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

A great way to start our stay in Asheville. We got a little exercise, explored the city, learned some history, got restaurant recommendations and visited the fabulous Omni Grove. Alex was a terrific guide. I felt safe the whole time and would not have wanted to do this without them. Highly recommend.

What a fun and pleasant experience! No wonder it's rated #1. Online booking was a breeze and Anna was very welcoming and helpful at check in. On site parking was convenient and a good value compared to the lots and garages up the hill. Our guide Brian gave an excellent prep ride class with just the right emphasis on safety. He also provided short historical briefings at key points of interest. Perfect balance of riding and rest stops, including a nice midpoint pause at the Grove Park Hotel with enough time to get a bathroom break and take photos of the amazing view. The Ebike made riding fun again for me. The bike does all the hard work for you, so you can just enjoy the tour. Appreciated that we got to see parts of the city I never would have known about otherwise. Love this tour, highly recommend.

The staff was very friendly. The location was great in that it was near all of the downtown activities but still provided parking. The bikes were up to date and worked perfectly, very comfortable to ride for all levels. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and fun, but was also cognizant of safety. He had great stories of Asheville history and was passionate about the city. He provided great insight on local places to visit. Highly recommend
