07/27/2023 Let the "LEO Birthdays begin..." I had a couple first timers with me to Louisville, KY. And thought to myself "Hey, Thirty Pedaler" what a great way to tour the town a little, then we can re-visit anything that look eye popping the next couple of days. Me losing track of time, I do recommend booking distillery/brewery/Pedaler tours weeks (if not months in advance.) I was lucky that some still were able to accommodated my party of 6 (tip: if you don't see any slots open for your whole party, call and maybe they can squeeze 1 or 2 more.) Alright back to Thirsty Pedaler, our tour guide "AUSTIN" aka "Austin Williams" from second 1 was awesome and had great history knowledge, how the neighborhoods are changing, places to eat/drink/have fun.... Don't let Austin sucker you into drinking every time you see a Red or Blue car, they started appearing out of no where! REFUSE!!! :) Pedel...Pedel..Pedal.!!!!!! - Austin so demanding!!! Austin, thank you for the great memories!!! From: Uncle K and crew........ read more

If you've ever thought to yourself, "I'd never be one of those loud, obnoxious people on a booze bike." HIGHLY recommend that you try. My friends and I were in town for a 30th birthday party, and this was one of the highlights of our trip. I can't remember the name of our tour guide, but she was so fun and such a great sport. Our first stop was picking up drinks at a corner store, then we went to 2-3 bars. While those places were cool, my favorite part was our mini photoshoot along the waterfront. WHEEEE!!! What a blast. Whether you're with friends or coworkers, make sure someone in your party is a good DJ. Take lots of pictures, and tip your driver well! read more

I recently went on The Thirsty Pedaler with a group of people I work with. We had a great time! This is definitely a unique experience, and unlike anything else I had done before. As it turns out, it was much more difficult than any of us were expecting! I thought it would be a leisurely pedal while we sipped our drinks.. Nope! There's a lot of resistance in those pedals, and you have to pedal hard! We were all sweating by the time we made it to the first bar! But, it was a warm day while we were out. There are two routes you can choose from, the Bourbon Route and the Nulu Route. Which route is right for you will depend on several factors like time of day (some bars may not be open), which bars you want to visit (they prefer all of your bars be on the same route), etc. They let us choose our route just before hopping on the bike, so we just reviewed the list and chose the Bourbon Route on a whim. We opted to visit El Barrio and Down One. Each bar on the routes runs specials for The Thirsty Pedaler, which is nice. El Barrio got us in and out in no time, and they were well-versed in having people stop in from the Thirsty Pedaler route. We had 1/2 off margaritas and free chips and salsa. Down One had no idea what we were talking about when we walked in, told us they didn't have specials for that, and were pretty slow about serving us and getting us back out the door. Since you only have about 25 minutes in each bar, this could be an issue depending on the size of your group. Overall our experience was great! Our Thirsty Pedaler captain was fun and bubbly, and we all had a great time. I would definitely recommend trying out the Thirsty Pedaler at least once, just to have the experience. And it was great for our work crew, because it really is a bonding experience, so if you're looking for something for your office to do, I'd say this is definitely it. TIL: Definitely bring a cooler stocked with beverages. You can't bring drinks out of the bars, so you'll want to be stocked on the bike while you're pedaling. You can only bring cans, and everything has to go in a solo cup (but they'll supply these if you don't have them). Our group also brought Jello shots, and that worked out really well, so I'd highly recommend that! read more

I and my friends came down to Louisville, KY for my Bachelor party. This is an amazing city and worth while visiting. Sean our drive picked us up and drove us through an amazing experience. If your visiting this city it is a must that you schedule a pub crawl with Thirsty Pedaler. Sean professionally drove us around and brought us to the best bars in the center of the city. He was also incredibly flexible and gave great personal feedback to possible bar we wanted to visit when the tour was done. Jenifer running the main office was incredibly helpful and really worked with me in organizing a fantastic experience for everyone. We visited Louisville,KY for 5 days and this was the best experience and time we had. I will hands down schedule another tour and pub crawl with them anytime I come back to the city. Thank you Sean and Jennifer you guys really made our experience in Louisville amazing. I can't wait to schedule my next tour. read more

