What could be better than a Guided Bike Tour in Central Park, the first landscaped public park in the USA?

Your guide, a top-rated NYC-licensed professional, rides alongside you and shows you all that the park has to offer: Bethesda Fountain, hidden waterfalls, cast-iron bridges, movie scenes, celebrity homes, skyscrapers… all while passing beneath many of the park’s 26,000 trees. You’ll learn the history of New York City, told in terms of the development of the city and its parks. You’ll bike right up to Strawberry Fields, the memorial to the life of John Lennon, and see the famous building where he lived and view a 15 acre field that once held sheep right in Central Park!

Tour Highlights • Turn around Cherry Hill fountain as gorgeous west side buildings swallow you up. • Strawberry Fields and the Imagine Mosaic, tributes to John Lennon. • Be amazed by the skylines across the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. • See the beautiful Great Lawn's landscape from atop of Belvedere Castle. • Smell the glamorous flowers of the Shakespeare Garden. • Take a look at Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux's masterpiece Bethesda Terrace, considered by many to be the heart of Central Park. • Appreciate the Alice in Wonderland statue that overlooks the conservatory water. • Souvenirs in Tavern on the Green gift shop are always appreciated back home!

When you take this tour, we will provide all the necessary the equipment: the bike, helmet, basket and the fun! Don't forget to bring your cameras; you won't want to miss taking pictures of must-see places within this beautiful park!
