FreeWheelin' delivers an outstanding cycling experience in New Orleans, with knowledgeable staff like Ryan and Teddy earning consistent praise for their enthusiasm and local expertise. The electric bikes are well-maintained, fast, and perfect for covering serious ground around the city. Whether you're joining a guided tour or renting for self-guided exploration, you'll get thorough instructions, helpful route suggestions, and quality equipment including helmets and locks. The French Quarter location makes pickup convenient, and the after-hours return system works smoothly. Tour guide Teddy gets mixed feedback on his presentation style. Most travelers love his storytelling and deep knowledge of New Orleans neighborhoods and history, finding him passionate and engaging even in pouring rain. However, a few reviewers noted he speaks very quickly, which can be challenging for non-native English speakers or those trying to catch every detail. Two visitors reported uncomfortable political commentary during their interactions, so be aware that conversation may occasionally veer into personal territory beyond standard tour content.
We had a phenomenal time on our e-bike tour. Our tour guide, Teddy, was an incredible storyteller and taught us so much about the rich history of New Orleans. This tour exceeded our expectations in every way. Bikes were well maintained, fast and the different stops were very informative. It poured rain but we still had fun and Teddy even took the rain as a chance to teach us about the water level.
