This is a very high rated activity so I suppose I am not adding much to the canon of reviews, but the tour was wonderful, and really pleased my whole family.
My wife is just recovering from surgery, and I am being treated for cancer, so we were a little concerned about whether all the up-hill and down would be too much for us, but the e-bikes did ALL the work, and we had all the fun. Do not worry if you are not in shape, these bikes take you up the steepest of SF hills with minimal effort on your part.
Our guide was very friendly, and watched out for our safety at all times. He really made the trip nice. The water bottles were a nice touch.
If I had any suggestions it would be as follows:
1) Dylan's should sell sweatshirts at their shop, as it is quite chilly in SF. We were very cold because we just wore light windbreakers which were not enough. We all would have bought something if they had it.
2) The trip was perhaps 30-60 minutes too long. We felt a tiny bit burned out by the end.
3) Expensive, but worth it. My teenagers who rarely get excited about anything had a super time.
All in all, a wonderful day. Thanks, Dylan's!

Hey Stephen, thanks so much for taking a chance on our Original City Loop Electric Bike Tour -- despite your initial hesitations. I'm thrilled to hear that we made it all worth it for you and your wife! These little Pedego e-bikes really do nearly all the work for you, hopefully going back to a regular bike won't be too disappointing after the tour ;)
Thank you so much detailed and honest feedback, it really helps us continue to create memorable experiences for travelers exploring San Francisco with us. You're right, SF is quite chilly because of Karl the Fog! We try our best to prepare guests for the weather through our confirmation emails, but also have sweaters for guests to use if they didn't bring enough layers for the tour. My apologies if these weren't offered to you and your family before heading out on tour. I'll be looking into ways of better communicating weather expectations to electric bike tour guests and ensuring our guides have sweaters on hand to lend to travelers who might need an extra layer of clothing. Thanks again for your honest review.
