Perfect little morning escape - Enzo was our guide and he was awesome. He brought us to spots which we would have never found by ourselves and it was an enjoyable tour of about 2 1/2 hours. Would recommend this tour and would do it again.

Time well spent - We had a great time on this e-bike tour. Once we started, it was well paced and we covered a lot of ground.Our guide was great, and we loved riding to areas we would not have been able to reach without a guide…the highest point in Villefrance-sur-Mer. We started about 45 minutes late due to others in the group who arrived late, but the staff was very apologetic and we didn’t lose any tour time in the end. Tip: Make sure to bring your own water for the ride.

Fantastic e-bike tour - We had a fantastic 1/2 day tour with Loic in Nice. The bikes were comfortable to ride, the route was fantastic towards Villefranche with a chance to explore the hidden natural beauty and incredible views of Mont Boron. Some historical information added to our experience. The group was small only 6 of us, we all had a wonderful time. Highly recommend.

E-bike tour with Elena from Mobilboard - Inspired by GetYour Guide (gyg) i easily booked a three hours e-Bike guided tour. The tour is offered by Mobilboard and the most charming and service minded guide Elena. This tour is the absolutely best way to se Nice and more. We saw and learned a lot and really enjoyed the trip. Make sure that you book a tour with Elena - she is great! And the bikes are really fine and will take you up hill with no problems.

Beautiful ride - This was totally worth it! Amazing views and places we would’ve never found on our own. Elena was our guide and she was wonderful! She knows her history and is passionate about Nice. The bikes were good quality and we would definitely do this again!

Great views! - The Panoramic Bike Tour is a fabulous way to view the coast of Nice and points north of the city! Our guide, John, was very friendly and informative. However, be aware that this is not a leisurely ride up the coast. The electric bikes make climbing hills to scenic vantage points a breeze, but they do take some getting used to. Learning how to use the electric gear settings on a busy city street/promenade is not ideal. My husband and I (50’s) are reasonably active, including traditional biking, and found zipping through the busy streets kind of intimidating. Fortunately local drivers are accustomed to all kinds of traffic including bikes, scooters, etc and were respectful. Our favorite part of the tour was seeing Villefranche-sur-Mer- so peaceful and beautiful!

Great scenery, inconsistent guides. - Scenery was fantastic, but overall experience with the guide and the company was unfavorable. The company gave no instructions on how to operate an e-bike. This resulted in several problems along the route which holds up everyone. The guide gave very little narration over a 3 hour trip. Most of this trip is on narrow and busy city streets so you must be an experienced bicyclist. Again, scenery is fantastic, but your overall experience will depend on your guide. They are inconsistent at best.

Would not recommend this company - Disappointed about this experience. I have ridden e-bikes in other cities and countries and not had any problems. The scenery was spectacular but our guide gave very little guidance on the bike operation or what to expect on the route. She had almost no information about what we were seeing. We were thrown into difficult traffic situations on steep, curving roads without warning. One of the men on the trip had to fix two different bikes for people because our guide didn’t know what to do. Also, 8 riders and only one guide is just not enough. There should have been a guide at the end of the line helping people.
