We went with Birgit and it was all great. We had so much fun exploring London with the magnificent decorations and hearing from Birgit a few stories about the individual stops. Thank you Birgit.

Saw a whole lot of central London. Great to see sites I normally wouldn't go to such as the different neighborhoods and squares. Learned about the history of the city with humorous anecdotes from our guide Dom. Stopped for pics here and there, wish we had more time for more of those. Enjoyed seeing the city decorated for the holidays with millions of lights strung through the streets. Fun to be biking with other people from around the world. Not sure this tour would be recommended for someone under 18 since you're biking through a crowded metropolis for three hours. Enjoyed the city at night with street lights and music. We rode at a good pace aware of the drizzle and wet pavement. London is mostly a bike city with those designated lanes which kept us mostly away from the traffic and pedestrians. Fun to be out at London during the night.
It's CHRISmas Lights!

Chris did a fantastic tour! What a charming young man. His British humor really hit the mark. His knowledge of Saville Row was perfectly tailored to the tour.

Despite the rain we enjoyed the bike ride. We saw a lot and learned some nice interesting facts from our guide Ola Wallin. Ola has a fantastic sense of humor and thanks to him our girls (i.e. teenagers) also kept up their courage!!! Marjolein m

Ollie our Vibeing Santa guide was so awesome and funny, leading us deftly thru 13km of crazy busy streets to multitude of wonderous Christmas lights, shopping strip's and the odd iconic building. I must say, I'm a regular bike rider and it was tricky weaving thru all the traffic and pedestrians at night, but it's all moving so slowly that even if an accident happened, the worse injury would be a scratched limosine. Relaxed, kind , helpful staff at the grassroots company office We will never forget this tour. Wishing Ollie all the best, this man is going far.
Wonderful London Christmas tour!

A Challenging Experience due to Holiday Congestion

Having been on bike tours in London previously, we were very excited for this special Christmas edition. Our tour was scheduled for December 23, which proved to be a very challenging day. Crowds of shoppers on the route were so thick that passing through them was nearly impossible and quite unnerving. The Christmas decorations were, indeed, lovely but much of the enjoyment of the tour was compromised by the severe congestion of the route and the dangerous street crossings involved. As I said at the beginning, all previous bike tours have been super fun and informative—this experience was exceptional and based on the very specific holiday timing.

Great experience riding a bike through central London at twilight seeing the Christmas illuminations. Always felt safe, bikes well maintained, high-vis and quality helmets provided. Our tour was led by Conner a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. Viewed many sights which very likely would be missed without a guide. Very enjoyable and good fun.
