Good all-rounder

5.00The wheels are initially adjusted to the size and a helmet is handed out. Afterwards you will be introduced to the use of the electric drive of mountain bikes. I for one am quite tall (1.98m), which delayed the selection of the helmet and the bike slightly. Then begins the beautiful tour through a national park and green parts of the city. Our group consisted of 10 people (about 26-36 years), which turned out to be a pleasant group size and made the trip pleasant. In between, breaks are made to impart local knowledge of the place/region/flora and fauna. We found this to be very helpful, humorous and informative. So we were able to classify what was seen well. There is a half-hour break to stay in Calanque Sormiou. As a small improvement suggestion, we only noticed the stability of the seat height adjustment. It has repeatedly adjusted due to the rough ride and had to be readjusted manually. Otherwise, it should be mentioned that sportswear facilitates mobility, since the tour is sporty. Water must be brought by yourself. Overall, a really great experience, which we definitely recommend if you like it sporty and want to experience Marseilles surroundings and nature in a different way.
Perfect exit...

5.00Perfectly organized outing. The bikes were in perfect condition. Watch out for people who lack balance there is quite a difference in level.
Exhausting and worth it

5.00We traveled through Marseille on bike, to the top of the Calanques. Three hours of pretty intense biking. The e-bikes made it doable. Louis was a great tour guide.
Great experience

5.00We loved our bike excursion to the Calanques. Martin was a great tour guide, and gave us lots of information about the area as we rode. The scenery was beautiful as we rode, and the Calanques were impressive. A great day!
Highly recommended

5.00Not fully electric bikes. You do have to pedal. Manu and Stephan were great. Helped us out when wife was struggling. We are in the 50+ age range and unsurprisingly, less fit than we thought. Great experience and wonderful views. You do get the chance to go for a swim. So, remember to take your swimming costume.
Super fun activity in a nice area!

5.00It was really super fun! It is tough with a 1 child on the back and 1 on the trailer bike. But our guide Vincent made it a super fun day. Don't book through booking.com! There you have to book mandatory for 3 adults. Then you pay 1 time too much if you want to go as a couple
Amazing must see experience.
