Additional Info

Specialized infant seats are available
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
The electric bikes will take all of the hard work out of your ride. We routinely have riders that span the spectrum of age and fitness. The main requirement is that you be coordinated and fit enough to balance a 55-pound bike. A training and practice session is provided at the start of each tour. For people that would like to go on the tour but are not able to balance a bike, it is possible to arrange a ride on the back of one of our stretch cargo bikes that will be driven by another person in your party.
Legally, you must be 16 years or older to operate an electric bike. Guides reserve the right to request proof of age of any rider. Riders should also be at least 5 feet tall to operate their own bike. Guests younger than 16 may ride as a passenger with an adult in their group on the back of one of our cargo bikes or in a child seat (for children ages 1-6 or up to 48.5 pounds).
Tours are subject to favorable weather conditions. If there is light rain in the forecast but none at the start of the tour, we will decide together at the time of the tour whether to ride. We will provide rain ponchos and rain covers for the storage bags on the bikes to protect your belongings. If canceled due to poor weather, you will be given the option of an alternative date or full refund.
Social distancing enforced throughout experience
Gear/equipment sanitised between use
Guides required to regularly wash hands
Contactless payments for gratuities and add-ons

We’ll take the peaceful Reed Creek Greenway as we climb through North Asheville neighborhoods up to the historic Grove Park Inn to get a magnificent view from the Sunset Terrace. • Heading back downtown, we’ll stop in Pack Square, a perfect vantage point to learn about Asheville’s abundant art-deco architecture, the 2nd largest collection in the U.S. We will share stories of Asheville's recent history, its challenges and triumphs.

We visited Asheville with dear friends for a reunion and wanted to explore more of the city than just outside our hotel. The Electro Bike Tour made climbing Asheville's hills a breeze. Our guide Torin, was also the business owner and does a great job introducing visitors to this city with a great deal of information only a local would know. We highly recommend this tour for anyone who can ride a bicycle.

Thanks for taking the time to write such a kind review! I had a blast riding with your group and I'm so glad that you enjoyed the ride too! One of my favorite aspects of leading tours is how much opportunity there is to talk and connect along the way! I'm glad you felt that you got a local's perspective, and I appreciate the great feedback you all gave me during the ride and through this review. I learned a lot too! We are planning a new tour for next spring and have so much more to share, so if you come back to Asheville please be our guests again! Torin

This is a great bike tour. We never rode electric bikes before and they were really fun! It was really nice getting to stop in and tour many of the sites (the hotel, the gardens, etc.) too! More than just a ride by tour. Very interesting and fun! We highly recommend!

We loved our electric bike tour of Asheville. Our knowledgeable guide showed us places that we probably wouldn't have discovered on our own. It was our first time on electric bikes and we had a blast. Thanks again - Sarah and Justin, New Zealand
