Stunning views of Nice, Villefranche and beyond - We visited the Mobil board office on Rue Halévy to see the bikes and talk to the staff who were very helpful. Booking was straightforward and we managed to book for the next day. Loric, our guide, was very helpful on the day. The electric bikes took a little getting used to but he was very patient. He showed us many sights along the way to Villefranche and was very informative. The cycling route was safe-a lot of it was on cycle paths, and we always kept together. A particular highlight was cycling uphill to viewing points above Villefranche and Nice. We would never have done this on regular bikes in the heat! The electric bikes were amazing at getting us up to see stunning views. An exceptional experience. Thankyou Loric (aka Lolo)

Fun way to see Nice & Villefranche sur Mer - Wonderful experience on this tour! One quickly gets around Nice, Castle Hill and onto Villefranche! John was a fun and wonderful guide! Provided history and context to our ride. He was appropriately concerned when a rider was having trouble! This is not a tour for someone afraid of riding on streets with cars!

Tour De Nice on E-bikes. - Epic bike ride with our guide Owen! This ride blew away my preconceived notions about a casual bike ride along the Promenade. We travelled high and low and all the way to Ville France. The journey took us on protected bike lanes as well as on city streets with traffic. We always felt safe and the Nice drivers are used to sharing the road with bikes. That said , if you’re not an experienced bike rider-especially on an e bike, I would pause and perhaps select a different tour. The uphill's can be steep and windy and the downhills can get a little fast if you don’t know how to feather the brakes. All in all a fantastic 3 hours and would not hesitate to book again.

The tour was very good.... - The tour was very good. Fantastic views of Nice, Villefranche and Cap Ferrat. We had 30 minutes to look around Villefranche. I was disappointed though that I didn't receive the video that was taken during the tour because I don't have an iPhone and despite providing my e-mail.
