Monterey, California, offers a dynamic coastal playground where rugged cliffs meet the Pacific's vast expanse. Known for its rich maritime history and vibrant marine life, this iconic city invites adventurers to move beyond traditional hikes and boat tours with Two Wheel Tours, a standout provider of electric bike and scooter experiences that put you in control of your journey along the Monterey Peninsula.
Two Wheel Tours specializes in flexible, self-guided e-bike and electric scooter rentals and tours that cover everything from brief two-hour jaunts to full-day excursions. Their carefully designed routes incorporate key points of interest such as dramatic coastal bluffs, pristine tide pools, and scenic vistas overlooking Carmel Bay and Pacific Grove. An app-based narration enhances the experience by delivering historical context and local insights, allowing riders to pause and linger where they please – whether for photography, wildlife spotting, or a leisurely lunch along the shore.
What sets Two Wheel Tours apart is its community-driven approach and attention to rider comfort. The fleet’s well-maintained electric bikes and scooters require no special licenses and range up to 25 MPH, blending easy accessibility with confident performance. Owner Rick provides hands-on training and flexible scheduling that even accommodates sunset rides, ensuring every rider feels prepared and supported.
The Monterey Peninsula’s unique geography—steep marine terraces, Monterey Cypress groves, and protected marine areas—creates a route rich in natural beauty and wildlife, including sea otters and shorebirds. This makes Two Wheel Tours not only a fun activity but also a respectful way to engage with the environment and support a local, sustainable business. Whether you’re chasing coastal views or historic landmarks, these electric tours offer a fresh, invigorating way to connect with the iconic Central Coast landscape.
