Germany · E-BIKES
German summer weekends and the Christmas-market weeks sell out early, and the best e-bike tours go first. Below are the 10 to get into the diary now, what each includes and where they differ.
Meet your English speaking guide beneath the TV Tower in Alexanderplatz, choose a comfortable city cruiser, and ride to Berlin’s major sights. Expect stops at Checkpoint Charlie, Bebelplatz, Brandenburg Gate, and Museum Island, with history on Prussia, the Third Reich, and the Berlin Wall. E-bikes may be mixed with standard bikes.
“Tor was amazing. we were family of 6 people. wonderful explanations and great tour. Highly recommended.”
Spend 210 minutes on an e-bike tracing Berlin's Wall history and central sights with a German-speaking guide, including Ference. Ride in a small group of up to eight from Bornholmer Strasse through Mauerpark, Bernauer Strasse, Mitte, the Reichstag, Brandenburg Gate, Gendarmenmarkt, Unter den Linden, and Alexanderplatz. Bikes, locks, and guiding are included.
“Super fin tur og god guide. mega fine el cykler”
Ride from Alexanderplatz through Berlin’s major historic sites on an electric bike, stopping at the Reichstag, Brandenburg Gate, Bebelplatz, Holocaust Memorial, and Checkpoint Charlie. Guides such as Sam, Thor, Michelle, and Neil bring the city’s 20th-century story to life. The flat route suits beginners, but you must ride independently.
“Neal was our Tour Guide. He was EXCELLENT! So knowledgeable about history, I was very impressed. His guiding us through the streets was always safe and kept his eye on us. It was about 5 1/2 hour tour with a stop for a great lunch, had the leberkase bbq w/ roll. It was an Electric Bike that was super fun to drive and easy to maneuver. I am 60 years old and it was quite do able for me! Tip these guys they earn it! Highly recommend this company, very friendly and helpful. Yes, I wore a helmut which they supply.”
Join a German- or English-speaking guide for a four-hour small-group e-bike ride from Dresden Neustadt. You’ll pedal through the Schönfelder Highlands and Dresden Heath, stop at Wachbergschänke for broad city views, pass the Dresden TV tower, then return beside the Elbe. Bikes, helmets, and cycle bags are included.
“Die Fahrradtour war phänomenal. Dank der guten Führung war die Fahrradtour ein ereignisreiches Erlebnis. Danke”
Ride Munich’s major sights on a comfortable four-hour electric bike tour with an English-speaking guide. You’ll see Königsplatz, the Führerbau, royal boulevards, the English Garden surfers, the Chinese Tower beer garden, the Isar, and Viktualienmarkt. Guide Rob G is known for clear historical storytelling and careful riding.
“Our tour guide, Rob G, made our trip to Munich meaningful. He took us to historical places and provided the important history and meaning of each location. He is indeed a charming man. Rob G kept us safe along the 4 hour tour and made the experience memorable. I rate this event far better than our tour of Neuschwanstein castle. The company provided comfortable and well equipped e-bikes and offered us helmets and even gloves . We absolutely would repeat the tour. The cost is exceptionally a great value. Again, thanks for providing great people like Rob, that have great knowledge and passion for showing visitors this fine city!”
Choose a two-hour guided e-bike ride in English, German, or Spanish, or rent an e-bike to explore Frankfurt on your own. Pick a city route, a Green Belt section, or an orchard and cider outing. Bikes, helmets, water, and vehicle support are included. Groups are limited to 10 people.
“It was very nice to follow guide by bike to all the places in Frankfurt without worry anything. My guide was very kind.”
Pick up a 28-inch trekking bike or Bosch e-bike in Frankfurt’s Martin May Str. 7 courtyard. Staff adjust the saddle and handlebars to your height, then share route ideas and a city map. You get 24 hours to explore independently, with optional helmet and smartphone holder add-ons.
Pick up a standard bicycle or e-bike at Unlimited Biking near Alexanderplatz and keep it for 24 hours from collection. You plan the route yourself, wear the included helmet, and return the bike to the same shop during opening hours. Guides such as Thor and Julien are associated with separate guided rides, not this self-guided rental.
“La experiencia es muy buena pero no merece la pena reservarla con Viator. Los precios son mejores reservándolo allí, yo alquile bicicletas tres dias, por Viator pagué 18€ por día y en la tienda de Berlín hacían descuentos importantes por alquilar días sucesivos. Realmente me sentí estafada.”
Pick up an e-bike or mountain bike at Bike Füssen and spend up to nine hours exploring Füssen and the Allgäu countryside independently. You get a modern rental bike, English or German assistance, and the freedom to set your own route. Chris may be your friendly contact at pickup.
“The bikes were perfect other than one bike tire was low on air. We stopped at another location of Fussen ebike and used a pump to fill with air. We were disappointed that you cannot ride up to both castles. No fault of the bike rental company.”
See Cologne from the saddle on a 210-minute guided e-bike tour with Colonia Aktiv. You’ll ride from Eigelstein and Agnes Quarter to the Rhine, Cathedral, Old Town, Südstadt, University, MediaPark, and Rheinpark. English and German guides lead the route, with helmets, rain ponchos, and bikes included.
“Fantastic tour of Cologne with our guide Tobias. We learned a lot about the history and felt very safe on the tour. Highly recommend this tour.”
A city, a river, a castle ridge, a brewery.
