French Riviera eBike Tour
4hr & 7hr electrically assisted bike tour suitable for adults & children aged 12 and over
The half-day and full-day tours will introduce you to some of the best views in the South of France with minimal effort.
For both the 4 hour & 7 hour tour, you will start at 10:00 in the centre of Nice, near the old town. You will head up the hills surrounding Nice to look back over the Port of Nice, then onto Mont Boron Park which has more jaw dropping views. The tour also passes medieval fortresses, towns and cathedrals, before returning back to Nice old town. There will be time for coffee stops.
What you will see:
- The Old Port of Nice – Port Lympia
- Mont Boron City Park
- Mont Alban
- Medieval Town of Villefranche
The 7hr tour will then continue on to:
- St Jean Cap Ferrat
- Visit of the Villa Ephrussi de Rotschild (ticket included)
- Picnic stop with a relaxing game of petanque, an iconic pastime of the French Riviera.
The superb eBikes - electrically assisted bikes - are lightweight, highly adjustable, and safe as you can easily put your feet down on the ground. The powerful assist engine boosts your pedalling, turning the steepest hills into a doddle! You still need a basic/medium fitness (this is a bike, not a scooter) as you need to pedal for the assistance to kick in and the weight limit of the eBikes is 120 kg/265 lbs. If you want a challenge, you can always turn the assistance off!
Due to the size of the eBikes, you'll need to be over 145cm or 4ft 9 inches to ensure the bikes fit you correctly. These tours are not suitable for children under the age of 12.

Promenade du Paillon
Nice’s flagship urban park covers 12 hectares in the heart of the city, just a few minutes walk from Promenade des Anglais. Promenade du Paillon used to be a very congested and rather ugly thoroughfare where the old bus station and multi storey car park were situated. It was demolished in 2011 and a 3 year development project took place to turn it into the oasis of green open space, safe play areas and impressive water features that we enjoy today.
