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

Torin is a STAR! We had a blast on his tour and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see Asheville in a fun kind of way. We usually do a bus tour through a new city we are visiting, but decided to do an electric bike tour this time and we were not disappointed! In fact, this may be the way forward for us. Torin was full of information and very helpful with tips and tricks. We still cannot believe that he took us through downtown Asheville in rush hour traffic without a single incident! We felt safe, learned a lot and had a fantastic time! Thank you!

Wow, what a flattering review! I've been riding an electric bike around Asheville for years, and it's also my favorite way to explore a new city. Electro Bike Tours is planning some new routes for next year so please tell your friends and come back and see us! Torin

Excellent tour with a mixture of downtown architecture, green ways, some neighborhoods, & the Grove Park Inn. Torin is an excellent tour guide! Thanks for the great morning! (We have just relocated to the Asheville area).

Thanks for the wonderful review! It was such a pleasure meeting you. Asheville is a small town and I'm sure our paths will cross again. We love serving locals, so please let your friends and family know about us. Electro Bike Tours is planning on offering additional tours in the future so please keep an eye out for those. Torin

What a blast! I can't say enough good things about Torin (the owner and our Tour Guide) and this "activity" overall. SO. MUCH. FUN. The highlight of our trip, really...and we had a great trip packed full of lots of fun things in Asheville. - The bikes are super easy to ride -- if you can ride a regular bike, you can do this. - The route was really fun - through quaint neighborhoods, downtown and a trip to the Omni Grove Park Inn. There is also a stop at the Botanical Gardens and the Basilica of St. Lawrence. - All along the way, Torin provided LOTS of fun info and tidbits about Asheville and it's history and neighborhoods. He was super accommodating and adjusted the time at each stop as we wished. I don't remember a question he couldn't answer -- he clearly knows and loves Asheville and her history. - Five Stars isn't enough... just a quality, well thought out and delivered experience. - And FUN...did I mention FUN?!? - If you can fit this in - DO IT - you'll be glad you did.
