- pattybruzek0 contributionsA great way to visit the Falls!!We really loved using the bikes. They were easy to use and there was a paved bike path out to the Falls. They were so wonderful to work with!Written September 29, 2024
- 6KP60 contributionsExcellent bikes, friendly and helpful staff.We rented a couple of bikes to ride out to the Montmorency Falls. Excellent bikes, very friendly and helpful staff. We had a great day out and would highly recommend Echo bikes as a supplier. The trip out to Montmorency is lovely and well worth doing.Written September 29, 2024
- Barbturner20130 contributionsCity Tour on e-bikesThe views were lovely but found the guide Danille to be in a rush and hard to keep up with…..lost her a couple of times. Also be aware that you are driving thru traffic in the same lanes as cars , trucks and buses for a good portion of the trip. You are expected to pass in and around these moving vehicles. Bike path portion was very nice, but roads were extremely busy and navigating through traffic was very stressful. Not given much guidance by the guide as she was well ahead of half of the group.. Our guide also shared her political views to the group that were unnecessary and biased to her beliefs……political views should not be part of the tour. Overall it was a great way to see a lot of the city but many aspects of the trip could be improved.Written September 28, 2024
- tstewart880 contributionsDodging traffic but big fun!!It was really fun tour and we definitely do it again with our group of 5. Would have loved a better orientation to the bikes for our the 1st timers. There is definitely a learning curve. BEWARE that you WILL be riding through traffic & in and out of cars. It was a little scary. Guide was very knowledgeable but lost the back half of our group twice turning corners going through town. However, we got to see some really cool things and she worked hard to get us to parliament before a protest that day. I still would highly recommend the tour. Guide could stick to less political topics and be more empathetic to those of us who aren’t used to the city. Still highly recommend !!Written September 28, 2024
- Carrie S0 contributionsA Great Way to See Quebec City!A fun way to see Quebec City. Had we not taken this tour we probably would have not seen how beautiful a city it is. The bike tour was challenging at first, just figuring out how the ride the E Bikes. But no falls for us, so a great day! Danielle, our tour guide, was great! Very knowledgeable about the city and she clearly loved Quebec City! We were lucky to have her as our guide. Would totally do an E-bike tour again!Written September 25, 2024
- sward50 contributionsTour Guide Cancelled at the last minuteUnfortunately our guide cancelled at the last minute. The folks at Echo Sports felt terrible. They gave us a full refund and let us use the bikes on our own for 3 hours. It was a nice way to see the city but we definitely missed learning the history of the city. It was too late to schedule a different day or time on the bikes.Written September 24, 2024
- 865dawni0 contributionsfun ride, good peoplebike were good, staff was GREAT! advised us where to ride, even gave us lunch suggestions! lets u borrow some hats and gloves cause it as coldWritten September 23, 2024
- LJAMaidenhead0 contributionsOne of the things you must do whilst visiting Quebec. By far, the best way of seeing the city.One of the things you mustWhat a great tour. There were six of us plus our guide and it was a great way of spending an afternoon. We must have travelled around 25 km, so saw absolutely everything, including some of the less visited parts of Quebec and our guide, Renard, was absolutely fantastic. He knew everything about the city and lived in the centre, so really knew what he was talking about. The bikes were first class and good quality, I would thoroughly recommend this tripWritten September 17, 2024
- Jet045926172140 contributionsGreat day in QuebecDanielle our guide was superb, very knowledgeable, warm and friendly. She went out of her way in all respects. Couldn’t find a better guide.Written September 13, 2024
- 33Carolita0 contributionsGreat way to see Quebec CityWe had a really great time on the tour. It was just my husband and I with the tour guide Ben. Ben is very knowledgeable, has a great sense of humor and was good about guiding us through busy streets safely. I think the only thing I would’ve liked differently is to have those microphone earpieces to hear him speak while riding the bikes on tour. Naturally, there’s a lot of stopping for notable places on the tour. But I think we could’ve heard a lot more history if he had a microphone. I highly recommend this trip, and I would do it again when I return to the city.Written September 12, 2024

- 868linda0 contributionsWonderful biking day in QuebecProbably our most enjoyable day in the city . The bike was extremely easy to use and the owner was so helpful in teaching us and giving us suggestions for where to go . A bike path the whole way helped us to feel safe and comfortable . Highly recommend this !Written August 13, 2024
- Escape6252670 contributionsGreat electric scooter tour!Gaby was a great guide and very patient with first time scooter riders. The scooters were easy to use and the whole tour was on a path away from traffic. There were only a few stops with information but it was a great ride along the water and wonderful to get out of downtown for a little while.Written August 13, 2024

