I highly recommend!! We had never been to Oktoberfest our guide was fun and knew a lot... Great tour for a newbie

This is our 2nd time with Fat Tire Tours just an awesome time as usual ! Knowledgeable guide, fun city, relaxed pace with interesting stories. Bike ride was one highlight of our time in Munich. Great stops too get "vibe"of the city. Worth the $$

Our guide, Rob was outstanding! That was my second fat tire tour; the first was in London, also very good! Rob made Munich really come alive. He was a gracious, enthusiastic guide with a good amount of patience and adherence to safety. His tidbits of German were helpful and his knowledge of the city, country and its history were craftily entwined in his stories about each of the several sites. The ride itself was easy as it's broken into many segments permitting you to cover so much more ground than a walking tour. That was my traveling companions first bike tour and she looks forward to another. If you can ride a bike and your planning to visit Munich, take this tour!

We toured the Munich City Center with tour guide Mark P. Saw a lot of the city we wouldn't otherwise see, enjoyed being outside, learned some history about Munich as well as local and area culture. Something I really appreciate about Germans is their ability to see history and their past with Hitler's reign as a past that must be taught and not whitewashed so that it doesn't happen again. Americans would do well to take a page from Germany's book and stop whitewashing our own past. But back to the tour... we stopped at a beer garden for brews and food, saw the wave at the head of a Munich canal that has produced 1000s of surfers in an area an outsider wouldn't equate with surfing. Very cool to see. Mark was incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire tour enjoyable. At the end, he spent time with us recommending places to see and how we might get there.

*Now called Munich Bike Rental @ this location Wandered in on foot and this did not disappoint! Super affordable, bikes were safe & in great condition, Steve spoke English fluently (he's from the US) and gave us perfect instructions. We had so much fun exploring Munich on bikes. Highly recommend. Steve's help & suggestions were excellent. Ask for him! read more
I went on a bike tour today around Munich. Michelle was our guide and she seemed super knowledgeable about Munich's history. I opted to get an e bike but the tour was super flat and I could have pulled it off on a regular bike. Overall, everything went smooth and I saw a lot of city landmarks. read more
What an incredible Oktoberfest experience with Fat Tire Tours! We had Mark as our guide and he was an absolute gem!!! He's friendly, fun, and overflowing with knowledge. The whole thing was seamless: you meet at a set location, get to know the group, then hop on the subway together for a quick ride to the Oktoberfest grounds. Along the way, Mark filled us in on all the best traditions, fun history, insider tips, and of course, where to find the best food and beer. One of the biggest perks? A table reservation inside one of the tents. That alone makes the tour worth it. Mark made sure everyone had what they needed, helped us order (a real MVP move when you're trying to navigate German menus in a packed tent), and kept the good vibes rolling the entire time. Highly, highly recommend this tour if you want the stress free, maximum fun version of Oktoberfest. Prost! read more

My wife and I took the bike tour with our daughters, ages 11 and 13, and had a fantastic time. Our tour guide, Steve, made the trip fun and interesting. We ate lunch at a beer garden and saw many of the important sights in the city. We have been to Munich several times and the bike tour helped us make a little more sense of the city. The electric bikes are fantastic. They are easy to ride and allowed us to cover a lot of ground. I definitely recommend taking this tour. read more

Had a great ride and learned a lot about the city. Stopped at a beer garden in the English Garden part way through. We'd highly recommend. A special shout out to guide Rob, who was patient with a large group and very informative. read more

Great way to see inner city of Munich. Our guide, Thor, was very nice and knowledgeable and the bike tour was very easy. Probably helped that my wife and I were the only two on the tour. So basically private. read more

We took the segway tour last weekend for my friend's 50th birthday- we also added on the motorized bike tour as well - which I believe they just started doing. We had a blast!! Very professional safety training and our guide - a cute Irish boy- was MORE than patient with all of us (we were a large group of women). A great way to see a wonderful city. I would highly recommend this company. Thanks Tex!!! read more

This is a must for Munich, in the summer. Our guide, Stevo (Steve McGill), was excellent. He made sure that everyone in our group mastered the Segway, visited all spots on the tour (and some that were not) with full narrative and that we had a great time. He even gave us an extra hour. Thanks, StevO!! read more

My daughter and I took the 4.5 hour tour in August and it was a great experience. We got to see the major sites at a leisurely pace and had a nice lunch in the park. Our guide Steve from Ireland was very knowledgeable and engaging and kept us all informed and entertained. It's really a terrific way to see the city. read more

History
Established in 1999.
In 1999 Founder David Mebane created Bullfrog Bike Tours with a goal of bridging the gap between English speaking travelers and Paris with a simple three hour bicycle tour. On the first day of tours in 1999, Bullfrog Bike Tours didn't welcome a single guest, but that changed very quickly. Though Paris boasted endless competing attractions and options for guests, David's commitment to providing superior customer service with a focus on giving each customer the fantastic, private, and personal experience they sought quickly set him out from the crowd. As the tours grew in size and popularity, the company built a team obsessed with finding ways to grow and improve. That growth came in the way of several new brands and just as many new locations. Over the next 11 years, now operating as Fat Tire Bike Tours, the business grew to multiple European markets and four domestic locations. Fat Tire Bike Tours introduced three sister brands specializing in Segway Tours, walking tours, and skip-t

Zum 10. Hochzeitstag waren wir letzte Woche ein paar tage in München. Am Donnerstag fand unser Highlight statt: Eine Segway tour. Wir haben uns für die Schnuppertour entschieden und waren 30 min vor Star vor Ort. Tex (der Chef und unser Führer) hat mit uns ene Privattour gemacht, die einfach spitze war. Wir haben auf dem innenhof geübt uns wurden dann auf dei Menschheit losgelassen. Alles mit viel Spaß, aber auch der nötigen gewissenhaften Einweisung + Sicherheitsübungen inkl. Helm. Wir haben durch die Segways & TEX viel von München gesehen, nette Geschichten erfahren und tolle Orte kennen gelernt. Mit Tex würden wir diese Tour bestimmt nochmal machen. Durch seine InsiderTipps hatten wir noch nteressante Ziele für unsere letzten beiden tage in München. Wir sagen DANKE. Birgitt & Marc read more

Wir waren eine Gruppe von 8 Personen, und obwohl der Wettergott es mit uns nicht all zu gut gemeint hatte, hat es trotz heftigem Regen suuuuuper viel Spaß gemacht! Wir waren alle überrascht wie einfach das anlernen zum fahren mit den Dingern ist, und wie viel Spaß es doch machen würde damit rum zu düsen! Wir waren danach etwas durchgefroren durch das nasse Wetter, aber mit einem fetten Smile im Gesicht! Wir wollen es beim schönen Wetter unbedingt wiederholen! read more

In einer kleinen Runde an einem regnerischen Nachmittag hatten wir trotz des Wetters (Regenponchos sind beim Anbieter vorhanden) einen Riesenspaß bei der Segwaytour durch die Münchener Innenstadt! Ein kompetenter Tourbegleiter mit super Fachwissen über die Stadt nebst lockerer Einführung in das Segwayfahren rundeten das Ganze dann ab. Sehr zu empfehlen! read more
