Additional Information

Massive ride. Unforgettable day trip!

Departing from Marseille, we will spend the day exploring the Calanques all the way to Cassis. A wow effect is guaranteed!

The route is primarily on forest tracks (DFCI). Highlights include the Sormiou belvedere, the Luminy area, the Chalabran valley, the Oule de la Gardiole pass, and the Calanque de Port Miou.

We’ll take a nice break in Cassis to eat and enjoy a swim. Bring a picnic for this outing, though there are also restaurants and snack bars in Cassis. This adventure is designed for a sporty audience who are comfortable riding off-road. Reserved for adults, we prefer small groups. The tour may include variations and adaptations based on the group’s skill level. Group outings are conducted on comfortable, downhill electric mountain bikes. No guide needed! In this case, we provide everything from the bike to the GPS track and more.

  • The tour is guaranteed when a minimum of 3 persons per tour is reached. There is a possibility of cancellation after confirmation if this requirement is not met. In this event, you will be offered an alternative tour or full refund
  • Maximum 9 persons per guide
  • Minimum size is 140 cm, 4.6 feet
  • Child price is available for the children who do not use an Electric bike. If your child is tall enough to use our electric bikes, he will be considered as an adult and will have to pay the adult price.
  • Dress code: wear closed-toe shoes and comfortable, loose fitting clothes allowing ease of movement. No high heels or platforms, sandals or flip flops
  • May be operated by a multi-lingual guide
  • All participants’ heights must be provided at the time of booking
  • Subject to weather conditions. If canceled due to poor weather, you will be given the option of an alternative date or full refund
  • Electric bikes pedal and handle just like a regular bicycle. The electric component augments human power but does not completely replace it. It makes obstacles like hills and headwind more manageable and allows you to travel further without getting as tired.

Fun Ride with Enthusiastic Guide - Great tour! Cecil was an excellent guide: friendly, informative & enthusiastic. He provided clear and useful instructions about the bikes, repeating as necessary to ensure safety. The route was really interesting and the stop at Sormiou Beach was excellent.

Great experience and a lot of fun - We had a really great tour! It was so much fun to ride on an e-bike, it was very easy and convenient. The landscape was beautiful and the guide supported with little tricks and tipps. We also had a Stopp to take a swim at a beautiful little beach. It was an amazing experience and we would recommend the tour 100%. The staff was extremely friendly although we had some booking issues (it was our fault), thanks again for being so flexible.

So fun and beautiful (bring a swimsuit) - I had an amazing time. If you want to see the beautiful scenery that Marseille has to offer, DO THIS. Just make sure your comfortable on a bike. I had never used an e bike before but will the helpful instruction of the guide, I was able to get used to it. There are some parts of the tour where it can get a bit more adventurous because the terrain is a bit rougher. Just be confident in yourself and the equipment and you’ll be fine! Also maybe bring a snack and for ire bring water. Bring a BATHINGSUIT

Absolutely worth it! - These guys were great - fun and personable but also cautious. They “wrangled” our group of nine easily and made it fun. Absolutely worth every “penny.”

Stream route replaced by an alternative route, not refundable - Friendly welcome Unfortunately if the park is closed you will not be able to see the coves. They still offer an alternative route but do not reimburse a pity...
