    Great way to see London

    We had a great tour with James. He took us around the city to see many places we wouldn’t have seen on our own and his stories and knowledge of London was amazing. We stopped at a pub for a pint and then continued our journey. Very leisurely ride and we felt safe riding the streets following his lead. Highly recommend as a family activity.

    Loved it!

    We just LOVED the bike Tour! Our guide, James, never Jamie, was a wonderful. The bikes were comfortable with an easy flat ride. I chose this tour over others because it stopped at a pub. As an added bonus, I got to wear a cute english hat. It was a highlight to our trip.

    Biking tour - excellent

    Excellent experience! Wonderful tour and overall time for our family of 4 with James. The bikes were easy to ride, even for this older woman with arthritis. I highly recommend everyone book this!

    Response from the operator: Thanks for bringing the family along, Anna! We’re especially pleased to hear how comfortable and easy you found the bikes. We’ll make sure James hears your lovely words, and hopefully there’s another family ride in your future 😊🇬🇧

    London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.

    How much does London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art cost?

    +

    Prices start at $88 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.

    Is London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 95 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 983 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.

    Can I cancel or reschedule London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art?

    +

    Around 344 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in London?

    +

    London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit London?

    +

    May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in London?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art?

    +

    Included: Helmet or tweed cap (optional); Spray paint at the graffiti zone; Comfy, classic British bicycle with optional basket; Luggage storage; and Local English speaking guide. Not included: Food and drinks; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art?

    +

    • Bike tours meet at Tally Ho @ 189 Hercules Road, London, SE17LD. • The tour ends back at the same location. • The closest underground station is Lambeth North (on the Bakerloo Line). Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to London Bike Tour: Landmarks, Secret Gems, Pub Stop & Street Art if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
