Thanks to Newy Rides for a great day out cruising around seeing all that Newcastle has to offer. I had considered Newcastle to be an industrial city with not much happening but our guide for the day Ben certainly showed how wrong I was about that.
Ben was genuinely bursting with enthusiasm to show off the area, giving great insight in to the history of the City while showing his favourite places to eat and drink around Newcastle on the way.
Each of the local distilleries, breweries and eateries were very unique places with exceptional food and drinks, the staff were insightful giving their time to have a chat about the history and what they’re producing. I’ll certainly need to track down the gin and beer from these places for home.
The last stop was the perfect way to cap off a great day, sharing our highlights and having a laugh over great food and a few takeaway beers from the bottle shop next door.
The wide promenades and bike lanes make cycling the perfect way to get around Newcastle at a leisurely pace, even for me not being the most confident rider it was an easy and enjoyable ride cruising around the harbour and beaches then through quiet neighbourhood streets. It sure beat having to find a park or catching Ubers around.
I can certainly recommend Newy Rides to not only tourists but also locals as a fun and entertaining day out to see the culture and history of this vibrant and rapidly changing city.
I can’t wait to share this gem of a tour and bring friends up to do it again one day.

We’ve visited Newcastle many times, as we’re considering moving there from Sydney, but always struggled to understand what it is the locals love about the place.
We were really sceptical about doing a tour, especially in our own country, but Ben nailed the brief. He blew us away with A+ service and hidden gem finds.
There’s no brightly coloured dorky helmets or bikes. You don’t stick out like a tourist at all and Ben is hilarious. We’d actually already been to one of the places on the itinerary and while happy to go back, Ben with a big grin detoured us to his personal fav cafe instead.

Ben was very friendly and took us to interesting areas of Newcastle I did not know existed. Here, among other sites, I saw some great street art. it was great to stop at a cafe along the way and share a coffee and interests with the other riders.

There were so many moments during the ride that I found myself thinking "OMG I love this place?".
I discovered so many hidden treasures I had no idea were in my backyard.
I bought a bottle of gin, I ate some delicious authentic Texan food and I found some new places to take my interstate visitors next time they come to Newy.

I would definitely recommend the tour for both locals and tourists. Ben takes you to beautiful distilleries, breweries and local street art. We visited places I hadn't heard of. The food was magnificent, the bikes were comfy and Ben is a very friendly and knowledgeable guide.

I had a lot of fun on this tour with Ben. He was very knowledgeable and right from the get go you can tell he is very passionate about Newcastle and cycling! I was only in town for a short period and by the end I felt like I had a much better grasp on all the things that make Newcastle great. The itinerary that Ben put together was so well balanced and even for someone like me who hadn't ridden a bike in years. it wasn't daunting at all.
I also really appreciated that Ben was constantly keeping an eye on me and making sure I wasn't feeling or getting lost - it did get very busy at points! It really was an awesome way to experience the city and since then I've resolved to move to Newcastle (not kidding) and buy a bike. Happy days.

We did the Essentials x Burbs tour and had such a fun experience! Ben was a fantastic guide, taking us to some of the quintessential Newcastle spots, telling us a bit of the history and fun facts as well as taking us to some of the lesser known 'locals' spots. Newy Rides is an incredible way to explore Newcastle and see what the city has to offer! I'd highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Newcastle, or those who are simply keen to get out and explore the city from a different perspective. Thanks Ben for being an awesome guide and sharing your local knowledge with us! We experienced amazing harbour and coastal views, street art, buildings, gin distillery tour and more!

Had an awesome experience with Newy rides.
Not at all strenuous for me who isn’t at all athletic.
Great views , delicious lunch , refreshing stop at a distillery , quirky local facts and Ben’s outstanding customer service. Money well spent. Highly recommend it.

We had avail this tour on our short vacation to the New Castle which was very well organized and informative by our tour guide Ben. It was really a fun adventure, cycling through all the main spots in and around the city. If you are new to this city and want to know more, this is the tour you choose .
