Get into the holiday spirit with an enchanting bike ride through London at Christmastime. Head to Lambeth in the afternoon to meet your guide and get fitted with a rental bike and helmet, then set off on a leisurely ride along cobbled alleyways, bike paths, and side roads.
Delight in the sparkle of Christmas lights as you pedal past illuminated attractions like the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and the London Eye. Continue to Sloane Square, where boutiques bedecked in twinkling lights beckon curious patrons, and pass the magnificent displays at England’s famous Harrods department store.
You’ll stop at Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, London’s spectacular Christmas attraction. Pedal past Christmas stands, visit the model bavarian village and warm yourself with a spicy cup of mulled wine. Marvel at the many themed bars like the ‘Swiss Chalet’ and check out seasonal attractions like the ice rink and the giant observation wheel.
The final leg of your tour takes you to the West End, where you’ll coast through the upscale shopping district that encompasses Regent, Oxford, Bond and Carnaby Streets. World-famous for its holiday presentation, this central shopping area glitters with colored light and decorations. See beautifully adorned window displays and feel the buzz of holiday shopping. From there, make your way back to Lambeth, passing through Covent Garden’s charming Christmas market on the way.
Your 3-hour bike tour ends at the departure point in the evening.
