Super fun bike ride. Beautiful scenery and amazing little hike. Felt like a private tour. RJ and Phoenix were great guides. Super knowledgeable about all of Alaska. You still had to pedal but was very easy since it was an ebike. Great family excursion!

Allison was great. She not only lead us on a great & beautiful ride (saw glacier & forest!). She told us a lot about Juneau that friends who didn’t take this tour missed out on. The bikes and the van are very new. My first e-bike ride ever and it was easy and fun. Small group was a bonus.

This trip was SO much fun! Dan was knowledgeable, charismatic, & quite funny! Ali was sweet, attentive, & enthusiastic. They took excellent care of us. From pick up, which was easy to find, we went across to Douglas Island, got fitted for our bikes & helmets, & took off! This e-bike experience was my first & now I want one! It was just the little boost I needed to get up the hills. They took us to really cool places I wouldn’t have known how to get to. Their knowledge of the local flora & fauna was awesome! We even got to eat wild blueberries!! I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone who thinks it sounds like something they’d like. If you’re on the fence, let this be your sign: do it! Thanks Dan & Ali! Great job!! Lemon Liz, Jam Jeremy, & Mango Maya

Fun ride, rain not great

Helie_R, Sep 2025

James was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable about town history, landmarks, and forest trees. I wish the ride had been along a dedicated bike trail instead of a road, but cars were quite sparse, so that was all right. Lovely views and beautiful forests. The only downside was the pouring rain on the ride back.

Beautiful morning bike ride

Gregory_N, Sep 2025

Shorter ride than I expected but still a fun time. The guides were great and the bikes were very easy to operate. Beautiful day with Mendenhall Glacier across the bay in a distant view.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for joining us and for sharing your experience. Our overall ride is a total of 10 miles, which is a nice balance for both experienced and new riders. It may not feel that long because the ride is so scenic and beautiful! Along the way, our guides stop to show you various sites, such as the Mendenhall Glacier.

Ebike tour

Paul_M, Sep 2025

We rode e-bikes over into the rain forest area and then took a short hike through the forest over to the ocean side. The guides told us about the area including information about the history the plants and wildlife etc. it was very enjoyable, interesting a d beautiful. Awesome views of nature

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for joining us! It really is a beautiful and interesting ride. Beautiful because of all the amazing sites you get to see of the coastal and rainforest life and interesting because of the fun details you get to learn about life here in Alaska.

Fun & beautiful ride. 1st e-bike ride. It was GREAT.

Thank you for joining us! Our guides are awesome and really make each tour a personal experience! Its a unique one of kind tour that really shows you Alaska!

Family Fun!!!

Jennifer_M, Aug 2025

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for joining us! I am glad you family had fun! Our eBikes are Class 1, pedal assist. These are not the throttle eBikes but require pedaling to move. The eBikes have a setting that allows you to adjust how much assistance you want, so pedaling is easier. Its great for providing a range of activity level for guests!

Melissa_M, Aug 2025

Good tour. We saw a bald eagle. We enjoyed the hiking part of the tour more than the biking experience.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience! How awesome that you could see some Alaskan wildlife! Our eBike tour including riding as well as a small hike through the rainforest. Both allow you to see new things and experience Alaska in a different way!

Fun adventure

Barbara_L, Aug 2025

This was great! Very informative experience and super fun bike ride on trails, not just highways! Tony and Keily were amaze-balls! Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Our eBike ride is done along the bike path of Douglas Island. It is a beautiful ride as you get to admire the ocean view of Alaska. Thank you for joining us!

Great ride on a gorgeous day!

Robert_M, Aug 2025

The guides were enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It was a beautiful ride and hike. The e-bikes make the ride very pleasant.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Isn't the Alaskan scenery stunning. Our Class 1 Pedal Assist eBikes make riding easy and fun. You can also adjust the level to include the type of exercise you want. It's fun riding fit for everyone!

Not a good rain tour

Karla_S, Aug 2025

If we hadn’t done this excursion in the rain, it would have been much better. We actually rode on the highway to get to the rain forest. Fortunately the road wasn’t too busy and the vehicles were very good to get over. It was along the coast so I’m sure on a nice day it’s a pleasant ride, but not so much in the rain.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! I am sorry that the weather was not what you hoped for. Juneau is a part of the Tongass National Rainforest, one of the largest Rainforests here in North America. Rain is very common here and we owe the rain for our beauty. Many guests have really enjoyed riding in the rain as it can add to the adventure and authenticity of their Alaskan experience. I am sorry this was not the case for you. That being said, we ride rain or shine - making lasting memories along the way! Thank you for letting us share our Juneau with you!

Absolutely worth it!

Elizabeth_S, Aug 2025

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Aren't eBikes so awesome! They really make pedaling easy and riding fun for everyone! I am so glad you really enjoyed our tour with our guides. Thank you for the high recommendation!

