Guided Tours in and around New Orleans
At RideTHISbike, we do far more than just guided bike tours. Our goal is to help guests experience New Orleans and the Gulf Coast in ways that are fun, authentic, and memorable—whether by bike, on foot, or by boat.
Our pedal bike tours showcase the city’s rich history, architecture, and character. Depending on the tour you select, ride through the French Quarter, Tremé, Marigny, Faubourg St. John, and the Garden District each with its own distinct story. Popular routes include scenic rides along Esplanade Avenue to City Park and the Bayou St. John, or relaxed cruises through the Lower Garden District with photo stops at classic landmarks.
For those who want to cover more ground, our electric bike tours offer a faster pace and effortless pedaling. E-bikes let us reach multiple neighborhoods and attractions that would take hours on foot, making them ideal for travelers with limited time who still want to see it all.
Beyond cycling, we also organize and book a range of other guided tours through trusted local partners. Guests can glide through Louisiana’s wetlands on thrilling airboat swamp tours or relax aboard covered pontoon swamp boats for a quieter, shaded experience. We also arrange plantation tours that bring the region’s history to life through expert narration and scenic drives along the Mississippi River and elsewhere.
If you prefer to stay close to the city, our walking tours highlight the vibrant stories of the French Quarter—ranging from architecture and music history to ghost tours that explore New Orleans’ spooky legends. And for those seeking something truly unique, we occasionally host special events and out-of-town excursions such as the Mardi Gras Squared multi-city tour connecting New Orleans and Mobile, Alabama during Carnival season.
Whether you want a leisurely neighborhood ride, an adrenaline-filled swamp adventure, or a deep-dive historical tour, RideTHISbike and our trusted partners deliver authentic Louisiana experiences led by knowledgeable, passionate guides.
We’re located just 1½ blocks off Canal Street — a short walk from the Ritz-Carlton, Hyatt French Quarter, Holiday Inn Maison Dupuy, and Courtyard Marriott French Quarter, with most other major hotels nearby.
