The bicycles we use are a seven-speed "Cruiser" style that allows you to sit upright and will be very easy to peddle and ride during one of our bike tours of Kingston!
Each bike is equipped with a handlebar pouch for your cell phone, keys and wallet along with a water bottle holder to stay hydrated. Better yet, we provide the water!

I've lived in the UK for the past three decades. Whenever I visit a city there or in Europe, I try to arrange an open-top bus tour to get my bearings - including a good overview of relevant history and culture. When I saw Kingston Bike Tours, I thought that it might be equally useful and enjoyable. Henceforth, I will, in the first instance, look for a bike tour! But I'll do this with the knowledge that Kingston Bike Tours is exceptionally special. Jeff has taught and coached for most of his working life - and he has clear talents. His tour is well-conceived: from United Empire Loyalists to The Tragically Hip. Even the bikes have been well-considered. Jeff provides California Cruisers which leave you comfortably in an upright position, so that you can relax and survey the views which the city has to offer. Kingston is a gem. It's been Jeff's adopted home since the early 90s, and his passion for the place is infectious. By the time that you've completed the tour, you'll be convinced that you've been taking a gentle spin through a new, but somehow familiar, city with your best mate. Could you really ask for more?

We really enjoyed our time on the bike tour!!! What a great way to see Kingston and learn the history of such a interesting part of Canada . The weather was great and your slow easy pace was the highlight of our trip. The non rush stops to the penitentiary’s Warden‘s House and the the Cooke’s 1856 fine foods were also a highlight!!!
Thank you again we would highly recommend this trip to anyone!
Hope to see youagain soon!

THANK YOU, Jeff, for your warm hospitality and commitment to accommodating us, even on a drippy day! Your in-depth portraits painted of old, current and future Kingston were so very interesting to learn about. You have a lot of knowledge (under that bike helmet), and fit the role perfectly, making it a fascinating journey!
We were having so much fun with you, it didn't even feel like exercise.
Nice trick, Jeff!!

Our Kingston Bike Tour was the highlight of our mini holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed the super comfortable bikes and the gentle pace we kept throughout the tour. Jeff, the amazing owner and our tour guide, was very personable and super knowledgeable about Kingston's history, sharing facts and lore while he led us around many historical sites of interest, including Kingston's beautiful waterfront trail. Jeff's gentle, easy style, lively interaction, and easy banter made this event a very memorable one for us. We highly recommend this bike tour to visitors and residents alike, as all would learn much of the history of this area while at the same time, would enjoy a fun time with a great "Ambassador on Wheels" for Kingston! We hope to repeat this tour in the future just to relive this enjoyable experience

Kingston Bike Tours is a must do when visiting Kingston! Jeff is a fantastic tour guide! The cruiser bicycles were easy to ride and comfortable. The tour took us along the beautiful waterfront, through residential neighbourhoods, and downtown, learning all about Kingston’s rich and diverse history.

My husband and I booked a bike tour with Jeff at the last minute during a weekend in Kingston and it was definitely the highlight of our trip! From the very moment of meeting him, until the time we said our goodbyes, he gave us incredible insight and knowledge into Kingston's history and charm. Not only did we learn a lot about the city, but we also had some meaningful conversations with Jeff. He's incredibly kind, super friendly, and has a really great sense of humour. It was more like getting a tour of a city from a friend! He also took some lovely pictures of us! Thank you Jeff. We hope to see you again soon!

If you do one thing in Kingston I would recommend this bike tour! My husband I went on the tour and found it really fun and interesting. Jeff took us on a 2 hour tour of Kingston and told us all about Kingston, past and present. The bikes are comfortable and easy to ride and Jeff is very kind and engaging. Of all the things we did on our overnight mini vacation, this was by far our favourite part of our trip!

My girlfriend and I would highly recommend Kingston Bike Tours to anyone visiting the area who's remotely interested in history and looking for a new way to discover the city. Jeff was very knowledgeable and friendly and he shared info and facts in an interesting and enjoyable way. The cruiser bikes used were comfortable and well-adapted for the mild riding done. In addition, the duration of the tour was well worth the money. Definitely 10/10!

The three hour bike tour seems to have flown so fast as we were enjoying every stop along the way. The best part is Jeff's a really good story teller. I was hooked on all the information and stories he had to say. All in all it was beyond what I expected from the tour!! If you're looking to book a tour, book a bike tour. The sights, the information and the stories were great! Kudos to this excellent service!

Yesterday was my lucky day as I had a personal tour with Kingston Bike Tours. Jeff has a great knowledge of the local history and his enthusiasm for the subject shines through. The route is lovely with stops along the way to appreciate the buildings and scenery. My bike was comfortable and perfect for cruising along the tour. Jeff was punctual, friendly, and even did research into a few of my obscure questions after the fact. I hadn’t planned on taking the tour, but saw the sign and signed up. Very glad that I did!
