5.00Was a very enjoyable ride. Dan was our guide and made sure we were all comfortable before we left, regularly checked in during the ride and shared a lot of information of the sites along the way. Enjoyed riding through town and especially enjoyed the experience along the River. Thanks for being a great guide Dan!!

5.00We had an incredible time on our guided e-bike tour with Wheel Fun Rentals in Bend! Our guide, Dan, was outstanding — extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. He took the time to explain the local scenery, pointed out interesting sights, and made sure we understood the rules of the road and how to properly operate the e-bikes. The ride lasted 2 hours and 30 minutes and covered 12.66 miles, and it was the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. The views along the river were absolutely fantastic — a highlight of the ride — and the route through town was splendid, offering a great mix of nature and urban charm. We truly appreciated the effort and expertise Dan brought to the experience. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bend who wants a fun, scenic, and informative ride!
Wonderful
