Why 5 stars? Because it's hard to imagine a better way to see Vancouver. --- --- --- We were only in Vancouver for about 36 hours, so we thought a bike tour would really maximize our ability to see the city. And we're so happy we chose this bike tour because it was great, all around. Daniel was our guide and he did an amazing job. He was educational, funny and really came across as a true expert of the city. We took the 5-hour tour and paid a bit extra to get e-bikes so those uphill climbs were a little easier. Yes, I felt like I was cheating a bit, but I also didn't really feel like pushing myself while on vacation. Everyone we interacted with at the shop was great, too. We booked the trip through Fat Tire tours. So far, every Fat Tire affiliated tour we've ever done has been great, and this was no exception. I can't recommend this enough for anyone visiting Vancouver!

Glad to hear your feedback Brett. Thanks for joining us for the bike tour!

Greg is the best tour guide! Super friendly and knowledgeable about the whole city and its history.

Cheers David, thanks again for joining us!

My sister & I rented bikes from Cycle City for a half-day (5 hours) to explore Vancouver on our own. We reserved the bikes online about a week before our trip and received 10% off. The bikes were ready right at the time we had requested and helmets/baskets/bikes locks were all provided at no additional charge. I will mention, however, that the bikes we reserved online (city touring step-through bikes) were not the bikes we received when we checked-in (city touring roadster). This wasn't a big deal for us, though. All staff we interacted with were friendly and knowledgeable. City Cycle was reasonably priced (and less expensive than some of the other bike rentals in the area). It's located in the Gastown area near a lot of hotels & centrally located to many bike-able sight-seeing. Absolutely recommend!

Bikes through Stanley Park.

Biked through Stanley Park.

Second time renting from Cycle City, and we'll definitely be back again! They hooked us up for the day with a couple great e-bikes and a trailer for the kiddos. We all had a blast getting around Stanley Park, the aquarium, and downtown - highly recommend!

Glad to hear of your experience Patrick!

We scheduled an evening tour of the city a few weeks ago. As luck would have it, the 2 of us were the only folks on the tour, so we had our great tour guide, Michael, to ourselves. If you are going to want to take a tour of Vancouver, seriously consider renting bikes (we rented pedal-assist versions). We went to every neighborhood in Vancouver, including Stanley Park. The pace was perfect and never once did I feel that I needed to take a break from the ride. There are so many points of interest that you stop and look at or discuss that you don't even notice you've been riding around for 3 hours. We also felt 100% safe as the city has seemingly mastered the art of making their city bike-friendly with dedicated lanes and a populace that knows how to interact/live in a city with bicyclists. Stanley Park is amazing. You go from riding in a major city to being in a beautiful forest preserve in a heartbeat. If you're lucky, you may even see an actual, wild beaver working maintaining his dam. We were lucky, he decided to swim out just prior to our taking off again for our ride. I enjoyed the tour so much that I booked the bike again for the next morning to ride around in some of the neighborhoods I wanted to see again. Please note - I am not an athletic, fit bicyclist....You do not need to be to enjoy this tour or rent these bikes. Thanks again to everyone at Cycle City, especially Michael - he was incredibly knowledgeable and kind, to boot!

Great places to stop and take in the sights!

We were so impressed with this tour and our tour guide. Did the Grand tour and I'm not sure there is a better way to see and learn about the city. Our guide was knowledgeable but also chill and interesting. We had a great day.

We couldn't have been happier from start to finish with the service and the equipment we received from Cycle City Rentals! We rented ebikes and they were the best ride we've ever had on an electric assist bike and super easy to use! In addition, the staff was more than welcoming, helpful, and accommodating to all our needs and questions. I recommend anyone who visits Vancouver to use Cycle City for their bike rentals!

This was a fantastic leisurely ride exploring most of Vancouver for 13 miles (we did The Grand Tour-Stanley Park, Granville Island, seaboard). KIM was an amazing tour guide for our small group! She was knowledgeable, answered questions, was safe. Perfect for couples or families with older children as there are a few high traffic and small uphill areas. We highly recommend it!

Great bikes and service. We rented the bikes and did our own tour of Vancouver and it was a great experience. The city is such a bike friendly place with tons of flat and paved bike paths. We rented three bikes for 2 hours and had to upgrade because there was too much to see. The check out process was fast and easy. They showed us our bikes and how to use the locks. Then we were off to explore. If you are on the fence on renting, you should look no further and just do it. It's a great time at your own pace. The bike map tells you where it's easy and flat and ad long as you follow it, you will have a great time.

Went on the Grand Tour, 13 miles of pedaling all around Vancouver including Stanley Park - a bit challenging on a couple of quick small hills but our guide Frank was awesome, patient and encouraging as we conquered them. He gave us tons of info about the city and took us off the beaten path. I got to see parts of Vancouver I wouldn't have otherwise seen. Loved it.

Another musician you can see at Resurgam is Toby McAllister from Sparks The Rescue. McAllister unpacked his perfect Maine day for us, and it includes a hike in Grafton Notch and a stop at Puzzle Mountain Bakery in Newry for cookies.

If the weather does indeed relegate you to the indoors, curl up on the couch and fire up the new web series “Tracking the Comegato” about a beastly human-weasel hybrid that may or may not exist.

Could this human-weasel hybrid from Maine join the ranks of Bigfoot?
