5.00My wife and I joined friends on this bike tour and had a great day seeing the city! Our guide was very knowledgeable and went at a real nice pace for us to stop and enjoy different sites. Would definitely do it again!
Lots of fun. See what it’s like to be a local on a bike.

5.00100% honest review. Great host, great tour guide, lots of fun. You get to see a lot of the town and the riding is not hard because of the electric assist on the bike. You do need to realize that you will ride through town in some traffic, but that’s half the fun. If you get nervous, trying to zigzag through a little bit of traffic on a bike, this is may not be for you. Don’t let that keep you from signing up for this tour though. Very friendly staff in a small company that you want to support. Don’t forget to say hi to the dog.
Best excursion!

5.00We had a fantastic experience, so much fun seeing the sites on a bike. Would highly recommend. Our tour guide was awesome, so knowledgeable about the history. She took us to a fun little bistro for a glass of wine on the way back. Great way to end our day!

5.00This e-bike tour was one of the highlights of our entire Mediterranean cruise and may be my new favorite way to see a city in a single day. Our guide, Jordan, was outstanding. As someone who loves history, I was amazed by the depth of knowledge he shared throughout the tour. He didn’t just point out landmarks - he brought Marseille’s history to life. Learning about the city’s origins as an ancient Greek port, the rich traditions of its fishermen and seafarers, and the stories behind the city’s most famous sites made every stop memorable. The route was fantastic. We visited beautiful viewpoints, rode along the stunning turquoise Mediterranean coastline, explored the harbor areas, saw the impressive Mucem Museum, and made our way up to Notre-Dame de la Garde Basilica for breathtaking views over Marseille and the sea. The e-bikes made it easy and enjoyable to cover a lot of ground while still being able to stop, take photos, and soak in the atmosphere of this incredible city. Marseille is full of beautiful architecture, churches, beaches, and history around every corner, and this tour was the perfect introduction. To top it all off, enjoying a local beer after the tour was the perfect ending to a fantastic day. If you’re visiting Marseille and only have a day in port, I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Thank you, Jordan, for an unforgettable experience!

5.00Lovely bike ride through Marseille. Dutch speaking guide who guides you along all kinds of sights. Bikes are top and electric what you do need given the sometimes tough rises. But with these bikes no problem at all
Amazing! One of the best executions we’ve ever done!

5.00This was one of the highlights during our trip. The best excursion we have ever done. We booked the express route but decided to take the full route after the first couple spots because we were enjoying the tour so much. Cindy was amazing and very flexible. The whole family truly enjoyed it. I would highly recommend this bike excursion.
Fun and exciting tour

5.00This tour was a 10/10 experience. The tour guide was great and seeing the city on a bike was incredible. The electric motor on the bike is a huge help and made it easy going up some of the steep streets. My kids felt this was the best part of the trip.

5.00Great biking adventure with my family! The company promptly picked us up at our cruise port and about 15 min drive to the shop to get our bikes. Our guide Ava was fantastic, took us around the city and kept us safe while navigating the busy streets. There was my party of 6 and then 2 other people for total of 8. My party included me, my husband, two teens and my 74 and 81 year old parents. The bike shop brought us back to ship with plenty of time to board. We had a very memorable day!
