Duration

About

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 which is located in the Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa right next to the Coastal Recreation Trail. Your guide will take you to all of the best spots along Monterey Cannery Row, Pacific Grove, and Pebble Beach. You'll pass landmarks such as The Monterey Bay Aquarium, Lovers Point, Point Piños Lighthouse, Spanish Bay Lodge and Links, Bird Rock, and Point Joe. As time allows, we'll ride past Cypress Point Golf Club and Links, Spyglass Hill Golf Links, The Lone Cypress, Crocker Grove, which is home to the largest and oldest Cypress trees in existence, and Point Pescadero and Pebble Beach Lodge and Links with astounding views of Carmel Bay. Observe wildlife such as 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.

The minimum for a non-private tour to operate is 4 riders. If you book a tour, but we have less than 4 riders 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.

For parties of 1 or greater than 10, with dogs, children or anyone who can't pedal and need a throttle or need to be a ride-along passenger, or with any other special requests, please call to inquire. We will do our best to accommodate.

Complimentary valet parking with the Monterey Plaza Hotel when you book a tour!
