Our Day Bike Tour is the perfect tour for both those new to the city and Parisian veterans. For the beginners, this tour will offer you a fantastic orientation and give you an opportunity to see virtually all of the sites you've heard about. For the veterans, we're positive you'll learn new facts and stories about Paris that you've never heard. And we're sure you'll both agree that biking is the best way to see the "City of Light". We also stop for lunch during this tour (price not included).

Comparison of Day Tour vs. Night Tour

Many customers want to know the difference between our Day and Night Tours.

First, the routes and information provided are completely different.

The Day Tour is where you'll get the most information about Paris. We hear one of two comments most often after the Day Tour. Either, "Wow, I'm so glad I took this because now I know what I'm going to do the next few days while I'm in the city" or we hear, "I can't believe I'm leaving tonight because there's so much more here that I didn't know about and I've missed it all."

The Night Tour is simply beautiful. There is more riding involved and slightly less information than the Day tour, but the city at night is fantastic! It is a more relaxed atmosphere than our Day Tour as the wine tends to loosen everyone up a bit.

Most of our customers take both of our tours. However, if you're not sure you want to take both, we suggest you take whichever one sounds most interesting to you, and then you can decide at that point if you enjoyed it enough to ride with us a second time. We think we know what your answer will be...

D-Day Beaches were phenomenal

To Everyone at Fat Tire Bike Tours in Paris - Je vous remercie tellement beaucoup (I hope that made sense!)


Four of us went on the D-Day Beaches Tour on Tuesday, March 6th and it was phenomenal. We were lucky in that we had a small group and even though the weather didn't exactly cooperate we had a fantastic day. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and made the tour exceptionally enjoyable. For anyone who is interested in WWII history this tour is an absolute must. In fact, my husband and I enjoyed this tour so much we would like to return to the town of Bayeux some day in the near future and visit all these places again but make it last a few days rather than just one. However, with that being said, we certainly saw a lot in that one day and certainly received more than our money's worth from the tour. It was a great day - just awesome. The directions to your office were great and you are easy to locate. Please keep up the good work and if anyone I know is going to Paris on vacation I will recommend that they contact you guys.

Thanks again for everything and sorry it's taken me a while to e-mail you what a great time we had.

Warmest Regards,

- Anna More Testimonials
