Shoutout to our bud Fergus Carey. If you're still getting a paycheck, please support your community financially in whatever way suits you. If you like to go out, order some beer for (responsible) pickup or delivery from a local brewery (may we suggest Love City Brewing Company?), and contribute some of your savings to a virtual tip jar like the one Fergie's Pub has set up to help out-of-work staff. Whatever you like to do for fun, remember that the people who provide that fun are hurting now and try to send some money their direction. Also, check out Fergie’s Pub Quarantined Mic for your Monday night entertainment! In the small victories/interstate love department: it's nice to see the Washington Post referring to Philly as a "great American city." We're sending love to our buds in DC as well (notably Bike and Roll DC). We'll be back!

Best cafe in the city according to several of our tour guides. Their freshness, cleanliness, and hygiene are beyond reproach! Order some delivery!

Hi all. This may seem a somewhat frivolous announcement but we are suspending scheduled bike tours effective immediately. We believe (for now) that being outside on a bike is a low risk activity, but of course we discourage anyone from making any travel plans at this time and we want to encourage people to stay home as much as possible and not engage in any non-essential social contact. We will leave tours open beginning April 11 for anyone who wants to sign up, with the assu...rance that you can cancel with full refund if necessary, and the understanding that we may cancel any future tours in accordance with our social responsibility. We encourage people to plan for the future with optimism, but that does not extend to any long-distance travel plans, which should be postponed indefinitely. We are grateful for and supportive of all businesses that have closed voluntarily out of social responsibility, and recognize that that decision was much harder for many of them than it is for us. We are also proud of our parent shop Fairmount Bicycles for remaining open (with advanced social-distancing protocol) during this time, as we feel that bicycling as a means of essential transportation is more important now than ever. Finally, we'd like to note that our views on the responsible course of action are constantly evolving. We welcome your feedback on any of this and promise we will take it to heart. Please folks, stay safe, stay calm, and stay home as much as possible. We are confident that we will see you on the streets sooner than later.

Our friends in Istanbul may have the best tagline in the business. On this tour you can ride your bike on two different continents! If that grabs you but doesn't convince you, check out their page for some great pictures of this very special bike tour.

We've begun scheduling our Fairmount Park Historical Tour for Spring/Summer 2020. Check our website for all dates currently scheduled. If you are interested in the tour but don't see a date you like please send us a message and let us know! Amateur Fairmount Park Historian Jonas Oesterle is also on hand to answer any Fairmount Park questions in the comments below! Join us on a journey through Fairmount Park's past, present, and future. After starting with the Philadelphia Art... Museum, and the park's prehistory and origin, we will cross the Schuylkill River to explore West Fairmount Park and the Centennial District. We'll see the Philadelphia Zoo, Memorial Hall and the Centennial Exposition Buildings, Belmont Plateau, the Horticulture Center and Japanese House, and much more. The riding is scenic and largely on paths through the park. The history revealed will be of often-overlooked chapters of Philadelphia's history that will augment the understanding of a novice enthusiast or a Philadelphia history buff. See more

Don't get us started on cycling in Germany (it's great, and it goes on from there...). Rather, visit Germany yourself and DO NOT MISS THIS TOUR in Munich!

Cycle the French Riviera with our pals from Nice! The pictures say all you need to know for this one...

We're not going to lie and say that we knew about this amazing place before, but we're very happy to have learned of it, and to share it with you! See a different side of Croatia in the town of Split, and definitely do so with a bike tours from our new compatriots at Split Cycling! #cyclecities #bookdirect #cycleeurope #biketours

We don't mind biking in the cold! To prove it we've scheduled our Classic City Tour this Saturday, February 15, for the hardy souls with warm and open hearts. If you know someone who could use a crash course in Philadelphia past & present, please encourage them to e-mail us directly: fun@phillybiketours. We're happy to answer any questions about what to expect and offer special cold weather discounts for those who inquire within!

It gives us great pleasure to be partnered with great tour operators in the greatest cities in the world. So happy to add Bilbao to that list! Seasoned travelers of Spain will tell you that this city is not to be overlooked. Explore it by bike!

We probably don't need to say a whole lot to get you interested in this activity... if you're anywhere near this part of the world, definitely get yourself to Athens and experience this bike tour!
