Colonia Aktiv Bike Tours

We just finished a private tour (4 of us) with Peter and we could not be more satisfied.

The bikes were in excellent condition and totally ready on our arrival. The support staff were friendly and efficient.

But… it was Peters knowledge, rapport and pace that really put the whole event “over the top”. He was well versed in his subject and surprised us with a lot of very interesting history. We had a couple intermediate bikers in our group and he was therefore careful and cautious in his pace so they felt safe.

We’ve done bike tours in several major cities. This tour is unquestionably in the very top tier.

Thank you to Peter and team!

We did the English tour on Saturday with Peter, and we were very happy. Knowledgeable, great bikes, nice route with enough shade, break in the middle and punctual.

Really enjoyed the English language 'Cologne Fascination'.
Rainier our guide was superb, he went at nice pace and told good stories and also some jokes too.
Danke schon, a great way to see the city and get orientated.

We booked the street art tour last weekend for a company trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the bikes were very good as well. To be recommended!

Great bike hire shop. The important bits, No deposit, You get a lock so you can return the bike if the shop is closed. Really good bikes. The owner gave us so much info on ALL the things we asked about. Perfect way to see the city and enjoy a great day in Koln.

I guess our expectations were ether high or Cologne just did not take our interests. The tour was fine and did a good overview of the history and current "vibe" of Cologne. The guide was certainly knowledgeable and prepared. It just seemed we went a long way for "meh", excluding the Cologne Cathedral. We found that after the tour we only had taken a handful of pictures, and almost all of them were of the cathedral. Perhaps my review is more of Cologne than it is of Colonia Aktive tours. Our tour did not include time to go into the cathedral or any other venue. However, once we noted to our guide this would be our only opportunity to enter the Cathedral, she made time for us to spend 15 minutes inside.

I will say, they do need to work on their online shopping cart provider. I am in IT and there was just no good reason for it to be so bad. We never could get it to charge our card and had to arrange paypal instead of a simple online purchase.
