# 'A Wee Pedal's' Family Friendly Cycle Tour to Edinburgh's Coast

**Guidekin's take:** Ride towards Edinburgh's coast from a starting point directly on the cycle path. A manual bike, helmet and qualified guide are included; everyone riding, including children, must cycle confidently, and the ride goes ahead in rain. 4.86 from 59 reviews at €74 per person for 3h.

## Overview

Why book with A wee pedal? We are Visit Scotland's award winning 'Best outdoor experience' praised for high quality guest experience whilst supporting the local community. We have no need to use vehicles as we start right on the cycle path and are proudly named a zero-carbon company. Groups are kept small for high guest experience and safety and you'll learn about this ancient city whilst having a lot of fun with our qualified and experienced guides. This is a fun ride with the promise of an ice cream (or coffee!) on the beach or inside to warm up if in winter. It is a 12 mile round trip. 
You will start right in the heart of Craigmillar Castle grounds, close to the city centre and easily accessed by foot, bus, taxi or car (there is free on-site parking) E-bikes can be hired at an additional cost of £25pp cash on the day. Please let me know if you would like this option. UK regulations mean age 14 is the minimum age to ride an E bike. Guests must be able to ride a bike safely.
