5.00Darren, our guide was phenomenal. We learned a ton of history about Saint John. Beautiful views of the reversing rapids, forts and waterfront. There are quite a few hills, so your quads will get a great workout! Highly recommend this tour!
Great time, tour and company

5.00Here is the review I wrote, but it did not allow me to leave a detailed review, without logging in as you, which I can’t do. So can you copy an paste this as my feedback and review for the bike tour I took? Thanks! The bike tour I purchased in Halifax Nova Scotia via Viator turned out to be my favorite part of my 9-Day Canada cruise. The meetup location for the biking tour that I booked was a 45 min walk away from my cruise ship port. Since I miscalculated the walking distance to the meeting point, I was unable to make the tour. However, when I contacted them later that day, the folks at the touring company who went above and beyond to make sure that I had a great experience. They not only rescheduled me for the next day, but they came to the ship port to pick me up. Once I arrived at the meeting location, I met my bike tour guide (Doug), it turns out I got a 1-on-1 biking tour. As if that were not enough, Doug also became my photographer, helping me capture great pictures from throughout the tour. Doug was very knowledgeable and very professional and ended the tour by cycling back with me to the ship to make sure I made it back onboard in time before the ship departed. I had a great time and will book another tour with them via Viator gain when every I return to Canada.
Fun bike in Saint John

5.00Great tour company! Our ship was delayed due to a medical emergency but the tour company waited an hour and still took us out! Our tour guide was very friendly and informative. We biked some hilly roads with beautiful architecture and views of the port. We enjoyed a delicious beer and pleasant conversation at Moosehead brewery. My husband dropped his hat at the beginning of the tour but our guide found it later and the company delivered it to a location near us so we could retrieve it! Great customer service!
