Pedal Wagon - Cincinnati
Join a 2-hour guided Pedal Wagon ride through Cincinnati’s scenic Ohio River and lively Central Parkway. Customize your stops and enjoy vibrant city views led by an expert captain!
Pedal Wagon - Cincinnati operates guided, pedal-powered wagon experiences across Cincinnati neighborhoods, offering group-focused tours and private rides. The business runs captain-led outings that combine locally partnered stops, music, and opportunities to bring personal beverages and snacks. Many public experiences last two hours, while select culinary and private options run up to three hours. Routes include central city destinations such as Over-the-Rhine, Central Business District, Washington Park, Findlay Market, Vine Street, and areas near Great American Ball Park. The Redlegs Rally uses an electrically-assisted wagon for easier pedaling on game-day cruises.
Tours and private rides are led by a trained Captain who navigates routes, coordinates stops with partner establishments, and sets the pace for the group. Options accommodate small groups on six-seat wagons and larger gatherings via multi-wagon private rides, with customizable stop sequences and curated partner venues. Popular experiences include brewery-focused cruises, mural tours that support local arts organizations, progressive dinner routes that stop at multiple restaurants, and themed game-day pedals for Bengals and Reds fans. Pedal Wagon - Cincinnati is featured on The Adventure Collective and works with local businesses and community landmarks to create reliable, repeatable group outings. Safety measures include captain supervision and route planning; accessibility and specific accommodations vary by tour type and should be confirmed when booking.
