Great way to see another side of New Orleans with a local! - We had the best tour with Eric! His knowledge of the rich history of New Orleans was fascinating and his love for his hometown was clear. It was the first time weve taken a bicycle tour and we loved it. We highly recommend it. Even though it was blazing hot the tour was on flat streets. He warns you about the pot holes so dont worry. =0)

A fun & very informative tour. Highly recommend it - We really enjoyed our tour. It was so much fun biking thru beautiful streets of New Orleans. The bike ride is mostly flat, lots of pot holes but in general an easy ride. Most of the time we rode in the shade but It is warm here, so make sure you prepare for the weather.
Our tour guide was a local. Eric gave us so much information about the history & culture that we could not have picked up by ourself. He also gave us lots of great recommendations for restaurants & places to visit.
We biked thru French quarter, stopped at various significant historic sights, we walked inside cemetery no.3. We had a bathroom stop at the cafe de monde inside the park & picked up some Beignets. FYI to go Beignets are not as good, you should eat the hot :)

Our favorite experience in NOLA - The bike tour with Eric was hands down our favorite experience in NOLA. We thought Eric's bike tour was perfect--full of interesting information about the local language and geography, personal stories, and fascinating stops along the route. It was a real pleasure to spend time with someone with a rich life history in the area who has both local knowledge and researched facts. The four of us (two couples) of various fitness levels highly recommend this tour to anyone who has curiosity about places they visit.
