“We were looking for a different type of tour to engage our two teens while in Cologne. The bike tour was perfect! We were able to see a lot more of the city than a walking tour. Our guide (former police officer) was engaging and knowledgeable. The best part was that our daughter was able to find a keychain that was placed there by one of the street artists. It made her day!”
