“Exploring Montreal by e-bike was a great way to get the lay of the land and become familiar with the city’s diverse and vibrant neighborhoods. Our tour was the same day as the Montreal Marathon which had closed many streets, but our guide did an amazing job of finding alternate routes to the various stops. We didn’t miss a thing!

Ride Montreal’s Plateau, Mile End, Little Italy, and Jean-Talon Market on a friendly three-hour bike tour with bagel samples.
“Our guide was so likable and personable that I feel bad writing this. I ascertained very little interesting information that I hadn’t read but worse, we road our first leg not having a clue of where we were and what we should be noticing. We road carefully and he was pretty clued into how people were doing but the only interactions really went on among him and the first three cyclists. The people on the tail end heard nothing and remained isolated the entire time.
