We are awarded 'VisitScotland’s 2026 Best Outdoor Experience' — and we’re proud to be the only cycle tour company in Scotland to have received this award.
Our cycle tours avoid busy roads, with small groups of no more than 10. Enjoy a relaxed, low-impact, low-carbon way to explore Edinburgh, with passionate, qualified guides who love sharing Scotland’s history, culture and stories.
Our e-bikes suit riders of different heights and make cycling around Arthur’s Seat easier, so you can enjoy the scenery without worrying about the hills.
UK regulations require riders to be 14 or older to ride an e-bike.
Rain or shine! Scottish weather is all part of the experience. Please bring a waterproof jacket and embrace the Scottish weather.
All riders must be able to ride a bike safely and confidently. For safety reasons, you may refuse participation if a rider is unable to do so. No refund will be available in these circumstances.
