May 16th-The Estate/Worth Tour. Price does not include bike rental. May bring your own bike.

THE MIDTOWN TOUR

There are three influential men to know about when learning the history of Palm Beach - Henry Morrison Flagler, Colonel E.R. Bradley and Addison Mizner. These men were the original forces that shaped the economic, social and architectural styles of Palm Beach, as it is seen today. The Midtown Tour introduces guests to this trio of influence as they pedal by historic homes, as well as some of the island's newest, most expensive "in-town" houses.

THE ESTATE SECTION / HISTORIC WORTH AVE. VIAS TOUR

In the town's history, " The Estate Section" was the area where the grandest mansions were built. These houses have since been preserved with landmark designations.

Only on the "the gilded isle" of Palm Beach, a resort town where the country's wealthiest spent the winter, can one see such spectacular architecture framed by ultra-lush landscaping. The design and craftsmanship that defines many of these spectacular houses could not be reproduced today. Renowned architects Addison Mizner, Marion Sims Wyeth, John Volk and Maurice Fatio, known as our "Fab Four," designed many of the landmarked estates on this tour. Guests will learn about each architect as they walk thru the historic vias on famed Worth Avenue and pedal past the historic estates.

THE NORTH END TOUR

The North End of the Island boasts a charming, almost "Key West" type ambiance, eclectic in architectural style, with homes considered small-by PB standards, surrounded by landscaping that is often overgrown. With no commercial area, the North End is quieter, funkier and the surfers will tell you, this is where the waves are "rad." This tour provides a chance for bikers to see some historic homes, to stop at the Inlet and see Peanut and Singer Islands and hear the stories about each. Guests then enjoy a ride back to where they started along the scenic ocean's edge.
