Discover one of the most scenic rides in the world on our electric bikes. Famous for its beauty, 17-Mile Drive offers the ultimate experience to explore the peninsula. Our electric bike guided tour is a great way to see the enchanting world full of spectacular coastal views, iconic golf courses, and the most photographed tree in the world.

You will ride from our bike shop in downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea, and your guide will take you to all of the best spots in Pebble Beach. You'll pause at landmarks such as The Lodge at Pebble Beach, The Lone Cypress, Bird Rock, Point Joe, Spanish Bay, and Crocker Grove, which is home to the largest and oldest Cypress trees in existence. Observe wildlife such birds, marine mammals, and deer.

Take lots of photos so you can share the beauty with your friends who couldn’t make it, and then cycle back to our shop.

If you reserve a tour date, but we have less than 4 people sign up for the tour, then we reserve the right to cancel the tour with a full refund, or convert the tour to a private guided tour (additional rates apply), or combine your booking with another at a different time and/or day, or convert the tour to a standard rental reservation (no tour guide, freedom of route and timing). As necessary, these options will be reviewed with the customer for their approval 24 hours before the reservation.
