What to Expect on Your Self-Guided eBike Tour
Lead your own adventure! Whether you’re a pro cyclist or this is your first eBike rental, you have the chance to explore Asheville’s stunning sites at your own pace. This self-guided tour comes with a mapped route that takes you through quiet streets with gentle right turns—but feel free to chart your own path and explore Asheville as you please for the duration of the tour. Plus, with our leisurely four-hour and eight-hour options, you can take your time at the stops along the way. Our Self-Guided eBike Tour is the best of both worlds: our expertise of all things Asheville and your love for exploring beautiful places on your own terms.
During this tour, you will not be accompanied by a tour guide. Make sure to stay safe by riding single file, staying to the right at all times, obeying traffic signals, and signaling when turning. While Asheville is known for its exciting brewery scene, we recommend that you stick to one or two beers for the best experience on this tour.
Before your ride, you’ll get an email/text notification containing any final must-know details. Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours in advance. We’ll be riding rain or shine—if the weather is exceptionally inclement, we will contact you about alternate arrangements.
