Excellent service and great experience at Lakeside Eco Sports. The guided app tour was so easy to use and the scenery was beautiful. Gareth, Pam and the team were awesome. Was our first time on an e-bike and Will definitely not be our last! Super fun day.

A nice bike ride, with very good e-bikes, so for everyone to do fine! Good guides, who also ensure safe cycling through the city and the excursion to the beekeeping with lunch and wine tasting was totally top! What a delicious products we have tasted! In short: recommend thick!

We had a perfect sunny day -despite some wildfire smoke - and not so much traffic so we could get a good speed with the ebikes. The live route on my phone made it easy to focus on the views, food and wine tastings - we'd have gotten lost without it. The bikes were like new and service was awesome.
We’re so glad you caught a sunny day out, even with a bit of smoke in the air. It’s wonderful to hear that the e-bikes gave you the chance to relax, pick up some speed, and really enjoy the scenery without worrying about navigation. The app is definitely a game changer for keeping the focus on views, tastings, and fun along the way. Thanks so much for sharing your experience—we’d love to welcome you back for another ride!
This was such an amazing adventure! The E-bikes were fun, and made the bike ride effortless. The scenery was beautiful, the bee tastings were tasty, and the staff were warm, professional, and knowledgeable. A great way to spend 4 hours seeing some beautiful views in Kelwona.

Very enjoyable. A good mix of relaxing at the winery, learning all about bees and honey, a delicious lunch, and a fun but relatively easy bike ride. E bikes are so fun and make me never want to use a regular bike again!
Thank you so very much for your awesome review Shella. Our E-Bike Bee Tour holds a special place in our hearts, we love to create awareness to these super important insects. Yes, riding a regular bike is definitely tough after experiencing the fun of riding an e-bike! We hope to see you for another ride with us sometime!
The ride on the way up to Meadow Vista is stunning with gorgeous scenery and homes. Once there, the staff were very friendly, the food was great and the wine tasting and audio tours were both too notch.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review. We absolutely love this product, and Bees! We are so pleased you enjoyed the experience at Meadow Vista and the stunning Kelowna landscapes. We hope to see you again for another ride sometime!
The trip was really fun. It's a beautiful ride and the ebike was essential. Not sure we would have gotten there on normal bikes. That being said there is some effort required but it was still a blast. You bike all the way to meadow vista and back to the starting point near the lake. You use a phone app as the gps navigation which was ok overall, but not Google maps.
Thanks so much for your great review Neal. Definitely need e-bikes for the ride, we are pleased they removed a lot of the effort! Hope to see you again for another ride!
