Our group of 5 had a blast with Grant and Linda as our guides and owners of the business. The bikes were so much fun, felt brand new, and the helmets too! Check list: Best equipment you could ask for, check. Beautiful location of Sydney harbor and surrounding neighborhoods, check. Knowledgeable engaging guides, check. Linda’s homemade banana bread, check (were we just lucky she happened to have ripe bananas that day? IDK maybe she can’t do that every time, but just shows how lovely these owners are as people). We’ve done several e-bike tours in cities around the world. This was THE best 3 hr excursion we could have wished for. Thank you Grant and Linda for being who you are. We’re fortunate to have spent time with you.

The tour was amazing. Guides were fantastic. Tour was very relaxed and flexible - got to see parts of Sydney that we hadn’t seen before, it was a great way to see the sights . Would highly recommend.

Had the best time! Grant and Linda have so much knowledge to share and were so patient and of course the banana bread was to die for! Highly recommend!

A little bit hard to find but once we were there it was all fun fun fun. Grant was the best and the bikes exceptional

Despite the rain showers, we made a wonderful trip in a small group and 2 super enthusiastic guides.
