About this tour

What to expect
You'll meet your guide and be fitted with a bike and optional helmet. The pace is leisurely—think wobbling between pubs rather than racing—so cyclists of any ability manage it. As you pedal through residential streets and market areas, the guide weaves tales of gin's darker chapters: its association with poverty, excess and Georgian excess. Drinks are dispensed from the quirky mobile bar; you'll taste three distinct gins neat, then receive two gin and tonics and a gin cocktail made on the spot. Streets get busy around markets, and the riding is flat but unpredictable underfoot. Expect cheeky humour and camaraderie among your group.
