About Us
Welcome to London Bicycle Tours
Locally owned, we focus on providing you with a memorable guided tour of the city we love. Whether you’re discovering London for the first time or seeing familiar spots with fresh eyes, we hope you’ll have lots of “wait till I tell my friends about this” moments.
We know every shortcut, every great coffee stop, and every quirky story that makes this place special.
You’ll be riding through heritage districts, gliding along an elevated dike, and cruising up and down secret laneways that only the locals know about.
Not to worry. This isn’t the Tour de France. We’ll be going at a relaxed pace.
And every year, we give a portion of our profits to local charities. Why? Because we passionately believe in giving back to our community!
Meet the founder
Lawrence Durham is a passionate storyteller who helps you uncover the real London, from the seat of a bicycle.
He’s an unapologetic and cheerful optimist who loves greeting people from around the world and who is crazily enthusiastic about sharing his city with everyone he meets.
Although Lawrence offers 3-season tours, he’s a 4-season cyclist who changes from summer tires to studded tires, so that he can continue riding his bicycle in the winter for everyday trips! There really isn’t any bad weather, only bad clothing choices.
He’s endlessly curious about his surroundings, loves researching every last little detail, and enjoys exploring his city.
If you’re that kind of explorer too, then join him for a ride through beautiful London… Ontario’s Forest City!
Telling stories that stick
Do you know why London has so many yellow brick buildings?
Strangely enough, the answer involves ancient glaciers and WW2 submarines.
What about the Tolpuddle Martyrs from England? How did they end up in London, Canada, out of all places in the world?
And why are Ontario Cottages (some with specially-built “London Doorways”) so prevalent here?