Pedal Pub - Pedicabs Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

So much fun! There were 9 of us for a bachelorette party, Katelyn(sp) was our driver. She was great!! First stop about a half hour after pedaling was Garage bar, it was a good stop! Nice atmosphere for outside sitting! I had a Rum Punch and it has me wanting another one now! They had a 2/$5 Miller Light special. A few others wanted Michelob Ultra or Bud light and they dont carry. Back to pedaling, the seats hurt your butt after 2 hours and if you are short you will have to get on one of the seats that are adjustable. I didn't and couldn't hardly pedal! The driver said it was 70/30 that it will drive you around but you do need to pedal some. One person will be the bar tender and be in the middle to help pass out beers for everyone. No glass. They do fun little things while driving for left side take a drink, right side take a drink, everyone take a drink! We had a awesome playlist that we had cranking and everyone was dancing and singing! So fun! Second bar stop was Troll bar under the bridge. It was pretty cool. They had $15 fishbowls. Bourbon or tequila. We got one of each, they were pretty good. We didn't get any food but it spelled good! Back to pedaling, we headed back to 4th street and the 2 hours went super fast! We all wanted to stay on longer it was so fun!! We were all pretty tipsy after we got off at 4:45. Definitely would go again!! Also coolers go in the center with the bartender so a couple good size coolers are perfect! read more

This is a lot of fun! Great for visitors, bachelorette/bachelor parties, or a get together with friends! Wide range of bar options, and the driver was so fun! I would definitely recommend. read more

I can't remember the last time that I had so much fun! What a wonderful and exciting way to enjoy the city! We had the best driver, Melissa who was cool and nice and having as much fun as we were. We took off and headed for Garagebar, hooked up an Iphone and pedal - danced our way down market street. Depending how fast your group is - you get to stay at each bar for about 20 to 25 minutes. We had 16 in our group so I was a little worried that we wouldn't have time to get drinks and finish them, but we were fine with a goal in mind. Garagebar patio was the perfect first stop. Next up was Haymarket. None of us had ever been there, and we all loved it. Pinball machines, reasonable prices, and room for all of us at the bar. Everyone was tickled that we have a new bar to frequent. Our last stop was Troll Pub. They had a drink special for thirsty pedalers- half off pints and wells. Awesome. We even got a pizza from Bearnos and ate it with Melissa before we headed back. And, y'all... it's a workout! We were all shocked at how hard it was at some points. It was hilarious to see some of my friends fighting to get their pedals going. I am quite short, so there was only one seat that I could reach the pedals. Keep that in mind. There are also several seats that don't have pedals if you have someone in the group that has a bum knee or something. I am already trying to think of a reason to hop on one of these bikes again! Huzzah! read more

What you need to know about the Thirsty Pedaler is that it was the best time I've ever had drinking (hat tip to Wes for bar tending), pedaling, and singing ("Don't Stop Believing!!! Hold on to that feeling...") in Downtown Louisville with my friends for my buddy Stiller's 40th birthday in, well, ever. Thanks for the memory. Pro tip: There is nothing you can say or do that will make the people driving with/around you in traffic not look at you annoyed or confused. Cheers! read more

Great experience with The Thirsty Pedaler! Did a coworker bonding experience the other evening with them. Our driver was friendly and informative, and knowledgable about area bars. While the wristbands didn't get us insane deals at our stops, they did help lighten the hit on the wallet. Great way to check off a bunch of stops on the Urban Bourbon tour! I had never done a pedal pub like this before and wasn't sure how much I would like it but I wound up having a blast. If you've got at least 6 friends willing to do it, if highly recommend it! read more

3 stars = average/ok. I had fun while I did the thirsty peddler, but the experience as a whole just fell short of what I was expecting. You definitely need to bring a cooler if you do this because you will be peddling far more than visiting any bars. I don't have anything really bad to say about it. I just wasn't blown away. read more

So we were in town for a bachelorette party and booked The Thirsty Pedaler, we had Molly as our driver and she was amazing. We had AWFUL weather, cold & pouring rain but she was so optimistic and sweet. She took us to McDonald's so we could load up on drunken food for when we got back to our loft. If it wasn't for her it truly would have been a miserable experience but she made ALL THE DIFFERENCE! read more

Pedal Pub - Bachelorette party ft Molly - Pedicabs Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

The Thirsty Pedaler played a big part in making a great and successful bachelorette weekend in Louisville happen! I booked a Saturday Private afternoon tour for a group of 14. The booking and payment process could not have been easier. They also send out great reminder emails and text alerts that help you make sure you're ready to ride. My group had a special request, the brides mother is visually impaired and has a guide dog TJ. They were so accommodating and let TJ ride along too (he wasn't much help pedaling though). Our driver was Sam and he kept it fun and did a great job. The specials you get at bars and the recommendations were top notch. I would highly recommend this for a group looking to have fun and go around the city in an different way! read more

So much fun!! We did the Halloween peddler so we got a haunted tour! Our tour guide gave us a fun tour, showed us the haunted spots and told us a lot of history that I had no idea about!