The tour guide was great, forgot his name. However, me and my mom opted for regular bikes, not e-bikes (which the e bike was an extra 25 per person). While the ride itself was mostly flat, the pace was extremely fast, because everyone else in our group had e-bikes. There were times we were so far behind we couldnt even see the guide. We didnt want to slow down the group, so we managed to keep up the best we could, but for 16 miles you can only bike so fast. The rest of our group basically had the bike do the work for them! If you do the tour I recommend the e-bikes, but the tour guide didnt say at the beginning that we would be going at an e bike pace, so we assumed we would be totally fine as we bike quite often.

Please tell me what date it was. I will check with your guide to see what happened. Everyday we have clients with e bikes and others with regular bikes and this is the first time that i hear such a comment.
thank you!

Our experience with this tour was very good. We chose it because of its high ratings and touring via bike is often a great way to see a city. The distance of the tour, however, was not stated in its description and we regrettably failed to ask. This is a 20+ mile ride and for those casual riders like us we suggest you opt for the more comfortable e-bikes. The bicycles we were assigned were probably expensive and smooth shifting but their seats were very uncomfortable and are best suited for use with padded biker shorts or some sort of slip-on pad. Thankfully, the entire path was paved and mainly flat making for easy peddling. The "guided" part of the tour included a few somewhat interesting venues on the way to the Falls. The Falls themselves, at the halfway point of the tour, was fabulous and fun to explore. With this information in hand I highly recommend this tour.

Lovely and enjoyable four hour bike ride from old Quebec to the falls. Our guide was Evelyn who kept a nice pace but frequent stops and was very informative. Bike ride on non-e-bikes was enjoyable and flat. Traveled through the port area and industrial areas on the way to the falls. The falls themselves were very impressive but slightly crowded. Impressive sight both from the ground and above on the suspension bridge. Area to the falls and even the falls themselves are much more industrial and populated then on first appearance. Good activity to get a slight amount of exercise while on vacation and still with the mildly industrial views was well worth it.

Thank you for your good review. I just want to clarify about the industrial area. Yes it is partly industrial but there are also a lot of nice parks along the way. Québec is not New-York so it is not so industrial. It is a pleasant ride to the falls

We rented bikes online for the first full day of our trip to Québec. We are both short in stature so we wanted to make sure they had small hybrid bikes set aside for us and they didn’t disappoint. Staff are great and they make sure you are all set up. The bikes are good and the location can’t be beat. No traffic because you are right on the bike path and you are good to go! We went back a couple of days later and took the bikes for another half day. The first day, we rode out to the Montmorency Falls, back into town, took the ferry with the bikes to Lévis, and back across and up to the Grande Marche! It was great! Two days later we decided to take them again and renting these bikes was the best part of our trip!

We definitely made the right choice to bike to Montmorency Falls and definitely had the best guide for that! Paul was amazing! He was so knowledgeable and helpful with all our questions and needs throughout the tour. Considering it was our first time in Quebec City, we had so many questions. His tour was so inclusive that we didn't think that we needed another tour for QC. We were worried about not being physically able to bike all the way, but the bikes were great and the route was mostly flat so it wasn't bad at all! I'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone who travels to QC. This tour only allot the time for taking the cable car ride to the top and looking over the falls from the bridge, which is absolutely stunning! My only small complaint was that I wish we were taking the ground access to the falls for the ground level view as well. I'd imagine that's a great view as well. But I'd still give it five star for giving us an amazing experience!

This tour was great. Bike shop easy to find, staff very helpful. The bike tracks to Montmorency were mostly flat so the cycling was fairly easy. Not many road crossings and they were all at traffic lights and supervised by our guide. Our guide Benoit was informative and friendly. I would recommend this to anybody who enjoys cycling.

Everything was amazing (and I'm not exaggerating). The bikes of good quality, the paths that we took have beautiful landscapes, and Paul, the guide, it's an amazing person. He's nice, he's fun, has a lot of good talking, and takes care of all the group. I went to the Montmorency falls before, but arriving there by bike it's a totally better experience. I really recommend the tour.

Great tour - knowledgeable guide, caring staff at bike shop and good equipment (we used regular bike). It drizzled/rained the first couple hours but we were with a good group and all were enjoying the experience. My teen daughter and I were able to keep up with those on electric bikes. Suggest if you register - let them know your skill level so expectations are known ahead of time. The falls were beautiful.
