This activity was the favorite of our whole trip. Our guide, Emily, was so pleasant, and informative. We loved being so close to nature and the freedom we felt. The rides downhill were exhilarating plus the ebikes made the long journey a breeze. Highly recommend!!!

This was an amazing trip and so much more than we had expected. The E-bikes were easy to use and allowed us to cover more ground than we would’ve been able to on a regular bike. The guides (Beth &Liv) were friendly and relaxed, the scenery amazing and we were even fortunate enough to encounter elk. The trip lasted 4.5 hrs, so some level of general fitness required.

Awesome, bike tour of the Banff area, including lakes and lookouts

Jane_O, Sep 2026
I cannot say enough fabulous things about this bike tour. My friend and I turned out to be the only people on the tour, which made it a private tour! Rode comfortable electric bikes from lake to lake from view point to view point. We actually saw a mother bear and her three cub and a herd of elk. Our guide was very friendly and informative and made the ride a lot of fun. I believe our guides name was Emily asked for her if possible she was awesome.

Great way to spend a couple of hours outdoors learning about the area. E-bikes were awesome on the hills and Hannah was a great guide!

Hannah rocks!

Awesome family bike activity

Great experience

Baiba_G, Jul 2026
I had a fantastic experience on the Lakefront Tour! It was the perfect balance—not too challenging, but still active and enjoyable. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared so much interesting information about the area and its wildlife, which made the experience even more memorable. The highlight of the tour was seeing a young black bear peacefully roaming through the woods. It was such an incredible and unforgettable moment. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, scenic, and well-guided adventure!

What an amazing time of bike riding

Sherry_G, Jul 2026
There were 6 of us in the group and Hannah did an amazing job of keeping us all together and making the e-bike tour exciting, fun and memorable. When I booked this tour I was not expecting to travel such a distance but never feeling like we were riding so far. Hannah took us to view many wonderful sites around the area. She was great and the 4 of us friends had a wonderful time!!

Enjoyable from beginning to end!

E-biking is my favorite way to get around now!

Brittney_L, Jun 2026
The E-bike was easier to work than I expected with zero experience besides biking as a child. We had taken a shuttle bus to some of the main attractions the day before but the experience was taken to a whole other level doing it via e-bike! Our guide Dillon was phenomenal, truly made the experience super Pleasant! He was extremely thoughtful and took use via routes I would not have known about as a tourist. Best part of our trip!

Perfect ride

John_a, Jun 2026
Beautiful bike ride and our guide had great stories so we learned about the sights we were seeing - great way to see lakes and wildlife.

Britni_B, Jun 2026
We enjoyed the ride despite the cloudy day! It is every bit of a four hour trip, but broken up well! Our guide, Emily, was really great and made the trip very enjoyable the whole way.

Worth doing!

Brier was a fabulous guide. Knowledgeable, fun and careful to ensure we were safe and had a great time. We loved it! Excellent way to see different areas of Banff

E-bike Ride and Tour

Katrina_B, Oct 2025
It was a fun, fabulous experience. I hadnt used an e-bike before but once I grasped it the adventure was a go. Uphills were overcome and loved the experience. Our tour guide Ken was warm, knowledgeable and a delight to be with. The weather held making it a plus for the 4 hr cycle and sight seeing. Thank you

You get a chance to see multiple lakes and Banff scenery while riding a bike. A great way to see more of Banff and enjoy the beautiful weather.

Austin_S, Sep 2025
Our guide Nick took my wife and I along with another couple on a fantastic 24 mile e-bike ride throughout banff. We saw a number of lakes, waterfalls, meadows, mountain ranges, etc. Nick was very knowledgeable about the area and shared interesting facts with us. The trip lasted 4 hours and was not rushed at all. The e-bikes worked incredibly well so you could get as little or as much exercise as you would like. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Banff!

Relaxing way to see country side and hear about the area.

Julie_E, Aug 2025
Beautiful way to see the area, nice to stop at certain spots to enjoy refreshments and take breaks if you’re not use to riding. The guide is informative and doesn’t make you feel rushed. If you’re not use to riding on a bike, the seat can be a little uncomfortable because you are riding for 3 hours! Had a very relaxing time and can really appreciate nature around you!!

E-bike tour of lakes

Lynn_F, Aug 2025
They should know how to use grip shift and electrical speed controls before going out. John was a great tour guide who knew the history and area very well.

Our guide John E was great and made the ride a lot of fun and interesting. He had great stories and information about the area.

Perfect afternoon

Sabrina_W, Jul 2025
This experience was amazing. We would’ve never gotten to see all the places that the tour guide took us. He was very informative and it was very fun. It also started to sprinkle a little bit and he had actually prepared with rain jackets for us, which was super helpful.. highly recommend, especially if you do not love being around all the crowds. This was a perfect afternoon.

Joe_B, Jul 2025
Amazing experience on this e-bike tour. You cover around 20 miles in 3-4 hours but it feels like nothing. Our guide Molly was great! No shortage of views, adventure and just the right mix of stops and plenty of time for photos.
