The E Bike tour with cruise port pickup was one of the highlights of our 7 day cruise. Eva was our guide and she was funny, insightful, and accommodating. The pickup from the port was as good you can expect with a non cruise itinerary. A short walk from the cruise and the driver was there it also included a ride back to the ship. This was one of the reason we selected this since tour. Some tours meeting points can be 20 min - 30 mins away from the port and we didn't want to have to deal with a taxi and logistics for that. The tour! The tour was beautiful and amazing. However, if you haven't biked in a while it will be some Scary moments. Keep in mind you will be biking up and down hills and through traffic. The bikes are not the E Bike you may be use to that has a throttle were you can spead up the bike without peddling. It's peddle assist and the electric power only kicks in when you paddle. This helps, but you will have to peddle and some points it can be a challenge. Nothing to bad, but just keep this in mind. Overall a nice experience especially if you are informed with some of the tips mentioned.
The e-bike tour was the best way to see Marseille, we had so much fun. Thank you Ava! We had a blast!
Great way to see the city, but it is challenging navigating the roads, hills, and traffic. Some roads had designated bike lanes, but others did not. Unfortunately it was very windy making the ride difficult. Our guide often was very far ahead of us (group of 4). We seemed to go down side streets and therefore missed some of the beautiful scenery. Also it should have been timed so that after that crazy trek to the top to the bascillica, we could go in. It had only certain times to enter. Really wanted to see it. When we returned to the shop we were told the shuttle to take us back wouldn't be available for 2 hours. They did get us an Uber to take us back to the port.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback. Please note that the Basilica’s opening hours and access are beyond our control, as are weather conditions such as strong wind on the day of your tour. Our route is designed to balance safety, traffic conditions, and key viewpoints. We are also unsure how you concluded that you missed “more beautiful scenery,” as the tour already includes the main highlights. Regarding your return, the shuttle delay was communicated, and in order to meet your request to return immediately to the port, we arranged and covered an Uber for you. We will, however, review the guide’s pacing to ensure the group stays closer together. Best regards, The Fada Bike Team
Locals know how to navigate around bike riders. Guides are friendly. Easy pick up from the cruise terminal.
Tour was cancelled due to rain. Which was too bad b/c we were waiting at the pick up zone. Would have been nice if we’d been informed earlier.
Hello, we're sorry we only notified you at the last minute. We were waiting to see if a break in the weather would occur during the predicted rain, but it didn't. However, I admit we should have informed you earlier about the possibility of cancellation. If you ever return to Marseille, please don't hesitate to contact us again; we'd be happy to offer you the tour free of charge.
This was the best way to experience Marseille. It felt as if we visited a friend who invited us to stay and she showed us the city. The private tour is so intimate and so worth it.
We had a wonderful time and learned so much from Raphael our guide. It was a perfect way to see the city
Rapheal is very good yes. Thank you
