Citypik

Bike city tourism

Cycling is one of the best ways to get to know a place: you cover more ground than on foot, you can stop when a façade catches your eye, and you are not tied to a tourist bus. Here is how to pair a bike with urban curiosity — with a guide on your phone.

1. More of the city, at your pace

By bike you cross neighbourhoods, canals and bridges without a group’s schedule. If a building looks interesting, you park for a moment, look, and ride on. The itinerary is not closed: you build it.

2. Free stops for architecture

Squares, markets, side streets and monuments seen from outside. The bike brings you closer to everyday streets and landmarks alike. The point is not a checklist — it is understanding what is in front of you.

3. A guide in your pocket (no fixed tour)

With Citypik you point your camera at a building and discover style, era, architect and history — with free scans every day. Ideal when you ride without a human guide: stop, scan and, if you like, listen to a short audio before you continue.

Start on the next bend

Rent or take your bike, pick a neighbourhood and try Citypik on the first façade that intrigues you. Bike tourism is also freer tourism.
