E bike rental

- Review from Viator
5.00E bike rental went really smooth, from being able to check in half hour early, to being shown how to operate the bike, to being shown bike path. Booked the 3 hour tour, completed it in about 2 hour 45 mins, only because we stopped at various look out points and beaches. Bike path is very well maintained and you only have to be cautious of people using trail for walking. E bike can be used in normal mode, meaning peddled on your own, or with peddle assist which is really helpful on some of the inclines. Beautiful views through out. So if you like nature and like taking pictures, this tour is for you. Be aware that bike can go pretty quick and to wear layers. Tour was completed in month of November a couple days after storm, and there was snow along bike path and some ice on bike path. Check weather before booking.
Highlight of our short Tahoe break

5.00Huge thanks to Vista Trail Bikes for this fantastic self-guided tour. 3-4hrs/half day rental was perfect for a short ride over and then scenic bike ride along the absolutely stunning East Shore Trail while having plenty of time to hop off our bikes to explore the beaches and coves on foot. The setup was perfect for everything we needed - helmets, locks, bungee, water with the ebike battery very useful for the inclines/hills along the way. Should be a relaxing activity for anyone active who is comfortable on a bike from commuting or occasional cycling. We really appreciate the detailed instructions and friendly advice from Vista, including flexibility after we called to explain we were stuck in traffic behind an accident and were running a little bit late. Would definitely recommend to friends and we'll look to do something like this again for any return trips to Tahoe.
Ride and See the Sights

5.00This was so much fun, and one of the favorite things we did in Lake Tahoe. My husband and I had a blast and it was a great way to see the beautiful sites. It is well worth the cost, the length of time is plenty, and the shop and staff we rented from were super friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend it!

Not worth it

2.00The scenery is beautiful, but the ride along Lake Tahoe is very short. Unfortunately, we had to return the bikes after a short time because both of them ran out of juice. And when fully juiced, the bikes are of very low quality. We asked for a refund but were told, "only the owner can give you a refund, but he's not here, and never picks up his phone."
Great solo ride

5.00These are pedal assist bikes so be prepared to work a little but the views and trail are worth it. The staff is excellent at prepping you for the ride, very knowledgeable. I did it solo and the used every drop of 4 hrs. Which was plenty of time out/pics/food/back. The weather was perfect.
Disappointing
Jenell B,,Sep 19, 2025
- Review from Tripadvisor
2.00My husband was given the wrong size bike. We were “trying out” e-bikes while hoping to enjoy the trail. His seat was all the way up and still too small for his large frame. He was given the same size bike I was given. The trail was very busy by mid-morning with strollers, kids on bikes, dog walkers, many landscapers. We rode half the time we planned to and gave up. The actual shoreline trail is short. We did an additional alternative route and were still done halfway through our reserved time. Decided it wasn’t worth it to continue. Disappointing.
