Read full reviewExcellent, excellent tour, with an incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide! Highly recommend if you want to see all of the Parisian landmarks up close with a tour guide who knows the history/architectural knowledge of each. The cheese/wine happy ending was delightful and a great reward after the ride! Thanks again to Adrian for a great tour...it truly exceeded my expectations and was the highlight of my time in Paris.
Super. Nicolas a été très bien surtout pour moi qui suis de Paris. Vélo parfait. Trajet très agréable
Amazing guide and scenery

Read full reviewThis tour will definitely fill an entire day and you will be exhausted. I’m glad we did it because it was really the best way to experience riding around like a local. It was a good mix of destinations and we enjoyed the market/picnic part. I wish we had more time at Versailles but that could easily fill a day alone. The only caution I would note is that if you take children, they should be older and experienced riders. Some members of our group had to drop out because the children had trouble. You are definitely in busy traffic for some parts. Our daughter did fine but she is a teen and has an e-bike of her own.

Read full reviewRenaud outfitted the group with great quality bikes and we were in our way, expertly threading the urban bike lanes, to the path along the Seine and then into a series of tree lined parks, gardens, forests and picturesque towns. The pacing of riding to the market, “facilities visits” and picnic stops was well calibrated, important for a 9 hour day. The planning nicely balanced the group cohesion while riding, and independence and self-pacing during the museum visits. Our guide pre-purchased tickets that smoothed our entry at the various sites. Renaud was informative about the history and culture of our tour, and his warm and friendly demeanor made it a very pleasant experience.
I went with a group of 6 and Renaud (our guide) was extremely kind and accommodating. We could not recommend this tour more!! 10/10 experience, it was a highlight of our trip.

The biking to Versailles was a memorable part of the experience. Top recommendation and many thanks. We enjoyed the stops and commentary along the way.

Read full reviewThis was an exceptional and outstanding experience. I had the very best time, the e-bike’s make hill climbing and the distance so doable. You do want to be a fairly adept biker, there’s a lot of negotiating traffic, pedestrians and cobblestone in places and you’ll be covering about 25 miles. The market, gardens and Versailles are so stunning, I would do this tour again and again.

Read full reviewOur guide Nicolas was wonderful. The meet-up was at a good location and made it easy to begin our adventure. We were able to purchase water for the day at a local grocery store, but I’d recommend bringing some with you. Nicolas was patient with our small group that needed a little time to acclimate to the e-bikes. I was concerned that riding a bike through crazy Paris traffic would be dangerous but we took a route that had good bike paths and much of the paths were off the roads.

Read full reviewWhat a day this was! Reno (I hope I spelled that correctly) had a very interesting day for us. This was my first time ever on an electric bike so that was a treat in itself lol. The tour included cycling to and from multiple locations. I was able to see parts of the city that I wouldn’t have on my regular tourist adventure. The highlight of the tour was being able to go into the market and picking out what I wanted for lunch as well as enjoying a picnic next to the water. This is indeed a full day tour so be prepared for that, but it is also enjoyable!

Read full reviewHands down one of the best tours I’ve ever booked and been on! I was super nervous due to the weather reports of thunderstorms but so happy we didn’t cancel! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the bikes, city and the route! He was also beyond prepared, with ponchos for us and the bikes, as well as a weather resistant picnic blanket for the lunch behind Versailles. The market to grab lunch was just amazing! True cultural experience in itself! There was plenty of time to walk the most important items in Versailles, and honestly we were ready to go by the 2hr mark. The bikes make it way less strenuous – you still have to pedal but there is a ton of help for hills and inclines. Your butt is gonna hurt at the end, but the sights, adventure, and overall experience are well worth it!!! If you enjoy bike riding through cities, do not miss this tour!
Loved the bike trip but it was a little week on the info for Versailles. The lunch was a fun idea but difficult to do with no utensils. Beautiful location for the lunch.

Read full responseDear Thomas, Our tour focuses on a long electric bike ride. We've deliberately kept our explanations to 3-5 minutes at each stop, so as not to overwhelm you with 10-15 minute monologues. But we're always open to questions and happy to talk to the small minority who want to know more. As for picnic utensils, we provide a blanket to sit on, a knife for cheese, paper napkins, cups and a corkscrew. Our customers are generally very satisfied with these little extras, and we sincerely regret that they didn't give you complete satisfaction. We also carry a wide range of equipment for repairing and securing bicycles. Space in our panniers is limited. But we'll take your comments into account in future developments.

Read full reviewExcellent experience. Our guide Nicholas was very good. The e-bikes make make this tour accessible to anyone. Once out of Paris, it is a very nice bike ride through St. Cloud national park, the small town of Marnes-la-Coquette, and then through a forest near Versailles. Picnic lunch on the grounds of Versailles next to the canals (after visiting a local fresh market) was very charming. Strolled the grounds of Le petit Trianon before spending a couple of hours at Versailles. A definite highlight of our trip to Paris. (We were lucky enough to have a warm, sunny day). Also note that the visit inside Versailles is not guided.
Nicola did a great job as a guide, and the trip itself quite relaxing, while my favourite spot in Versailles is the palace gardens.

Read full reviewThe trip was a wonderful adventure. The bikes were top notch hybrids that handle street to muddy trails extremely well. It has rained A LOT this Spring in Paris. It's a long day and you definitely might want to be somewhat ‘bike seat’ ready lol. Renault was terrific guiding a group of 14 of us through Paris streets, then along woodsy trails to our various Versailles destinations. The market at Versailles was gorgeous, huge, crowded and happy where many of us found food for our picnic. I loved the day.

The weather was NOT good but we were given rain gear, recc for an indoor lunch and an option to take the train back to starting point but we all decided to bike back. It was a fun adventure!!! Would highly recommend.

Read full reviewBeen to Versailles 30 years ago. Taking an E-Bike tour from Paris center to Versailles is a totally different experience. First, the E-Bike turbo boosts your pedaling so going uphill is a breeze. Riding thru the city gave a different perspective on Paris living. Parts of the ride go thru a forest which the kids loved. Buying some picnic supplies on the way, we ate in one of the expansive parks in Versailles. Never would have ventured this far from palace without E-Bike. Visited the outer palaces (Trianon) that would normally be too far. Finally, entered the main palace which was the envy for all of Europe Bikes were much better quality than the city E-Bike. Even without power, the gears are smooth and with shock absorbers One thing to watch - I went to wrong meetup location initially as I looked at address on confirmation email. Make sure you check for the meetup address
