Explore Edinburgh by bike – a fun and environmentally friendly way to see parts of the city even locals may not be familiar with.
You will be looked after by knowledgeable and highly trained guides, who will share stories about Edinburgh along the route while making sure everyone is safe.
The tour, From the City to the Shore of Leith, is a 2.5 to 3 hour tour of Edinburgh, from the city centre to the sea and back in one loop, with an activity level of easy to moderate. Starting at the west end of Princes Street, you will cycle past city attractions, historical sites, breathtaking views, natural wonders and have a lot of fun along the way.
By travelling the city’s superb network of bike paths and quiet side roads you will also discover the hidden gems of the city – from the canals, volcanos, hidden tunnels, secret gardens and beautiful beaches to industrial history, old railways and all the interesting facts and tales therein.
If you have a bike of your own, you are welcome to use it, or you can book a standard or electric bike with Ricky’s Bicycle Tours. Helmets will be provided.
