The Bike Tour of Calgary**Please note – Previous Bike Experience is Required**
The 3-hour Bike Tour of Calgary will connect you to a large footprint through the eyes of a local guide.
Together we will ride like the locals do and discover all that Calgary has to offer. This bike tour will take you through the bike-friendly streets of Calgary, and into the amazing trails that spread throughout, most notably beside the crown jewel of city: the Bow River. With its widespread points of interest, the cycling tour is the transportation mode of choice!
Your Bike Tour of Calgary starts and ends at Joe’s Garage; the best bike shop in the city, offering the highest quality bikes at the most affordable bike rentals rates. You may ask, can’t I just rent bikes and go for a cruise on my own? Absolutely, although there is nothing like connecting with what you’re riding by with an expert local guide. We will share the stories and nuances of the city at large. Toonie Tours Calgary is excited to lead the way and connect you the past, present and future of Calgary.
Don’t Limit Calgary to the Downtown Core
There is so much more to see outside of the downtown core in Calgary. Come experience places like Fort Calgary, Inglewood, Prince’s Island Park, the Bow River, and so much more. Your local Toonie Tour guide will captivate your imagination with stories of Cowtown’s humble beginnings as a trading post, to its current status as “The Energy Capital.” While our most popular tour is the Free Walking Tour, the bike tour of Calgary is for those looking for that extra escape.
