Some cities are best seen from a car window. Portland, Maine is not one of them. On this fully private e-bike tour, it's just your group, a local guide, and five hours of spectacular coastal scenery — with a Maine lobster roll along the way. Ride through the Old Port's cobblestone waterfront and fishing piers. Climb to Fort Allen Park for sweeping Casco Bay views. Cruise the Eastern Promenade before crossing to South Portland to walk the breakwater to Bug Light, designed by the architect of the U.S. Capitol dome. Continue to Spring Point Ledge — the only lighthouse of its kind you can reach on foot — then Portland Head Light, commissioned by George Washington in 1791. Finish on the Western Promenade, a hidden hilltop park with views to the White Mountains that most visitors never find. Lunch is a fresh Maine lobster roll at a waterfront spot worthy of the occasion. No strangers, no set pace — just your group and the best of coastal Maine.
