Don’t miss this ride!!!
Aug 2019 • Family
Me and my daughter (10year old) managed to complete this amazing tour only because of our expert tour guide Mr. Umesh! Everything was perfectly organized right from the start. The bicycles were in great condition and they even had an appropriate bicycle for my daughter. The ride is full of upslopes while going up nahargarh fort so make sure u r in good physical condition. They do have a vehicle which follows us all the time just in case anybodys not able to complete the ride with bicycles. The views u will get to see while riding are just breath taking. Umesh was kind enough to take our pics at all the pretty locations.More

Umesh is an experienced cyclist and extremely knowledgeable making the trip fun and informative – seeing the sunrise over Jaipur from the top of a mountain was absolutely amazing – thank you Umesh and khushal for a truly memorable morning!!

Thoroughly enjoyable tour
Exploring the city of Jaipur in the quiet hours of dawn on a bicycle is hands down one of the most relaxing ways to experience this otherwise bustling city. Our guides Umesh and Kushal were excellent. Being novice riders, we initially had reservations about the tour, but those were to put to bed by our guides who made the entire experience very comfortable right from the offset. More
Definitely Recommend
I had a great morning it was early so the traffic was manageable I felt completely safe on my bike with the team. They are really running a professional service by International standards. My guide was also a local though a traveler very open minded in his attitude to life and I found him inspiring. Nothing was any trouble and it was a relaxed pace to enjoy the moment. Source
Incredible way to experience the real Jaipur
Just got round to writing this review of a bike tour we took in November with Le Tour De India. What an incredible experience we had, can’t thank Khush and his team enough for such a wonderful morning. We wanted to combine two bikes tours in one taking in the village bike tour as well as including some uphill riding to give us a work out. Khush made the whole experience a pleasure. More
