★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 800 reviews · 2 hours · from $47Our pick

Ride through Central Park on a Cannondale bike or eBike with a licensed guide. You’ll stop at Shakespeare Garden, Bethesda Terrace, the Reservoir, Strawberry Fields, and other major sights. Guides such as Dan, Carla, Chuck, and John add history, humor, music, and photo help to this relaxed small-group tour.

“This was one of our favourite things we did in New York. Central Park can be daunting, but our guide made it simple, fun and engaging. Jon is a born and bred New Yorker and had so much in-depth knowledge and passion for the park - amazing! Top tip - If you are doing a lot of walking on your trip, get an e-bike. We did and it was truly the best thing we did. You can get your exercise in, but also have the comfort and assistance if you need it. Would highly recommend this experience”

“Great tour. Guide Debra was very informative & fun. She pointed out all the sites & also told funny anecdotes. The Tour went through Harlem then Riverside Park & down the Hudson walkway to the Brooklyn Bridge. We stopped along the way & walked about too-at Ground Zero. In all it lasted about 3 hours. I was really impressed by the quality of the bikes too-Cannondales which seemed new. I was particularly lucky as I was the only person on the tour but even if it had been busier Debra would have entertained everyone. I thoroughly recommend this tour.”
