About this experience
Travel & Leisure Magazine recently named Art Bikes a "Top Pick"! This guided tour will take you through Jacksonville's historic neighborhoods, exploring our parks, public art and the St Johns River. We cross over the St Johns River on a brand new pedestrian bridge giving breathtaking views of downtown Jacksonville! Explore several historic districts including Avondale, Riverside, 5 Points, San Marco and downtown. All while riding one of our custom electric Art Bikes, each bike has been created by a local artist. The tour is led by experienced locals who will add entertaining, educational commentary to connect riders with the beauty and history of historic Jacksonville which is home to more buildings on the National Historic Register than any other city in Florida. On Sundays we do Sunday Funday Tours which feature local weekend festivals, breweries and other unique stops.
