About this tour

See New Orleans from the seat of a bicycle, where historic streets, leafy avenues, and local stories unfold along the way. This New Orleans City Bike Tour covers approximately 9 miles over about 210 minutes, with a fully licensed local guide leading the ride.

Head first to the French Quarter and Treme, passing landmarks such as Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, and Congo Square while hearing about the neighborhoods’ history and lesser-known corners. Then pedal to the Garden District, where oak-lined streets frame grand historic homes and stories of their notable residents. The itinerary is a broad overview, so not every tour can make every stop.

Your bike, helmet, bottled water, and a rain poncho are provided. Tours begin and end at 1735 Washington Ave, and the operator asks guests to arrive 15 minutes early. A moderate level of fitness is recommended, and the ride is not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health. Choose this New Orleans City Bike Tour for an active, locally guided look at three distinctive neighborhoods and book your ride to explore the city at street level.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.89 from 166 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in New Orleans
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.0. Top 21% in New Orleans means it ranks in the top 21% of tours in New Orleans by this score.
