Fabulous experience. Informative and helpful guides. Just the right amount of cycling.
Only reason we haven’t given a 5* review is we can’t see why we had to walk the bridge. There was virtually no traffic. When we did the ride it would have been safe to ride the bridge. If it had been busy, different matter. If it was a safety matter why allowed to cycle through a busy pedestrian area.

Great views and scenery. If you’re not a cyclist or haven’t ridden an e-bike before probably not for you.

Amazing guide, very knowledgeable. Fun ride on bikes and a great experience. Shame we had a few mixed abilities in our group and few people kept getting lost of struggling with bike slowed group down- I feel the advert should state bikes are very heavy and need to be confident at riding in public spaces and on road. But in all a very good experience.

Our E-bike cycling tour was extremely informative and a great way to sightsee. We were on a cruise and found this at the very last minute via the Vikings Adventure website. Ekel our guide was knowledge and great with the group. We appreciated his patience, as most of us were not familiar with e-bikes. I highly recommend you do this, it's a fantastic way to cover a lot of places in a small amount of time!

The guide was very friendly and the bikes were great fun, we saw some interesting sights and the weather was amazing. Would have liked more time at the Rising Tide sculpture.

Really great idea if you want to see the area, our guide was awesome, made stops to tell us about the history. We covered a really big area which we would’ve struggled to do walking. Can’t recommend enough. Plus it’s so safe for cyclist when there

We had an absolute blast on this tour, partially as it was out 1st time any of us had been on an e-bike. We covered plenty of ground and got off the bikes without breaking a sweat - or even feeling like we had just ridden a bike. The tour is informative and gave you an impression of the overall area. The guide was friendly etc. the roads are perfectly safe and the bikes are of good quality / safe etc. We were on a cruise ship, so we did the e-bike tour am with Viking and their ride tour pm. They are located together. We had a day that the family will always remember.
