The heart of our city is seen through its many other historic neighborhoods, such as the beautiful Faubourg Marigny; and there is no better way to explore them than with New Orleans' original bicycle tour company. Join us as we take you for a bike ride around the old Creole neighborhoods and tell you the stories of the New Orleans that most tourists miss. The ride is relaxed, with plenty of time to ask questions, and a stop along the way at a neighborhood bar where you can find out all you want about local life while drinking a delicious Bloody Mary, if you like. For those who want to delve a little deeper, we offer a tasty Neighborhood Culinary Tour and a Historic Drinking Tour (where you get to indulge as you learn), all travelling through our streets like the locals do, on easy to ride classic cruiser bicycles. « less

PRO'S: we increased the size of our group & they accomodated, encouraged questions, fun & educational, asked us how many bar stops we wanted, recommended bars & restaurants & bands. Good job, Jef! CON'S: no fault of the CoC, but it was colllllllld a week ago. TIP'S: show up a few minutes early to get situated and empty your bladder.... More

We took the original creole tour and it was one of the highlights of our trip. It really was the best way to see different neighborhoods you just don't see otherwise, and to get away from the big tourist spots. Our tour guide was excellent- very knowledgeable and friendly. The pace is laid back which suited us just fine! We... More

We took the culinary bike tour this trip to New Orleans ....having thoroughly enjoyed the Creole neighborhood bike tour a couple of years ago. The trip was so much fun and such a great way to see different neighborhoods in New Orleans. We visited four sites and the food was terrific at each one. Our guide, Cassidy, was entertaining and...

This was a fun bike tour for us. There are a few tours to choose from: Creole -neighborhood history, cuisine, or drinking. We did the neighborhood history bike tour and really enjoyed it. It was a group of six and our tour guide, Laura. She is very knowledgeable and entertaining. We rode through the "French" neighborhoods that were quaint and... More

We looked for the 6th star to properly rate this tour but we may have been drunk and couldn't find it. Not really drunk! REALLY needed the 6th star though. We took this tour in late Feb with Lara. It was the highlight of our trip! Her love for the city and her passion for the tour made us believe... More

As a group of four with one "non-cyclist, this was one of the highlights of our trip. We did the Creole tour. It's easy riding at a relaxed pace on quiet streets. By all means, take the bus tour but then do the cycling tour to get the real feel of the area. Tour guide Keith was excellent with his... More

Headed out on Monday 4/15 for a culinary biking tour. There was a light mist and we were a tad concerned. Our tour guides gave us an option of going or not and said that they would pr rate tour if we did not make it all the way through during the rain. We all opted in and headed off.... More

internet search of biking in New Orleans led to a website of the Conspiracy of Cruisers bike tours. We signed up for the culinary cruise but a T storm cancelled the trip. My wife had a conference so I signed up for their Creole history tour. Fantastic experience. We rode fat tired single gear old fashioned bikes. Which proved a... More

This bike tour deserves the high rankings it has received. We took the basic tour for $49 a head. The guide was knowledgable and fun and left you with a much greater appreciation of neighborhoods you might not otherwise see. The CoC sets you up with a bike, helmet (optional), and water. These are one speed cruisers which are adequate... More
