Wonderful bike tour!! - Wonderful experience and a fantastic way to see parts of Paris you won’t see on a hop on hop off tour. It was also a great way to learn more about french history regarding the Palace of Varsailles. 5 star experience.

Beautiful and stress-free ebike ride to and around Versailles - Renault was very responsive to questions even weeks before the tour and so friendly and informative on the tour itself. He gave very clear instructions about where to meet and showed up early. The size of the group was quite reasonable - 5 adults. Renault gave us enough information ahead of time about biking rules of the road in Paris and outside the city so we could feel confident as first time riders there, but he didn’t baby us or dress us in neon outfits as has been the case for many other urban bike tours we’ve taken. When one of our group’s bikes had squeaky brakes, he thoughtfully swapped out her bike for another he had stashed along the route - the whole thing took less than 10 minutes and was at a natural view point. I was impressed with Renault’s planning and easy manner.

Amazing experience - We had fabulous day. Renaud was a wonderful guide and Paris is a truly bicycle-friendly city with bike paths everywhere, We felt extremely safe during the brief portion of the ride spent navigating out of the city. The bicycles are good quality, well-maintained and have panniers for ample storage. My bicycle developed an annoying squeak and Renaud was able to provide a speedy replacement as he has spares available along the way - such great service! The ride through St Cloud, the forest, Marnes, and extensive lands around Versailles was absolutely gorgeous. Being able to see the modern-day town of Versailles, and visit the market to choose our lunch with a picnic along the Grand Canal all made this so much more than a “visit a palace” experience. We really can’t say enough about this day and how much we enjoyed Renaud, His patience, kindness and knowledge made this an above and beyond, epic adventure.

Fabulous Family Adventure - Thanks to Reno, a wonderful & experienced guide, my daughter, granddaughter and I had a fabulous e-bike adventure riding from Paris to Versailles. Once you get out of Paris, the ride is mostly on toe paths, cobblestones & dirt paths. So expect a lot of bumpy terrain. But this trip is thoroughly organized & the day well-planned. And Reno gave us lots of good tips along the way. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Day Paris to Versailles - Renault our guide led us on wonderful journey through parts of Paris into the parkland, forests and small towns leading into Versailles. The weather was perfect, little chilly to start the day, so dress appropriately to the weather. Saddle bags are provided for storage. Group of 9 with varying ages from teens to late 70’s. Even though the bikes are electric (pedal assist) you need to be in decent shape and able to exert some energy as by the end of the day you’ll feel it! The cobble stone can be a bit tricky for a novice rider. A great day of adventure and would highly recommend. The only downside is that you don’t ride the bikes back to Paris ( The ride is the best part of the day).

Better than the palace itself! - This bike tour was incredible and a highlight of our time in Paris! The scenic bike tour was more enjoyable than the palace itself. Renaud is a great guide. The excursion includes the ebike tour, tickets to the Palace of Versailles and the Petit Trianon, and a one-way train ticket back to Paris. Save your stomach for the delicious foods at the Notre Dame market, where you’ll pick up food for lunch to enjoy picnic style at the gardens of Versailles. Renaud provides a blanket, but pack your own disposable cutlery/plates for added comfort. This activity definitely takes the whole day from start to finish and you will be tired at the end of the day, but it was worth every penny.

Fabulous family day out!! - What a fabulous experience! Me, my husband and our 2 teenage sons had a great day exploring areas of Paris and Versailles that we wouldn't have been able to find ourselves.
Our guide Renault was both friendly and informative. The electrical bikes were really well maintained and easy to use with Renaulds expert guidance! I highly recommend this activity for anyone who wants to experience different areas of Paris and have some fun!

Amazing tour from Paris to Versailles on E-bike - Renault was a good & patient tour/e-bike guide. We rode on comfy E-Bikes from Paris to Versailles & then he showed me around a bit before leaving me alone to tour the Palace. After that he suggested an amazing creperie before we went to see gardens nearby. Also, thanks to Renault for doing this tour even though I was the only one.
