      Amazing experience!
      My husband and I took this tour and it was the highlight of our vacation. The Calanques National Park was so beautiful and the e-bikes made it an exciting experience. There were some challenging hills and riding on the streets with cars, so you should be comfortable riding a bike, but the e-bike made it all doable.

      So glad we did
      We loved this experience so much. Our Tour was brilliant. Not going to lie had not been on bike for a while so after a bit it was smooth sailing. But I am 56. The operator was brilliant

      Biking Adventure!
      Our guide, Vincent, was amazing! He was very personable and made sure we understood how to operate the e-bikes. I appreciated his effort to speak both in English and in French. The ride is challenging since so much is uphill and you really have to put effort into pedalling. Having prior biking experience and a good fitness level would be a benefit. This was definitely a highlight of our time in France.

      Fun Adventure
      The bike ride was a good mix of fun and adventure. Also, our guide, Martin, was super friendly and informative. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

      Wonderful experience
      We went as a group with a couple and an additional friend. The ride was amazing, our guide, Vincent was knowledgeable of the area and the activity. Vincent was attentive to our needs as English speakers, giving separate instructions to the French members of the tour, and ourselves. The eBikes were of good quality, and made the terrain incredibly accessible. Some parts of the trail were a little scary, but the confidence of our guide allowed us to conquer our fears and see the beauty of Marseille and its surroundings. We did not realise that there was a break at the beach in the middle of the ride where we could swim if desired. If you want to cool off in the middle of the ride bring bathers and a towel.

      Off the beaten track
      Wow, what a great adventure our guide Martin took us on. Into beautiful national park adjacent to Marseille with spectacular views and a stop in a small harbour for a swim and or drink snack at local bar. Was challenging for the novice mountain biker but enough potential for fun for more experienced bikers and of course the electric assist just made it fun. Would highly recommend for other adventurous kiwis.

      Do not miss this tour
      Definitely the best thing to do in marseille if you like out door and nature. Martin the guide, was awesome. We were late due to heavy traffic and he waited for us. Very friendly, always mindful about those with less experience on bikes. If ever back here, will do it again. 100% worth it.

      An exciting way to see the beauty of the Marseille. Guild was well informed and very friendly. The electrical bikes also made it ease to get around without being sore the next day.

      Scenic tour with brilliant bikes- can be as easy/ difficult as you like with ebike
      The trip was fantastic. The bikes were brilliant to ride and the tour around les calanques was incredible with some challenging sections made comfortable with turbo mode on the bike. The scenic calanque we visited gave us a chance to have a swim and enjoy a beer by the water. Nicolas was a brilliant guide- very knowledgable. The only downside was due to the size of our group (12) we had a couple of slower individuals which held up our progress a touch. To his credit, Nicolas was extremely patient with them. Overall would 100% recommend to anyone

      Excellent e-bike tour
      Martin was a fabulous tour guide. He was patient and helpful with members of the group who were not experienced bikers. He also added interesting historical context to at various points on the tour. The electric bikes make a huge difference in climbing up hills, you don't need a high level of fitness level to enjoy yourself.

      Great experience. Fantastic tour guide called Martin. Perfect for a group of friends visiting Marseille - just remember to take a big bottle of water.

      Spectacular Route des crêtes ! Great rental at Evtt Provence
      Super service with rented road & electric bikes at Evtt Provence in Marseille. A fantastic family and friends tour from Marseille to La Ciotat via La Route des crêtes (no cars allowed on Sundays). We were really well attended at Evtt for the rentals. Will definitely do again, not many option to rent both electric, gravel and road bikes at the same shop !

    The first great signs were prompt communication after purchase and the great amount of detailed info on their website. Lots of nice detailed info on how to get to starting point. Email 48 hours before tour was nice as well.

    Frank on the day of tour promptly fit everyone with bikes and after a brief explanation we were off. I had ridden mountain bikes with rapid fire shifters so I was fairly familiar with the idea. Ebikes are the bomb. If you are well enough to handle a 45 min workout you will be fine on the uphills. Some downhill parts might scare those not familiar with any mountain biking experience, but Frank was understanding of all levels.

    The views are so very striking and really not possible unless you bike or hike there. I was so pleased that we were able to see this fab place and I would totally recommend this experience to anyone wanting to see the Calanques!!! Was a highlight of our time in Marsaille and this a spectacular place in France to see.

    And makes me totally consider buying an ebike or doing other ebike excursions. And fyi I am almost 50, healthy-ish woman who enjoys beer and cheesesteaks!

    Outstanding bike tour with incredible and conscientious tour guides. We did the tour with our 11 and 12 year olds who were the only children in the group. One of the two guides paid them extra special attention, guiding them through the electric bikes and giving helpful gear and shifting instruction throughout. It was our first experience on electric bikes and it could not have been more positive.
    The only thing to note: I feel like this may not be the best trip for very experienced riders. There is some mountainous terrain, plus some city riding, and there were very many stops by the guides to explain the upcoming partion of the ride, what to be aware of, and bike recommendations. Again, this was a perfect trip for us, but if I were alone, I would have wished for less stopping.

    Our e-bike adventure was so much fun! I’d highly recommend this to anyone. The bike made the uphills easy and you still get the thrill of riding down! The views were incredible and the swim spot couldn’t have been better. 100% worth it and would do it again

    Fantastic experience to visit the calanques in a more alternative and different way than the usual cruises.
    Frank, the guide, is very knowledgeable both in his explanations of the places and in his explanations of the ebikes.
    The ebikes are super and easy to use, just listen to Frank and you don't struggle at all.

    Highly recommended experience!

    I enjoyed the tour but it did contain a lot of gravel surfaces which my wife was not prepared for. My e-bike had gearing issues and the guide (Martin) swapped out for me. Bring lots of water in July.

    Lovely day trip around the Calanques, definitely recommend it! The biking part was no problem because the bikes were electrical, so the hills were no problem. I wouldnt mind stopping for longer at some places, so there would be time to take a little swim, but otherwise it was an amazing trip and the guide, Martin, was very nice.

    Top bikes, friendly guides. Just the group was too big (18, two guides). Duration of the tour was perfect for us. We took the shuttle boot back to Marseille Vieux port which was a perfect end to our tour.

    We had a great day. Our cruise ship docked at marseille and I wanted to have a challenging active excursion that was not far from the port. This hit all the boxes. Our guide was patient and explained how to use the bike and how to adjust it based on the different terrain. We got to see the calanques from a unique perspective which was stunning. Recommended for older teens/ adults who feel comfortable on a bike and comfortable riding through city streets sharing the road with cars as well as riding down bumpy rocky terrain with steep climbs and steep descents with sharp turns.

    Awesome views. Was a cool trek throughout the national park. Some
    Intense hills made the E-bike come very handy! Great way to see the national park
