About Tucson Bike Tours

Guided Bike Tours in Tucson

Tucson Bike Tours is a Tucson, Arizona-based company that organizes guided bike tours through downtown. Its offering focuses on three themed routes that combine outdoor activity with history, urban art, and local food. The company presents itself as an option to see Tucson's main attractions on two wheels, with routes designed for cyclists of all levels.

Available Tours

The company's catalog includes three main tours, all lasting 2¼ hours with departures at set times:

  • Historic City Bike Tour: a 9-mile route departing at 9:00 am and 12:00 pm. It travels through historic and revitalized neighborhoods of Tucson, from old barrios to the modern academic area. It is designed for riders of all abilities.
  • Mural Bike Tour: a 7-mile route departing at 3:00 pm. It takes participants to 35 murals across the city, described on the site as an outdoor art gallery.
  • Taco Bike Tour: a 10-mile route departing at 3:00 pm. It combines biking with food stops centered on tacos, beer, and other local flavors.

The prices listed on the site are $65 for the Historic and Mural tours, and $80 for the Taco Bike Tour. When this profile was written, all three tours appeared as closed until October 10, 2026.

Tour Focus

The company's approach combines bike riding with interpretation of the surroundings. Guides share information about Tucson's history, art, and food, and the tours pass through both the relaxed bike circuit and livelier areas, such as the University of Arizona area. The site also mentions the contrast between the old adobes of the historic neighborhoods and the new downtown hotels.

Health and Safety Measures

The company states it has an impeccable safety record and applies that same care to Covid-19 precautions. Tours take place outdoors, and the only reason to go inside on any tour, even the Taco Bike Tour, is to use a restroom. Guides are vaccinated, social distancing is maintained while riding and at stops, and equipment is sanitized: helmets and handlebars are wiped down, and water bottles are cleaned, though you can bring your own. Bringing a mask is recommended for restroom visits, though it is not required while riding.

Guides and Equipment

The site includes sections dedicated to guides, bikes, and media, indicating that the company has its own team of guides and a set of bikes for the tours. The scanned material does not detail the technical features of the bikes or the names of the guides.

Tickets and Gift Certificates

The company offers the option to book tickets and purchase gift certificates through its website. Bookings are managed through an online ticket system.
