Good bike rentals sell their best slots weeks ahead. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Pick up a fitted bike near Fisherman’s Wharf, then follow maps and route advice along a mostly flat, car-free path past Fort Mason, the Palace of Fine Arts, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Ride to Sausalito or Tiburon, then return by ferry with your bike.
Pick up a KTM e-bike at E-Motion Nazaré and set your own pace along the Atlantic coast. Choose a mountain or urban model, use the routes loaded onto your phone, and ride north toward São Pedro de Moel or south to São Martinho do Porto. Bikes for children are also available.
“Plus: They matched me to a bike that fit me. Negative: Finding the bike paths was not easy and getting to the North part was a bit scary but not their fault.”
Pick up a regular bike or ebike near Parliament Hill, get a helmet, lock, and custom RidewithGPS route, then pedal Ottawa and Gatineau at your own pace. Staff including Maria and Sam can suggest routes. Choose four hours or a full day, with bikes due back by 6 PM.
“A rejuvenating experience: six hours immersed in nature, with climbs, descents, and relaxing views. Good organization and a fair price for the duration and quality of the service offered. A big thank you to the very kind and helpful Maria and Sam.”
You’ll receive an Envo e-bike, helmet, lock, phone mount, bike bag, pump, first aid kit, and GPS support, plus a clear safety briefing. Choose a preset Kelowna route in the app or plan your own ride, with pedal assist and throttle power for hills.
“We expected to go to the old train trail by bike, but that was too far away from starting point. But we had fun.”
Ride Sydney at your own pace on a comfortable electric bike guided by the Wheel Explorer App. Follow audio directions from Pyrmont through Darling Harbour, the Harbour Bridge, Opera House, gardens, Woolloomooloo, Surry Hills, and Chinatown. Guided help with Jake may also be available.
“This was a pleasant tour and an easy way to learn about the city. The guide shared a lot of useful information and explained everything clearly. The city is beautiful, and the tour gave a good overview. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to explore and learn more.”
Pick a walk, a drive, a ticket or a game.