Great way to see Douglas Island and an easy ride

Scott_T, Aug 2025

This is an easy and fun way to explore the northern side of Douglas island, across the Gastineau Channel from downtown Juneau. The ride is entirely on a paved road, but begins past the developed part of the island so you won’t encounter many cars. The road has wide shoulders and the hills are few and gentle—it’s a mostly level ride. You get great views of the Mendenhall glacier and can see kayakers and canoes in the channel. At the end of the ride, the guides lead you down a short hike to the water’s edge. They stop at several points and explain the ecosystem and how this part of Alaska was formed. They were knowledgeable and friendly. You don’t have to have any previous experience riding an e-bike. They provided different sizes to fit most riders, and clearly explained how to operate the bikes. They adjusted the seats for everyone, and gave time for everyone to practice and acquaint themselves. They stopped a couple of times on the ride at picturesque spots. One guide led the ride, while the other stayed at the back to make sure no one ran into any trouble. You can adjust how much “boost” the e-bike provides, so you can pedal as hard or as little as you want to. The bikes had gears, but you really didn’t need to shift gears to get up the gentle hills. This is a great way to see some of the area around Juneau that most tourists will never see. Highly recommended!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this thoughtful review. And thank you for highly recommending our tour! I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed the ride out on Douglas Island—it’s such a peaceful stretch of road, and those views of the glacier and the channel are some of my favorites too. I’m happy to hear the guides made you feel comfortable and supported throughout the experience. They genuinely care about making sure everyone feels confident on the bikes, and it sounds like they did a great job helping you settle in and enjoy the ride. It means a lot that you noticed the little things—like the stops to take in the scenery and the short hike to the water’s edge. I love that part of the tour because it gives folks a chance to connect with the landscape in a deeper way, and the guides enjoy sharing what makes this part of Alaska so special. Thanks again for joining us and for recommending the tour. I hope the rest of your time in Juneau was just as memorable!

Super fun experience with...

Super fun experience with great guides- Tyler and Darin! Very knowledgeable about the area and just fun overall. We were spoiled with amazing weather! Highly recommended this adventure @

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for recommending our eBike Rainforest Experience! I am so glad you got nice weather! Juneau is a rainforest, so the weather is not always what we hope. That being said, we do our tours in the nicest part of town, where weather is less rainy and intense! That makes riding more fun!

Juneau ebike!

Pamela_O, Jul 2025

We just completed the Perfect ebike trip in Juneau with Carli and Darren as guides! Amazing! Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for highly recommending our eBike adventure! I am so glad that you found it was perfect!

Very memorable/awesome excursion!

Terri_A, Jul 2025

Phoenix & RJ were excellent guides. Phoenix did a great job of sharing his knowledge about Alaska and the rainforest! The bikes were in good working order. They provided everything we needed; from water to gloves and even snacks! The views of the mountains/glacier were breathtaking! They got us back to the ship with plenty of time and offered to drop us off right at the ship, which we regretfully declined to shop(lines for the shuttle were extremely long). Highly recommend this adventure!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for highly recommending our eBike Rainforest Experience! The views are awesome, and the riding is fun!

Wonderful way to experience the natural beauty in Juneau!

Patti_S, Jul 2025

This relaxing and informative tour was a wonderful way to see many beautiful sights, experience a hike into the rainforest, learn a lot about the flora of the area, and get in a bit of exercise too! Carli and Tyler were absolutely fantastic tour guides who made the experience even more fabulous. The e-bikes made the ride very comfortable, allowing us to work as hard (or easy) as we wanted. Highly recommend this tour!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for highly recommending our eBike rainforest experience! I am so thrilled that you had an enjoyable time viewing the beautiful sites, learning about Alaska, and riding with our guides. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Awesome e-bike ride and short hike

Kenneth_B, Jul 2025

This was a great ride and short hike. They provided instruction on how to ride the bike (for first time e-bike rider like me). They provided snacks at the bottom of the trail. We were lucky with perfect weather, so I don't know how well it goes in the rain. The bikes were equipped with fenders for splash. The ride wasn't difficult, and there were places for photos. The guides were awesome and knowledgeable about the history and botany of the area. I would do this activity again!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for your kind words! I am thrilled your first e-bike experience was smooth and fun—and that our guides, snacks, and scenery made it even better. Come back anytime for round two!

So amazing! The views...

Scott_N, Jul 2025

So amazing! The views were spectacular! Phoenix, our guide, was awesome! Very knowledgeable of his town and the surrounding area! Would highly recommend doing this excursion! We were able to see a few bald eagles, a seal and some salmon. Fantastic!!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for highly recommending our tour! There really is so much to see as you ride along the coastline. And our guides are very good and pointing out the wildlife!

Our tour guides, Tyler...

