Tour overview

Come and join our award winning company on a fabulous, fun, vibrant and wonderfully engaging guided bike tour. Our tour utilises Perth’s comprehensive network of modern cycle paths leaving you the opportunity to explore and absorb the scenic and very photogenic locations, including the internationally famous Blue Boat House. 

The tour starts under the watchful eyes of the giant frill neck lizard and numbat public artworks at the Mindeerup piazza, South Perth’s foreshore gateway. From here we cycle over the Narrows Bridge and around the river towards the Matilda Bay parkland next to the University of WA. Along the way our passionate and experienced guides share the areas’ historical, cultural, geographical and horticultural secrets with you.

We continue our adventure and take you into the beating heart of iconic Kings Park's bushland and botanical garden areas.  Stopping for a well earned cafe break, we explore this unique bio-diversity hotspot on foot allowing plenty of time to take some incredible photos of the scenery, wildflowers and flowering plants.

Jumping back on our comfortable and easy to ride touring bikes we make our way via a network of scenic paths through the beautiful John Oldham Park to finish our day at the South Perth foreshore.

Our small group guided tours and energetic narrative are all about actively connecting you with nature rather than strenuous exercise and so cater for a wide range of ages and skill levels. We aim to leave you energised and with a strong sense of accomplishment. 


Ride Rating – MEDIUM

Whilst this tour has been carefully curated to minimise hills, there are a number of 'hilly' sections. We do stop regularly for breaks, discussions and photo opportunities. You should be prepared to exercise with some periods of increased heart rate. Feel free to dismount and walk your bike up a hill if you need to or want to.

As a reference this tour would be suitable for those who are active or ride a couple of times a month.
