Overview

Guidekin summary

Three hours on an electric bike that climb the Croix-Rousse slopes and reach viewpoints a shorter loop skips, with a break in the Parc de la Tête d'Or. Bike, helmet and rain jacket are included, riders need to be twelve or older with some bike skills, and hotel pickup is not part of it. 4.89 from 85 reviews at €55 per person.
