City On Pedals is a cosy, colourful, safe and well organised hostel that will surely make your stay in Amritsar an exciting and memorable experience. The staff and the owner are warm, always smiling and ready to sing, dance, party and have fun! My Lohri weekend here wouldn't have been special without them.
The dorms here are spacious, clean and comfortable. The common room and rooftop are spots where you will find fellow travelers hanging out, sharing their stories and experiences. The ambience is homely and peaceful.
The various city tours organised by City On Pedals will take you through the history, culture and architecture of the holy city. They take you to the best places to try the local cuisine, show you around the bustling market streets of the city, tell you unknown historical facts, take you to hidden gems, all-in-all give you the authentic local experience.
If you are travelling to Amritsar and looking for backpacker or budget options to stay, look no further.
I can now happily say I have a family back in Amritsar !!
Hey A
Thank you for taking out time and sharing you Amritsar experience. It was indeed the best time we could have. I and my entire team still cherish those moments and yes you definitely got a family here in Amritsar.
Good luck!!
See you soon
I’ve made 2 tours with city on pedals. The Golden temple tour is a must if you are in Amritsar. Incredible experience with guided access to different area. Later I joined to bike tour in the city. Although could be unbelievable in India it’s safe and is an adventure in the old city.
The say that they are open to support you in any situation and in my case they save my trip because my flight was cancelled and they could make a very fast reservation for the train. Many, many thanks and good luck dear friends!
C, glad you liked our tours and gave us an opportunity to show you around the city. Our team had an amazing time hosting you.
Please let me know if you need any help.
I know eating local food tour in India might be scary for many people but these guys from City on Pedals will make sure to take you to local places yet with super good quality and using good products. So dont be afraid and just ENJOY IT. We tried at least 7 different local dishes plus deserts.
One of the things I enjoyed the most about this tour was getting to know whats behind each of the dishes that we tried (curiosities, cultural staff, how to prepare them, etc).
In addition to that, roaming around the city looking for the best places to eat with a bycicle is FUN.
Hey S
Our team had a super fun time going on a tour with you. It was a great time hosting you in our hostel and listening to your travel tales.
Best of luck for your journey ahead.
Hope to see you soon.
City on Pedals are local people who've set up their own businesses here. You can join them by bike - or by tuk-tuk - to tour the stands, booths, kiosks and stalls that serve the famous Amritsari street food. And authentic it is - dal makhani, chole, puri, jalebi, gulab jamun, paratha, the dried mango stall. Robia the lady who took us is brilliant - bouncy, feisty Punjabi girl heading here mountain bike off into the swirls of traffic with her guests tagging along behind like a line of ducklings. The food is outstanding - the Punjab is like Italy where you get the best food amongst the people. In particular, rich, dark, meaty chole with the unctuous buttery parathas are a treat in themselves. Thoroughly recommended and very nice guys indeed.
Hey R
Thank you for giving us an opportunity to show you around in our city. Rabia had a wonderful time hosting you. Reading your feedback took me all over again to those food stalls.
Hope to see you soon.
We stayed at city on pedals for a couple of days and loved how helpful and kind the guys who work there are. They will spend ages chatting with you, giving you advice and tips that we have found very useful, not just in amritsar but in other parts of india too ! They also provided us with towels and a hot drink as soon as we arrived, which was lovely and much needed. Overall, would definately recommend city on pedals when you visit amritsar!
