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 had a great bike tour. Alex was an exception guide. We have taken e-bike tours in many cities in multiple countries and this was the best. E-bikes are the best way to see Asheville. Don’t wait, book the tour.

Fun way to see a lot of Asheville. Started with the city center and then made our way up through the Montford historic district to the Omni Grove Park Inn. The e-bikes made it easy to deal with the hills on the way there. Matt our guide did a great job of fitting the bikes to each ride and covered how to use them and had great history of Asheville along the way at our stops. If you have not ridden an e-bike before, it takes a couple of starts and stops to get used to it as it is much heavier than a normal bike but super easy to ride. Bring a water bottle for the stops along the way.

Thanks Steve! We are glad Matt showed you all a good time. E-biking in Asheville provides an intimate feel with your surroundings as we showcase our beautiful city. It also makes riding up our multiple climbs a breeze, as well as allowing us to cover a lot of ground more quickly. We are glad you got the hang of it easily and enjoyed your tour. We appreciate you riding with us and taking the time to leave us a great review. Be well!

Fantastic tour! Lela was a wonderful tour guide- she was knowledgeable about the area and the history of Asheville. Our tour was just my family - me, husband and 12 year old. All 3 of us had a great time! We stopped at quite a few landmarks and even stopped by a blackberry bush. First time eating berries off the vine. Thanks Lela, we will be back!
