Loved e-biking on the paths going up to the Fall. Easy riding and a view of the river at times. It was an easy experience going up and down from the fall and we got great pictures. Our guide was exceptional! We had a beer tasting at the end and some delicious snacks!
Truly enjoyed our tour guide, Cas. She was very knowledgeable and patient. We appreciated how how she made our trip most memorable. Would highly recommend this excursion to fellow bike riders.
We thoroughly enjoyed our ebike tour with Jacob. He was very informative and provided interesting details about Quebec and the Montmorency Falls. We would recommend this trip for anyone who wants to experience an ebike ride through the city and to the falls. Stops along the way provide additional insight and break if needed. The brewery and appetizers at the end were unique and we really enjoyed them. Merci beaucoup!!
Nice bikes , great tour guide , took the time to show lots of details about the history of the area and current sights worth seeing , Jakob was fantastic host and we enjoyed his company and conversations about many topics historical and current events taking place around Quebec City . Highly recommend the tour and easy to ride the bikes and if you want low effort and longer journey’s this the place to go.
awesome experience. John was a great guide. First time on eBike for my wife and I. He gave great instructions and made us feel comfortable as first timers. The bikes were easy to use. Small group made it easy to stay together. All on dedicated bike paths and flat. very safe. we took a nice detour to a beach on the river for fresh strawberries and cheese. The falls were beatiful. Took the cable car to the top( included) and up close view of falls walking across suspension bridge and down the nearby stairs. The flight of beers at the microbrew at the end of tour was a great way to finish a perfect tour. Highly recommend.

The bikes were great and in good condition. Our guide (forgot his name from Mexico), was very knowledgeable about the area and made the trip enjoyable. The drink and food tasting at the end was a a good way to end the day.

Great guide, good information and history on the sreai
We had visited Montmorency Falls the day before (very briefly with our large group tour) so were initially concerned that this would be a wasted trip. I’m pleased to say that it was not, and not by a long shot! The guide (I forget his name but a gentleman in his late 50s to early 60s who is a bike enthusiast and a just a tiny but crazy — in a good way) made the trip amazing. He is a born and bred Québécois who is absolutely in love with his province and city and it shows. The trip on the e-bikes was so informative and full of little details about the city, both recent and historic and full of his local flavor. On the way out to the falls we stopped a number of times to look at the local rivers, parks, and get a better feel for the land. The bikes were easy to use and he set a reasonable pace. Once reaching the falls, we took the gondola up, and then had a walking tour across the falls and then down the stairs where we got a bit damp. The ride back was followed by a small snack and beer tasting at the beer garden next door. This was a highly enjoyable experience and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in a nice bike ride and wants to hear a local with character give their view on this wonderful city and countryside.
A great biking tour. We had a great guide, a good itinerary with interesting sites and good quality e-bikes. Finished off the lovely craft beer and tasty snacks.
We wanted to see the Montmorency Falls, so what better way to do that than take an e-bike tour of the city including the Falls! Mark, our guide, was friendly & helpful. He got us all set up with helmets, bikes and made sure we were all at ease with our bikes before taking off on our adventure. Mark was very knowledgeable about the city, and very good at pointing out interesting places along the way. Our time at the falls was amazing and he gave us a lot of info about them as we waited for the cable car and walked around at the top. The trip back went smoothly and we all enjoyed tasting some local craft beers at the micro brewery. Perfect day with a great guide! It was a pleasure to spend the day with someone who truly loves his city! Thanks again, Mark!
