I see and understand the mixed reviews...some context may be helpful to those reading. First, it's incredibly practical. There is no better way to avoid traffic and get to an event in style, on time, and affordably compared to parking next to a venue. Second, it's wildly fun and memorable. Riding over the river on the stone arch bridge with ice cream in hand on the 4th of July, enjoying the fireworks with no parking hassle--an experience that could be considered once in a lifetime. Slipping through the mob to the front of the stadium before AND after a game... Relief for your body after a long festival, concert, or convention...ask the driver to take you for some great take-out and back to the hotel, or if the night is too beautiful to stay in, tour the city until you find a bar that looks good. Giggling your heart out because the butterflies and city lights are the most joy you've experienced in ages? Priceless. Riding back and forth from free parking to the St. Paul Farmers' market with all your fresh purchases and an iced coffee on a sunny Sunday morning...I'm quite sure there is nothing better. But the drivers rent the bikes from the pedicab company, which is practical because of maintenance. This means you are really dealing with the independent drivers, who need to make enough to cover their rent for the bike and then some. This explains the other reviews. You can either pre-book or try to snag one on the street. At events like the State Fair or a sporting event, there will usually be one available out front. But pre-booking is better because you will get a "lifer" or someone who drives consistently. It also means the cab was set up especially for them, which makes a huge difference in your experience. Having taken pedicabs all accross the country and seen the overhead associated with them, $100/hour is a perfectly reasonable rate for a single cab of less than 500 lbs., and they have a radius of several miles. This means a ride of a few blocks could be 20 bucks, or perhaps 10 on a slow night. The best thing to do on the street is show the driver where you want to go and ask them how much. The seasoned ones will usually say something like "Just have a good time and pay me what it's worth when you get out" which means you are about to have a great time and will probably feel like tipping them...a few might quote you a price that is reasonable but seems high because it is more expensive than Uber, just remember Uber can't cut traffic. For pre-booking the rate still applies, but much is dependent on the location venue and timing. Communications during peak season can be tough due to supply and demand--during good weather, drivers want to be out, not making calls or setting up rides. Obviously the farther in advance you book the better, and if you are a season ticket holder, you should just get the number of one of the "lifer" drivers phone numbers to complete your experience. read more

Twin Town Pedicabs - Twins Stadium Exit - Pedicabs Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

My and my wife tried this this weekend. It was a super fun way to ride through Minneapolis on a date night. It wasn't cheap but the driver gave us 2 free drink tickets to where we were going. Very nice service, I appreciate getting around without using gas. read more

Really terrible service. Just awful, maybe it was a one time thing but who knows. My friends (2 other petite girls) and I decided to get into one of their cabs because our feet were hurting so badly, and we had the misfortune of getting in the cab of one of the rudest guys ever. Soon after we got on, he started cursing at us because someone gave us this flier saying we would leave "sh!t" in his cab that he'd have to clean up. Getting upset might be understandable to some extent, but cursing at us was completely unnecessary. There was other things he said and did afterward (like trying to get $20 out of us for riding less than 4 blocks), but honestly we should have got out of the cab as soon as he started cursing. I wish I had gotten his name so I could properly report him, but he'll be riding around with bad karma anyway. Just don't do it. It might be a nice idea but that's how a lot of things start off as. read more

Let the buyer beware. As a former frequent user of this service, I was shocked to find out that the drivers can charge any price they want at any time. I trip that was a $20 ride suddenly became $60 because the driver felt like it. To me this just smacks of opportunistic price gouging and scumbaggery. read more

Why would you ever take another cab when you can take a delightful carriage ride across Minneapolis on a beautiful summer night! This might have been the best part of my night. Who needs a party bus when you have a pedicab!? read more

I used their contact form to try to find out about a birthday tour of downtown Minneapolis. After waiting 24 hours, I again sent a contact form inquiring about their service. It's now been 72 hours without any reply to my inquires. I also called them often during this same time period, but no one ever answered the phone and when it went to voicemail, it stated that the box was full, so I couldn't even leave a message for them to call me. Twin Town Pedicabs has an effective sales prevention team and I don't know how they stay in business with behavior like this. Don't expect much in the way of good communication or customer service from them, as I found it just doesn't exist. read more

For my wife's 50th birthday celebration I tried to set up a pre-arranged ride. I first contacted the owner to get an idea of how much it would cost. He said he would get back to me. He didn't get back to me so I called five days later and he didn't have an answer but said he would get back to me. I tried several times to get some information from him and he just wouldn't call back and eventually he stopped answering the phone. The guy was a jerk. If he said he wouldn't have been able to provide the service that would have been fine but to never answer me is ridiculous. He wasn't very friendly on the phone either. read more
