For quite a few years I have conducted informative and fun bicycle tours, taking visitors from all over the world cycling around Kingston during our tourist season. It is a real pleasure to be able to ride around the city on a beautiful summer day, explaining at intervals why Kingston is such a special place, one so full of history and beauty. My Downtown Kingston bicycle tour is 3 hours in durati
on and over the course of our ride you will see many things of natural and cultural interest, including campuses, parks and the lakeshore trail, harbours and prisons, British Empire landmarks and other buildings of architectural interest. No one has ever had a problem with the 14-kilometre distance, as the route is pretty flat and the pace is leisurely, and I can promise you an enjoyable and memorable experience. The cost for this tour is $35 Canadian per person for groups of 2-3 people, $30 Canadian per person for groups of 4-8 people. The cost is is $55 Canadian per person with rented bicycle for groups of 2-3 people, $50 per person with a rented bicycle for groups of 4-8 people. I am a nationally certified Can-Bike cycling skills instructor and have a lot of experience leading group tours. Cyclists wishing to take these tours are strongly advised to wear helmets and must be willing to obey the rules of the road.
