I've visited Leavenworth 30+ times in my life, most often for the Christmas Tree Lighting festival, but also as a drive-through on my way to Chelan over many summers. I had so much fun learning more about the history/local perspective of Leavenworth from our tour-guide, Julie.
I planned a surprise weekend for my boyfriend after having to cancel several vacation during COVID19. I looked for activities that would be fun for both of us, not too hot (as we visited in August) and would help us burn off some of the delicious food/drinks we indulged in all weekend. This activity was perfect for all three of these objectives!
The electric bikes are great because you can get as hard of a workout as you want - I personally tried to get as much of a workout as I could, but my boyfriend was enjoying the throttle/lack of peddling that came with it.
Julie as a tour guide was awesome. She shared with us about where the Sleeping Lady name comes from, how the locals know when to plant their seed starters, and more native inside knowledge. I'd highly recommend folks take this tour while in Leavenworth!
