New Orleans Bike Tour

While helmets are not required in the city of New Orleans we will provide you with one and encourage you to use it.

In general, our tours are great for kids 8 years of age and older.

For children up to 12 years old or 100lbs (45kg), we have 2 wheeled tandem trailers. The passenger sits on a seat and can pedal or coast. All riders over 100lbs (45kg) must ride their own bicycle. We have various smaller sized mountain bikes for those able to ride on their own.

We do not have any adult tricycles or bikes with training wheels for adults that may be less confident in their riding ability. Please let us know if you would like one of our tandems, trailers, baby seats, or child bikes in advance that you’d like to reserve either a child seat or trailer.

Important Note: All child bikes use hand brakes, there are no pedal brakes available.

All tours begin and end at 1735 Washington Ave (the corner of Baronne and Washington Ave), which is two blocks from the Washington (Garden District) stop on the St. Charles streetcar line.  Please arrive 15min before your scheduled departure time.

Comfortable clothes are recommended, and there is no need to wear full biking gear.  Please dress for the weather and be prepared to be in the sun. Closed toed shoes are highly recommended.

It also gets very, very hot in New Orleans, so we recommend bringing an extra water bottle along.

Yes!  We will include a small water bottle for every rider, but we encourage you to bring along extra water as New Orleans gets hot!

We’re happy to offer free changes and 100% refund up to 24 hours before tour* Failure to cancel a reservation at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure may result in forfeited travel funds. Fare difference may apply.

All scheduled tours are in English, but private tours can sometimes be scheduled in other languages, given we have a tour guide who speaks the language of your choice.

Unfortunately, we won’t have enough time during this tour to allow everyone to enter the various museums. We will, however, provide you with the best information to go back and see the places that interest you most following the tour.  This tour is designed to experience the city from a broad perspective.

Our tours operate in groups of 8 guests or less.  If your party is larger than 8, the group will be split up for safety reasons, each with a guide.  For larger parties, please inquire about a private tour at privatetours@fattiretours.com.

The tour meeting time is 15 minutes prior to the start time. No refunds or re-bookings can be provided for late arrivals or no-shows after tour commencement or departure.