Had an awesome time on the thirsty pedaler! We have gone the last three years and it doesn't disappoint. A must go to in Louisville!

My husband and I had an awesome time. We met really cool people. Our travels consisted of the Troll and Garage. Both places were truly unique and lot of fun. It is definitely worth the money. Everyone should try it at least once..... you won't regret!!! So ...go out there and get you're thirst on!!! read more

We took the Thirsty Pedaler out for a spin for a work/friends outing and it was AMAZING. Our guide, Dustin, was so fun and laid back, we got to play our own music through the speakers, and got great service at the three bars we went to. (Some bars will offer discounts for being on the Thirsty Pedaler--Troll Pub, Haymarket Whiskey Bar, etc). I totally recommend this to everyone! We'll be doing it again soon! read more

Our guide was "K Stamp" and she was the bomb dot com. We had a group of 6 on a public tour and it was perfect. We had a great time pedaling, instructions on signals, and a good amount of time at each bar. The deals we had at each bar was a good deal; will definitely do it again! We were definitely sore at the end but a good-sore. Everyone had a great time and we were all safe during the trip! read more

Matt is awesome, so hospitable, awesome tour guide, give this guy a raise!! Would return because of Matt!!

The business was extremely helpful when the desired tour had a wait list. They accommodated us, via their Facebook page after hours, so all of the party could ride together.. So much Fun!!! Our Tour Guide, Matt was awesome! He knew the city and exactly where to take us. He had a great personality, great customer service and engagement, it was almost like it was a part of the party! Definitely recommend the pedaler! read more

My friend and I had a really awesome tour with Matt! He was super personable and funny! He also had a great taste in music.

Tom was awesome. We were here for a bachelorette party and the Thirsty peddler made the weekend the best! Thank for being so fun and cool! Highly recommended to all! read more

Definitely recommend. They're very accommodating! I called after hours to set up a last minute tour and Scott tried everything to get a driver for us. Very helpful and being able to call after hours was definitely a big plus! Wonderful customer service! read more

Shawn was THE BOMB and we had such a good time on our ride!! He made some bar suggestions, and when we weren't quite ready to get off yet he allowed us to just circle the block until we were ready. He seriously went above and beyond to make sure it was a great experience for my sister's bachelorette. He even had a backup phone battery charger that he allowed us to use so our music didn't have to end!! 10/10 recommend!! read more

Pedal Pub - Shawn was the best driver we could have asked for!! - Pedicabs Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

We had an absolute blast today! The bar stops were perfect for our bachelorette party and our driver (Chris) was very entertaining.

Amanda F's review doesn't make much sense to me. She liked it but hasn't actually used it so she's going to give it a bad review? How about just not make a review at all? Obviously, I felt compelled to write a review after seeing that they have a 3 star rating for no reason. The thirsty pedaler is awesome! From just booking the reservation, to the super informative and user friendly website, they know how to run a business. Plus it it SUPER fun. I'm hoping that they'll soon be able to legally have alcohol on the bikes, but for now it is just a fun and interesting way to pub crawl from bar to bar. If you are looking for a unique and different idea for a party or celebration, the Thirsty pedaler is an awesome option. read more

While I only got half the experience (the bike was stationary at the NuLu festival), I still had a great time. Until I get to take that bad boy out for a spin, I can only give a mediocre rating. I recommend giving it a try. It has to be the coolest mobile drinking experience in this city. read more

It was so much fun. We went in September so there was a Halloween them. My bestfriend loved it for her birthday. Our driver/host Madison was great. It's worth it I promise! read more

Super fun time! Did a pizza crawl on Bardstown Rd, had a blast! Highly recommend the Thirsty Pedaler!

My friends and I did the private tour for a bachelorette party and had a great time.

Excited to book another tour soon! read more

Our family had a wonderful time and our driver provided the best customer service. Will was our driver and he very accommodating to our group. We were a group of 20s to 50s and it was a perfect event for all! I would highly recommend doing this with friends, family, co-workers! read more
