Great Experience - Our tour was in October. We started our tour at Portland castle that we got to see at the end of the tour. The shuttle bus that we took at the port only took a few minutes to get to Portland Castle which was the firat stop. Our tour guide, Peter and is wife Michelle were very knowledgeable of the area, but most of all they were caring and succeeded in helping us feel mat home in a foreign land. I'm a very healthy 86-year-old and a little after the first half of the tour my wife and I felt a little tired and Michelle offered to take us in her car to the rest of the stops (two more). The pub or small restaurant had tasty local food and excellent service. The views were stunning, and the rock quarry art was particularly interesting. Peter ushered us into a quaint church building where we were the only tour group there. I even had my picture taken from the pulpit! Pebble beach may not look like much in pictures, but the pebbles are bigger that you might think, and the expanse of the beach and the view is unique. If you have never used an electric bike, Peter will give an introduction to e bikes and let you practice. I am 86 years old and had never ridden an e-bike, but I found it was not that difficult. If you want an active tour with interesting sites to visit and excellent guides, then this bike tour is for you.

Fun adventure - Loved this activity! I was a little nervous since I don’t spend a lot of time biking and hills are always a challenge for me. These were quality e-bikes and you get started on top of the hill so there are only some ups and one big downhill. Nothing the bike can’t handle. Peter and Michelle are awesome guides and do a good job assessing the ability level of the group. Lunch stop food was awesome, views amazing, quirky stops, and cool beach. Would love to do another biking adventure with Peter and Michelle. Highlight of our trip so far.

A wonderful way to see the sights of Portland! - My husband and I would 100% recommend this tour!! So fun and Michelle and Peter were awesome. Sooo much better than sitting on a bus looking out the window! The views were beautiful!! We felt very safe and cared for… we are 65 and we’re a little concerned about of our biking abilities… but it all went so well! Michelle took some great pictures of all us and shared them with us at the end of our trip. They treated us to a great lunch by the shore and bought us a tasty drink at a pub at the end of our tour. So fun… you should definitely take this excursion!

Highly recommend! - Amazing guides. Michelle and Peter were very knowledgeable about the area. They were very kind and considerate of our needs. The last time i rode A bike was 10 years ago so i was Quite rusty. But Michelle and Peter made sure we rode at a comfortable pace. Safety was their #1 concern. They offered snacks and water throughout the ride and we were able to stop for a delicious lunch. Although the day was cloudy, the views were still breathtaking. Michelle and Peter were very patient. Michelle even took a lot of pictures on her phone and we were able to transfer it to ours. Highly recommend this tour.

This was far and away the best excursion I’ve ever booked with Trip Advisor. Exceeded my expectations from start to end - The best excursion I ever booked on Trip Advisor. The husband-wife team who own the bikes thoughtfully took care of every detail ensuring I had the best experience.

Amazing views by E-Bike! - This E-Bike Tour is a must for cruise ship passengers that dock in Portland! Peter and Michelle are amazing hosts who are personable, kind, well organized, very experienced tour guides and are expert cyclists. Your safety is their priority! They will take you on a unique journey around Portland with stunning views, interesting historical places and they even treat you to a tea break and lunch break at local eating spots. Many of the sites Michelle and Peter take you to are not likely to be seen on a typical cruise ship shore excursion. The pace and terrain is comfortable and is suitable for all ages. Peter's and Michelle's knowledge of the area and history add interest to this trek. Communication from booking to finding the starting place was accurate, courteous and professional from first contact. My adult children and spouse loved this adventure and we will take part again if we are ever back in Portland. If you enjoy biking, the outdoors and a unique experience this is the excursion for you! PS - there is an option to visit a local pub at the end of the trip if one is so inclined!

What a great way to see the sights of Portland, England!! Way better than a bus tour!! - Peter and Michelle were really great! This was our favorite outing on our 10 day cruise. They were fun, knowledgeable and so kind. The bikes were great and although we are 65 and just average bike riders we were completely comfortable on this trip. They made sure that we were as safe as possible at all times and showed us spectacular sights of Portland. They treated us to lunch at a fun seaside restaurant… my cranberry Brie sandwich was awesome … and they treated us at an English Pub at the end of our journey. Michelle was so great about documenting our journey with great pictures that she shared with us at the end of the trip for no addltional charge. I would highly recommend taking this trip… we loved it! Wish I could leave a few pictures of our trip… but I guess I am not techie enough to figure it out.

BOOK THIS TOUR!! It's a MUST! - If you want to make the most of your time in Portland - book THIS tour!! Peter & Michelle are LOVELY tour guides, they will take super good care of you and you will absolutely LOVE this tour. My husband & I haven't been on bikes in DECADES and yet we felt 100% comfortable riding these bikes! Peter sends meet up/pick up instructions 1-2 days in advance of the tour, which were 100% spot on BTW (we came on a cruise ship). They spend time fitting helmets, letting you get used to the bikes, make sure the bikes fit "just right" for your size, etc. You will see more of Portland via this E-Bike Tour than any other tour option out there!! Lots of laughs, lots of sites to see & lots & lots of photos are taken on your behalf and then given to you at the end of your journey. You will feel 100% rejuvenated & 100% "alive" on this tour & 100% safe!! There is a nice lunch served (you get to choose your meal), plenty of "breaks" in between sites, we saw things "off the radar", there's no rushing, they provide water bottles, sunscreen, etc. (the things you don't think to bring!), and it's a WONDERFUL tour! You end at a local pub for a soft drink, beer or cider, but not before having the opportunity to see one of the most beautiful rock beaches EVER! WHAT A FANTASTIC TOUR!!!! If we ever go back to Portland, we most certainly will do this again!!! Many thanks, Peter & Michelle

No bus - This was probably the best excursion we did in Europe. We were never on e-bikes before so we gave it a go. What a beautiful day, it’s easy and safe. We saw more than any bus tour could give you. Peter and Michelle were so nice and friendly and enthusiastic with this trip. If you can ride a bike, go and take this trip.
