Hole in the Rock & Tempe Lake E-Bike Tour - 2 Hours
Description
We are celebrating our 20th anniversary providing tours! We are a well run family owned business and we can't wait to meet you. Through the first portion of our tour, the bike path nestles up to golf courses, parks, frisbee golf courses and lakes. Approaching Tempe Town Lake we ride under tunnel underpasses and enjoy a some gradual inclines and declines. We'll pass the Tempe Marina and see the boats as we ride towards Papago Park. The scenery makes a dramatic shift to an iconic desert landscape as we enter Papago Park. We usually see road runners (birds) on this portion of the tour. The smooth concrete bike path meanders through a unique frisbee golf course that is rocky with maroon colors. Ahead on a hill top, we see an on oddly placed pyramid; the tomb of George W.P. Hunt, Arizona's first Governor. Then we make our way to The Hole in the Rock. Your group will hop off your bikes and leave them with the tour guide and walk about 5 minutes up the trail to the look out point.

Allie, our tour guide, was very informative and knowledgeable about the history of Scottsdale and the vegetation we saw around us. She was so friendly. I really appreciated her patience in giving us time to acclimate to our bikes. Safety was her priority which made us feel very at ease during our ride. The view from the hole in the rock was breathtaking! The breeze was welcomed, too! Thank you, Allie, for a top notch experience!
Beautiful ride and Jonathan was an expert guide with so much knowledge! Easy ride and lots of beautiful scenery
Even in extreme heat, it was enjoyable
Jonathan was very knowledgeable and friendly. He’s a local who was able to explain the development and history of the area. It was a blistering hot morning, but he was very mindful of how everyone was getting along; offering us extra water and stops in the shade as needed. 10/10 recommend!
Me and my group had never rode e bikes before but our tour guide made the ride fun and easy. Weather was perfect for us and the view at the end was awesome.
We had a great tour! Learned so much about the city and fun facts!

This was the start of our Arizona Trip, we had John as our tour guide! He was fantastic made you feel very comfortable on the E-bike, trails were beautiful and easy for any rider. While riding John’s commentary of the ride was great, whether he was giving facts or just talking about the culture of Arizona. Would definitely book again for another tour! Thanks John!!!
You don't have to be a very proficient at riding a bike. Provides some time to get acclimated to the e-bike. Ride was very scenic and informative.
