Calanques E-Bike Tour - They do a very good job of showing you the National Park. Took us to a gorgeous first lookout just to find out there was a better one later on. They make sure everyone is well looked after with one guide in the front, one in back and one in middle. Was more challenging than anticipated, but if you enjoy biking and exploring you’ll love the tour.

Alternative and great experience - Fantastic experience to visit the calanques in a more alternative and different way than the usual cruises. Frank, the guide, is very knowledgeable both in his explanations of the places and in his explanations of the ebikes. The ebikes are super and easy to use, just listen to Frank and you don't struggle at all. Highly recommended experience!

Visit a fantastic place in France! - The first great signs were prompt communication after purchase and the great amount of detailed info on their website. Lots of nice detailed info on how to get to starting point. Email 48 hours before tour was nice as well. Frank on the day of tour promptly fit everyone with bikes and after a brief explanation we were off. I had ridden mountain bikes with rapid fire shifters so I was fairly familiar with the idea. Ebikes are the bomb. If you are well enough to handle a 45 min workout you will be fine on the uphills. Some downhill parts might scare those not familiar with any mountain biking experience, but Frank was understanding of all levels. The views are so very striking and really not possible unless you bike or hike there. I was so pleased that we were able to see this fab place and I would totally recommend this experience to anyone wanting to see the Calanques!!! Was a highlight of our time in Marsaille and this a spectacular place in France to see. And makes me totally consider buying an ebike or doing other ebike excursions. And fyi I am almost 50, healthy-ish woman who enjoys beer and cheesesteaks!

Great experience - Top bikes, friendly guides. Just the group was too big (18, two guides). Duration of the tour was perfect for us. We took the shuttle boot back to Marseille Vieux port which was a perfect end to our tour.

A perfect trip with this A+ company and fantastic guides. - Outstanding bike tour with incredible and conscientious tour guides. We did the tour with our 11 and 12 year olds who were the only children in the group. One of the two guides paid them extra special attention, guiding them through the electric bikes and giving helpful gear and shifting instruction throughout. It was our first experience on electric bikes and it could not have been more positive. The only thing to note: I feel like this may not be the best trip for very experienced riders. There is some mountainous terrain, plus some city riding, and there were very many stops by the guides to explain the upcoming partion of the ride, what to be aware of, and bike recommendations. Again, this was a perfect trip for us, but if I were alone, I would have wished for less stopping.

Amazing excursion - We had a great day. Our cruise ship docked at marseille and I wanted to have a challenging active excursion that was not far from the port. This hit all the boxes. Our guide was patient and explained how to use the bike and how to adjust it based on the different terrain. We got to see the calanques from a unique perspective which was stunning. Recommended for older teens/ adults who feel comfortable on a bike and comfortable riding through city streets sharing the road with cars as well as riding down bumpy rocky terrain with steep climbs and steep descents with sharp turns.
