Great bikes and a... - Great bikes and a wonderful way to see the park. The carriage roads are easy to ride and the e-bikes make the hills manageable for everyone. The staff gave a great orientation so even if you are new to e-bikes they will help you with all the adjustments. They provided maps, a bottle of water and answered all our questions about the park. Highly recommended this.

Great experience - Super communicative when they realized an error in the booking, and since they were late with the bike, allowed me extra time on the bike. Good instruction from Wilson on the bikes, and knowledgeable and handy with the route to take on the carriage roads.

A beautiful way to see Acadia - A beautiful way to see Acadia. I would highly recommend it. The pedal assist bikes are truly easy to get the hang of - you will definitely still get exercise but it will be a lot easier getting around. Just be careful of the charge running out - it depends on the weight of the person and the distance you go. It is enough to do a full loop of the park. If you are good with a map, you don't need a guide. The carriage roads are so fun.

Great bikes, staff and super fun experience! - For our first ebike rental, we were very happy with the experience and with Island Time. We were given good instruction and a very detailed map of the park and Carriage Roads. The bikes were comfortable with padded seats and very easy to operate. They came with cell phone holder and a large pannier bag on the back which was so handy to store our water, snacks and jacket. I highly recommend Island Time to anyone looking to rent an ebike in Bar Harbor.

Fantastic family activity with an amazing company. - Bikes were easy to understand and ride. It was our first time and we rode 30 miles through Arcadia National Park with no issues. Self guided was the way to go, Ride as much as we wanted stop and take pictures we wanted too. Was able to ride at our own pace. We seen 3/4 of the park using the carriage roads. They were wide and stable pathways for riding. October was beautiful with the fall colors and perfect weather!!

Beautiful views & great bike rental company - Overall a great day with beautiful views and really nice people. The bikes were good, but the seats could have been more padded and larger. The map and directions within the park were very confusing, but we found our way. Recommend better directions given up front to show the best path to take with, e.g. bear right at first stop, then left, etc. The owner warned us about the confusing trail markers and, we agree, the map seemed backwards at times. Took us approx. 4 hours to go 25 miles.
