We did the lake tour with Kelly. She was awesome, the bikes were comfortable, the riding was easy and safe for all ages, and it is well worth the price (helmet included). You'll start with some basic hand signals and a safety talk, which gets everyone on the same page. Then you're off and riding! At every stop, you'll learn about what you are seeing and you'll have the opportunity to ask questions or get group photos. The other two routes look pretty cool as well. Might not be as fun in nasty weather, but plan ahead, make sure to make your reservation, and you'll have a blast. Plus you'll get a little exercise and biking is friendly to the environment!
Pros: Fun guides, Doesn't hurt environment, Easy to find with signs
Cons: Can't predict weather all of the time, huge groups might hinder experience

The Absolute best way to see the city. I visited for the weekend and felt like I left knowing the Chicago. Bobby's tour guides are fun, friendly and very informative. The experience was so great I am writing my first review to let everyone know. The bikes are fun to ride and easy enough for just about any one. We took the 10AM tour in the morning of the parks and it was so fantastic that we came back for the 1:30 afternoon tour of the Gold Coast and the neighborhoods. ~18 miles in one day! It was so good we even thought about doing the evening tour. Far and away the best tour in the city for those able to pedal a bicycle. Thanks to everyone at Bobbies for making my visit to chicago an amazing one. -Brendan from CT
