Side car adventure - Mary was lovely! And she was so nice to my dog Maya (even though Maya wasn’t too sure about the side car haha) still such a fun experience — and we’ve been wanting to for so long, thank you!

EBike experience in Monterey, CA - The ride was amazing. Noah was our guide and he could not have been better. He was funny, courteous, looked after all riders, and kept us on time. The scenes were amazing and we would use them again. Well worth the price.

Fun activity even for young families - Noah was an excellent tour guide. We were a family of four with a 4 year old and 7 year old, and he was very patient and friendly with our kids. Highly recommend for young families! Fun way to see the area.

17 miles bike ride Monterey - The pace was at our pace and the guide was very nice and informative. Valet Parking was free at the plaza which was a major plus.

What a great experience! ... - What a great experience! Mary took us along 17 mile drive with spectacular views of the coastline. The e-bikes provided were top notch - very comfortable and easy to pedal. Highly recommend this adventure especially if Mary is the guide.

Monterey Must Do For Active Families! - The Monterey 17-mile drive tour was awesome! Our whole family enjoyed it so much! Our tour guide was amazing and very informative. Next time we come back to the area we definitely want to try the Carmel tour. The shop itself was easy to find and close to all happening near Cannery Row. My 13 year old daughter was able to do the whole trip without any issues. My 10 year old daughter got to enjoy the scenic drive riding with me as it would've been too tiring for her to do solo. Every kid is different so be smart about it. We saw numerous seals, otters, deer, and of course those squirrels. The ride was about 2 1/2 hours but it went so quickly with our guide stopping at numerous points of interests and giving more details about the area. We've done a few sightseeing touristy things on our trip, but overall this has been the family favorite. Thanks so much for help making some core memories! Definitely worth the money!

Exceeded our Expectations ❤️❤️❤️ - I accidentally booked the Monterey location instead of Carmel. When we arrived at the wrong location they were so accommodating and had no issue changing the location for us. I was extremely nervous about the ride (I’ve had a couple of accidents), but they made me feel so comfortable. Taking me through all the bike options and finding one that was well suited (and extremely comfortable) for me. Our tour guide Isaiah was a true gentleman and gave my husband and I a fact filled (but not boring) tour of Carmel up to and past Pebble Beach. He was so patient and helpful. He knew so much about the entire area and really made our tour an unforgettable experience. He also takes great pictures which is a bonus and made sure I got to see some sea otters which I requested. I thought 2.5 hours would be too long, but it really flew by quickly and left us wanting to invest in an electric bike for back home. I can’t say enough great things about this business and Isaiah. My riding confidence is renewed and I look forward to coming back and doing the same tour with our daughter soon! And of course we will be requesting Isaiah as our guide. If you’re on the fence just do it. It was the highlight of our weekend and much better to experience the 17 mile drive via bike than car.
