Itinerary

Like the Eiffel Tower in Paris or the Empire State Building in New York, Mount Royal is Montreal’s towering trademark. Rising 764 feet (233 meters) above sea level, Mount Royal’s surrounding park spans 470 acres (190 hectares) and boasts some of the best city’s skyline views.

This 2-hour morning fat e-bike tour winds you through this urban winterland. With large tires and powered wheels, you’ll cover more ground with less effort. Follow your guide through the tranquil space and learn about the city’s history along the way. At the summit, admire the views from the lookout as you hear about the park designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, famous for his work on New York City’s Central Park.

Brilliant 2hr ebike experience around Mount Royal. David is an excellent guide, knowledgeable and very friendly. We had a couple of stops along the way with beautiful views of the city. The trip was in deep snow but David guided me through it expertly.

Everybody should see...

Scott_A, Jan 2026

Everybody should see Montreal in the winter this way. What a unique experience that allows you to be active (or not!) and take in the fresh air and sights of Mont Royal! David our guide was absolutely fantastic; passionate about the experience and his city!

Get ready for an adventure!

Courtney_P, Dec 2025

It was -27 but somehow David to made this ride super fun. We had a good group willing to make the trek and make the most of the experience. There are stops provided to warm you up. I would definitely recommend the tour just dress prepared for the cold and you’ll be fine.

We loved this adventure in Montreal. Our guide, Dave, took safety first and was very informative. It was a beautiful snowy day - how lucky were we???!!!!!!

Awesome

Nelda_R, Jan 2025

Guide was informative. Mount Royal is beautiful. It was a great day weatherwise. Bikes were easy to ride and it was lots of fun

Ebiking was a huge hit...

Katie_K, Jan 2025

Ebiking was a huge hit with our family. Our sons are 18 and 21 and it was their favorite part of the trip. If you have the right gear, the cold was not bad at all. David stops a couple of times so you warm up. He is an excellent guide and very knowledgable about the city.

Fun and exciting experience

Ankoor_D, Jan 2025

Amazing experience and I would highly recommend it to others traveling to Montreal. We had a great time and the guide was super friendly and helpful.

Fantastic tour - must do in Montreal!

A must-do experience!

Snow, Sights & E-Bikes

HsingI_W, Dec 2024

I highly recommend this tour. David is a passionate and professional guide who provided essential equipment to ensure everyone stayed warm throughout the journey. The e-bike was easy to ride and comfortable, though there were still chances of falling on snow-covered roads, but that's what made the adventure exciting. We began our adventure from the north side of Mount Royal Park, where a prominent statue stands. Our journey continued to an ice skating rink that offered restroom facilities and hot beverages. The highlight was reaching the observation deck, which offered a spectacular panoramic view of modern Montreal. The snow-covered scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and I look forward to experiencing different winter outdoor activities next time.

definitely would do again

jason_m, Dec 2024

Very fun, unique way to see Montreal

Gina_H, Dec 2024

The ride was beautiful and pretty easy, and I am not terribly stable on a bike. The guide was very friendly and helpful with his instructions, tips, and fun facts about the area. Would recommend!

Highly recommend

Shannon_D, Dec 2024

Great fun riding in the snow. Our tour guide was excellent and created opportunities for a fun ride despite varying levels of experience in our group.

Best experience in montreal

Joshua_L, Dec 2024

David was a good guide. Focused on keeping us warm, safety briefing before setting off, and giving us the history of the area, best food etc. Mount royal was beautiful. Highly recommend this activity to anyone who can ride a bike decently. No effort required because it is an e bike. So long as you can balance well.

No show

Richard_K, Mar 2024

Booked experience and received confirmation notices but on the scheduled day nobody arrived to lead the tour. Business was closed for renovations although a posted sign indicated that tours were still being led but nobody showed up. Very disappointed. Refund as provided promptly.

It was a great way to see...

Anna_C, Mar 2024

It was a great way to see the city and learn more about Montreal. I highly recommend it! The best part was to be outside and experience the city on wheels.

