About
New York City has over 1,000 miles of bicycle lanes and paths, reaching every corner of the five boroughs. With so much to explore, choosing the right NYC bike tour can be overwhelming. That’s why we offer customized tours that are tailored to what you are interested in seeing.
All of our NYC bike tours are guided by Lukas Herbert, the owner of Gotham Bicycle Tours. Lukas is a professional urban planner who knows a lot about the city, its infrastructure, buildings and history as well as the best routes to ride. Lukas is also licensed by the City of New York as a sightseeing guide and is credentialed by the City as a “star guide” due to his extensive knowledge. (NYC DCA License # 2062201)
Our rides are also ideal for more advanced riders who are looking to ride a longer distance (and see more) than what might be offered on a standardized tour open to riders of varying abilities.
Only a deposit is due at this time. We will contact you after booking to discuss your tour. You can also email Lukas at lukas@gothambiketours.com to get started.
Rental bikes are not included with this booking. For your tour, we can meet you at a bike shop where your group can rent bikes. Or we can deliver bikes to the tour if you book them on our bike rental page: https://gothambiketours.com/bike-rental/
