EVTT Provence is a Marseille-based bike rental and tour provider operating in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Specializing in electric city bikes, electric mountain bikes (VTT), and tandem VTTs, EVTT Provence supplies equipment suited to urban exploration and rugged Calanques trails. Rentals include models such as the Cube Kathmandu trekking bike, Cube Reaction electric mountain bike, and the Stereo Hybrid 120 electric mountain bike from 2021 and 2022 model years. Many VTT options feature hydraulic disc brakes, adjustable suspensions, fully suspended frames, and sizes for men, women and children. Helmets and repair kits are provided with selected rentals, and optional accessories include saddlebags and automatic pedals.
Tours range from short coastal rides — for example routes from the Goudes to the Vieux Port — to full-day excursions like the Traversée des Calanques Journée between Marseille and Cassis. The Balade à Sormiou highlights turquoise waters, a fishing port and beach stops, while the Journée Marseille et Calanques combines natural scenery with afternoon city exploration. EVTT Provence lists guided and self-guided formats and designs experiences for both family-friendly outings and sporty adult excursions.