So much fun - highly recommended!

kerry_l, Feb 2024

This ride was beautiful and exhilarating, the highlight of our trip to Montreal. Several people in our group had never ridden e-bikes before but it was not an issue - Dayvid's instruction and supervision ensured we were safe and having a great time. If you are looking for an outdoor activity in Montreal I cannot recommend this enough - the length of time is perfect and you are rewarded with the most incredible views along the trail and at the top of the mountain. DRESS WARMLY - especially your hands, feet, and face. Dayvid, you rock!

Fun Winter Day in Montreal

Staci_N, Feb 2024

David made the experience super fun with all of his history knowledge of the area and let us stop to take pictures whenever we wanted. With it having just snowed, he was also very attentive and made sure we were always being safe.

A must-do winter activity in Montreal!

Sabrina_K, Feb 2024

What an absolute incredible experience! David was fantastic, made everyone feel comfortable and safe on the bikes and snowy paths. It was freezing but an amazing way to spend the morning!

Unique Way to See Montreal

Gary_R, Feb 2024

David was an excellent tour guide. Very helpful and knowledgeable. We went on a day it was snowing and that added to he fun!

The perfect tour to explore the city and Mount Royal!

Christopher_R, Feb 2024

Dave was amazing! I had such a great time riding around Montreal with him. The bikes were super comfortable and you really don’t have to pedal much, if you don’t want to. It was a perfect tour, with a perfect guide, who gives you great insights about the city and restaurant recommendations. Thanks a lot Dave! Recommending this tour to everyone!

Tried something new, liked it

Peter_C, Jan 2024

The experience was quite good and the views were splendid. The guide was very nice. Also trying out the fat bike was a good time. My main criticisms is that the day was very cold and you had to bring your own hand and foot warmers. I think maybe the guide having a few extras just in case would help out on such days.

Fun

Steven_Y, Jan 2024

David was great and insured everyone had fun. Great option of something to fun to do in the winter outside.

We loved taking the Fat Tire eBike Tour of Mont Royal!

Pam_B, Jan 2024

We went on David's ride on Mont Royal on a day when it was snowing -- and it was amazing! At first we considered canceling, based on the weather, but I'm so glad we didn't. David was the ultimate host and tour guide. He had the bikes ready and waiting for us, then also provided goggles, helmets, and snow cleats for our feet. We practiced on the bikes and then took off to the park. He provided extremely clear instructions for riding (we were a total group of 4), stopping, passing walkers, etc. Along the way we would stop and he would tell us more about the neighborhoods and areas we were going through. His pride in Montreal shines through and it was a pleasure to learn more about the city. The entire time he made sure we were both safe and having fun. He was the official videographer/photographer and so pleasant to spend time with. I would 150% recommend anybody to do this tour, even if it's snowing!

Fun adventure on Mont Royale

Jackie_F, Jan 2024

Our Tour guide was excellent!!! He had a great attitude and was constantly instructing us during the ride. Although the conditions were icy, he kept us safe and made the experience enjoyable. This tour was fun and memorable for my family and I greatly recommend it.

Amazing experience!

Martha_E, Jan 2024

The eBike tour was great fun! David, our guide, did an exceptional job. He was very knowledgable and personable and went above and beyond. The ride to the top was a blast. Because the fog prevented us from seeing the view from the top of Mount Royal, he offered to extend our tour to see parts the city, which our family did. The entire experience was fabulous. This was a great memory maker and so worth it. Highly recommend!

Great way to explore a beautiful city!

Kate_W, Dec 2023

David was fabtastic- even though Mother Nature did not cooperate- super foggy day- he more than made up for it with an extended tour of the city! Bikes were easy to operate and so much fun!

We had a wonderfully cold...

Jennifer_R, Dec 2023

We had a wonderfully cold bike ride with David, who was always checking to see if the group was safe. The e-bike can do as much work as you want it to and the trek would be great for a multi-generational activity.
