Highly Enjoyable Bike Tour - I'm a very experienced mountain biker, but this was my first ride using an e-bike. My wife doesn't ride much, does not ride off road and had never ridden an e-bike before.
I had corresponded via e-mail with Stelios before we reached Crete and he'd answered all my questions and put my mind at ease.
Ride was to start at 9am, so got there about 15 minutes before that to get bikes, helmets and water sorted out. Michailis (sorry for probable incorrect spelling) was our guide and he did all the sorting out. The bikes (Cube) and helmets (Specialized) were in good condition.
7 in our group, plus guide. Mixed abilities. Guide very knowledgeable and stopped at various points to brief us. Answered all questions. Also made sure we always had sufficient water.
Most riding was either on quiet tarmac roads or dirt roads. No singletrack. No challenges for an experienced rider, the inexperienced riders coped without incident. Did not encounter much traffic and vehicles were never a problem. The scenery was great throughout. Some nice, fast descents, which you were encouraged to ride at your own pace. The e-bikes made short work of the uphills and everyone was able to get up them without difficulty. You do still have to pedal, but the bikes do all the hard work.
Cafe stop in small village was nice.
4 hours elapsed time, with around 2 1/2 hours of actual ride time. So, most of the ride completed before the highest temperatures of the day.
For me, this was the highlight of our week in Crete. My wife also really enjoyed - and now wants an e-bike. So, this could prove to be a very expensive trip!

Our holiday highlight - We were thrilled with the guided e-bike tour. Michailis led us, flatland bikers, safely over paved and unpaved roads. In addition to information about the country and its people and great views, there was also delicious food along the way. The highlight was the descent to Malia with a great view of the coast and the blue sea. It was a great day and absolutely recommended for anyone who likes to be active on holiday and loves different perspectives. We'll be back next time.

Beautiful, cool bike ride with delicious Greek brunch in a small village - Super nice bike tour with a delicious Greek brunch in a small village and a visit to a cave. Very cool with off-road parts and heights that we cycled. The guide told many fun facts and took pictures of everyone while cycling, very nice!

Super fun, educational and with some effort - date is wrong, it was in September.
It was a super fun tour through nice villages on the island. The guide was friendly and told fun and interesting stories about the island. The bikes were very good. I thought the tour was quite pricey, but it was worth it. gr.

Awesome bike tour - We were a group of 11 people and the tour was perfect for everyone. It was fun, and a bit challenging and the break in the local coffee in a small village was just a highlight. We really enjoy the ride with our guide, who was telling us a lots interesting stories during the way. Everything was perfect, the bikes were new and the service was very helpful. We warmly recommend this tour, you will really enjoy it.

Amazing Cretan Bike Ride - Our bike tour was amazing! We appreciated many things on our trip:
-The views were spectacular
- Mihalis knew the area so well and gave us interesting stories and facts (and fables!) about the area. He even took us by his Olive Trees and told us about how olive oil is made
- the bikes were in great condition, they really helped, but we had to put work into the bike ride!
- our highlight was the coffee stop in a small village. There were a few villagers there with hearty Kalimeras!! for our tour group, and we snacked on olives, feta, bread and watermelon as we sipped coffee and learned more about the people in our group.
- the ride through olive groves while overlooking the sea was spectacular and we recommend this tour highly

Catastrophic - Catastrophic!
We exchanged emails to reserve our bikes, we were told 100 euros if we came to pick up the bikes directly from their premises (far from the center).
When we get there, we are told 140 euros ! 40% increase!
No way... We came back our flat.
