What time does the tour depart?

Departure times change with the seasons: 2:30 PM from April to September, and 3:30 PM from October to March. Arrive 15 minutes early at 30 Harrington Street, The Rocks.

How long does the tour last?

The tour runs for approximately four hours, ending at around 6:30 PM in winter (April–September) or 7:30 PM in summer (October–March).

Do I need cycling experience?