Lisa_A, Jul 2025

Our tour guides, Tyler and Darin, were friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and amazing! We did see some beautiful sights and enjoyed the short rainforest walk to the beach. The downside is that we were on a 2-lane highway the entire time. Fortunately, there were few cars, but we were expecting to be on a bike path and not having to stay on the shoulder of a highway. The bikes also could be maintained better.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience! We strive to keep all our tour descriptions accurate for each affiliate and site that sells our tours. This includes the bikes being on a paved bike lane along a low traffic road. The views there are spectacular nonetheless! I am glad that you could still enjoy our tour and guides, and I am sorry that it didn't quite meet your expectations.

We were expecting more of...

Catherine_N, Jul 2025

We were expecting more of a ride that was not so much on the road but on paths/trails in nature. The blend of inexperienced riders with more experienced riders was kind of difficult. The tour organizers were amazing: Maddie, Tyler, and Phoenix- great job!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

I really appreciate you joining us and sharing your thoughts! It's wonderful to hear you connected with our team—they love what they do, and it means a lot when that shines through. That said, I am genuinely sorry the experience didn’t line up with what you were expecting. Our route does follow the roadside, and we aim to set clear expectations in our tour details for all our sites and all affiliates so this misunderstanding can be resolved. Regardless, the ride is great and the views as spectacular. Thank you for letting us share our part of Alaska with you!

Rainy day, but made the...

Anne_G, Jul 2025

Rainy day, but made the most of it with our guide Phoenix. Enjoyed our stops & all the knowledge of the rain forest that he shared. Nice way to spend a couple hours, and experience an e-bike for the 1st time.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Juneau is a part of the most beautiful temperate rainforest, so rain is quite common here. We always run our tours in the rain, and the best part is, they are still a lot of fun! Thank you for sharing your experience.

See the “real” Juneau!

Christi_M, Jul 2025

We had such a wonderful experience with Phoenix. The speed of the trip was just right and we made lots of stops which helped my butt not get sore from sitting on a bike seat for too long. (I don’t ride bikes very often). Phoenix was a treasure trove of information about Juneau and answered all the odd ball questions we had. It was great to see a much less touristy version of Juneau!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Seeing the real Juneau is important and can be hard if you are surrounded by all the touristy crowds. We do all our tours away from those crowds, so our guests get to really experience Alaska. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Best day in Juneau!

tracy_l, Jul 2025

Bike ride, minimal hills, hike through the rainforest. All incredible! Great way to spend the day! Our tour guides Dan and Ali were great!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

The eBike experience is easy riding! And the eBikes are adjustable so you can change the exercise level to you own desire! Thanks for joining us!

Gorgeous views, nice...

Nicole_G, Jul 2025

Gorgeous views, nice amount of exercise, knowledgeable tour guides that are very friendly. Loved seeing the waterfalls on the tour.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

The waterfalls are spectacular and so plentiful here! What I personally love about eBikes is that you can adjust the exercise level to your desire! Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

Excellent experience

Leslie_J, Jul 2025

Loved the experience. Mix of biking and walked through the Rainforest in the middle of the experience. You bike on the road. Weather is iffy so dress for sun and rain. The walk needs waterproof shoes or at least water resistant. Would do again.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for joining us! The nice thing about where we do our tours is that it is in a rain shadow, meaning it is typically better weather than the rest of Juneau. That being said, Juneau weather is something that everyone needs to prepare for, as it is a rainforest. Having layers and waterproof clothing is always something to consider when traveling to Southeast Alaska.

Best Guides

Becky_F, Jul 2025

Althought it was cold and rainy the entire ride our family had a fantastic ride with Darin and Phoenix. They were safety first, knowledgable about the land, water and entertaining all at the same time. Fun time and a great adventure!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

The realistic nature of Juneau is that sometimes it is wet, and it is cold! It is surely an authentic experience though! And despite the weather, you can still have so much fun! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Shari_F, Jun 2025

Beautiful ride, very easy, walk more than a hike through rain forest pretty as well; enjoyable trip and great way to spend a few hours in Juneau; Our Guides were fantastic (Carli and William).

Response from Host, Jun 2025

This is a great way to spend a few hours in Juneau, and I am so happy you could ride with us!

A must do!

Melissa_B, Jun 2025

This was such a fun experience! Phoenix and Darin were wonderful. Both are from the area and very knowledgeable and funny. They truly made the trip better. The views were something else!!! They show/tell you how to operate the ebikes. Which ended up being easy to do.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Our guides are amazing and they work very hard to show Juneau to our guests! They are also really good at making each tour personal! Thanks for joining us!

Great experience

Wonderful. Weather did not cooperate but was a wonderful experience. Rainforest was the best. E-bikes where very easy.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Sometimes the weather does not cooperate! But like you said, it doesn't affect the fun, enjoyment, and operations we have here in Juneau. Thanks for joining us!

great way to spend day in Juneau!
