Best ebike tour of Asheville, Drew is the best!!! - If you’re looking for a memorable way to explore Asheville, we highly recommend taking an e-bike tour! We had the privilege of experiencing this adventure recently, and it exceeded all expectations. Our tour guide, Drew, was absolutely fantastic. His laid-back, attentive demeanor made everyone feel at ease, regardless of their skill level. Drew ensured we stayed safe and comfortable while also sharing fascinating insights about the city.
The tour gave us a unique perspective on Asheville’s resilience in the wake of Hurricane Helene. We visited areas that were impacted by the storm and saw firsthand how the city is rebuilding and moving forward. It was inspiring to witness this resilience while supporting the local economy during such a critical time. A highlight of the tour was our stop at the historic Grove Park Inn, which offered breathtaking views and a sense of Asheville’s timeless charm.
Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or a first-timer, this e-bike tour is an amazing way to explore Asheville's vibrant community, scenic landscapes, and historic landmarks. Plus, it’s an opportunity to contribute to the city’s recovery by bringing much-needed tourism back to the area.

5 Star E Bike tour Asheville - Electric Bike Tour in Asheville – A Must-Do Experience!
If you're able to ride a bike, an Asheville Guided Electric Bike Tour with Scenic Views is absolutely the best way to see this beautiful city! Our guide, Drew, was incredible. Not only was he a local, but he also shared firsthand stories of his experience during Hurricane Helene, including being without power for weeks and without drinking water for nearly two months. His insights into the resilience of Asheville were both humbling and inspiring.
While the hurricane’s devastation meant some of the usual tour paths and landmarks were no longer accessible, Drew gave us a behind-the-scenes look at Asheville's recovery, while still taking us to breathtaking scenic spots. One of the highlights was our ride up to the Omni Grove Park Inn, where we enjoyed stunning views of the city and mountains, along with a delicious hot chocolate to warm up while seeing the incredible the gingerbread house displays.
The electric bikes themselves were top-notch—easy to learn and really fun to ride. They made it possible to explore areas you simply wouldn’t be able to reach on foot, by traditional bike, or even by car. The experience was exhilarating and gave us a fresh perspective on the city.
Hearing about the extensive damage from Hurricane Helene and seeing the ongoing recovery efforts firsthand was both confronting and heartwarming. Drew’s stories about how the community came together to rebuild were truly inspiring.
Asheville is bouncing back and is open for visitors!
The December weather was crisp and sunny, making it perfect for an outdoor adventure. It was around 30°F when we began our 11 a.m. tour, so be sure to bring hats, gloves (you’ll need them if the temperature is under 60°F), and a warm coat. But don’t let the chill deter you—it’s without a doubt the most scenic, fun, and exhilarating way to experience Asheville.
Thank you, Drew! We can’t wait to return and tour with you again soon.

Amazing E-bike Tour!!! - Drew was an amazing, informative tour guide. We knew Asheville would not be the same after the devastation of Hurricane Helene, but he came up with a fun and exciting tour for us. He took us all over Asheville and explained all the different parts of the city. He’s full of fun little stories and fact about different houses and structures around the city. We even got to explore the beautiful Omni Grove Park Inn and stumbled upon the displays from the National Gingerbread House competition. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour and Drew as a tour guide. It was an excellent experience!

Great Tour and Guide! - Had a great time with Drew on the tour around Asheville. The E-bikes make all the hills very easy to navigate and the route took me around all the places I wanted to see without driving, and know where to go back to explore on my own later. We saw 2 bears crossing the river and had a wild turkey run along-side us for a block. We road on bike lanes and sidewalks primarily, with some riding on quiet streets, so felt safe. After the tour, Drew texted me pictures of me from the tour which was a fun surprise!

Great first time on an e-bike! - I LOVED this tour! It was my first time on an e-bike, and it was super easy to pick up. Our tourguide was fun, and the route was nice to be able to cover so much ground outside of the city center. I just had so much fun on the bike and we received great recommendations for how to spend the rest of our day in Ashville.

An ok tour - I loved seeing the houses in the area and going up high for the view. The cemetery was interesting but the guide was new to the area and couldn’t tell us much about it. The art district had just closed when we got there. We should have started there! The bikes were great. The guide told us that Asheville was part of La. Purchase. Looked it up, and it’s not true. It was a nice tour, but I wouldn’t do it again
