We have already taken part in many city tours, but this one with Marius was simply awesome. Lots of knowledge, lots of good stories and a great bike tour through the green city of Leipzig. Highly Recommended. Esther & Harry from DO

Great tour with a mega guide, with lots of fun and a lot of interesting input. In addition to the main sights, great insider corners are also shown. A very, very big compliment to Silvio from the Hamburg girls and the Bremen girl :-)

It was a great bike ride through Leipzig. Lots of nice impressions. Very good and precise explanations. Stopped often. Approx. 16 km easy to do in 3 hours...... We will now use a bicycle service more often on our city tours!

Ihr kann diese Radtour nur sehr empfehlen. Der Guide hat alles sehr gut und lustig erklärt. Am Treffpunkt könnt ihr euch ein Nextbike holen, also ladet vorher die App runter und registriert euch.

Getting to know Leipzig in such a short time and so much, quickly and entertainingly, just great.
