all of the best and much more!

Chris and Team

I have a real passion for London and anything on two wheels. I have spent countless hours cycling the streets of London to create and perfect small group bike tours that follow the road less travelled and maintain your safety at all times. Our routes are designed to show off London in all its glory – hidden nooks & crannies, iconic monuments, secret alleyways, street art locations, local food markets and quaint old pubs with character and warm English beer (like all good things in life, an acquired taste!).

London, the city that has it all!
