Hello and bonjour! My name is Mike, and I can't wait to show you my beautiful home of Victoria, BC, from the best point of view—an electric bike! While I spend most of my days working on a computer, I realized my true passion is being outdoors, meeting new people, and sharing the incredible sights of this city. That's why I started offering e-bike tours. As an avid cyclist for more than 15 years, I’ve explored countless roads and trails, even biking across the United States and France in my younger years. After moving to Victoria, I began leading e-bike tours in 2022 and have loved every minute of helping guests experience the city like a local. There's simply no better way to explore Victoria's charming streets, scenic waterfront, and lush gardens. The electric assist makes cruising up hills a breeze, so you can focus on the fun and the scenery, not on breaking a sweat. I've had a fantastic time guiding visitors, including many travellers arriving on cruise ships. I'm very familiar with ship schedules and know how to create a memorable experience that gets you back to the port with time to spare. My tours are all about connection; small groups, flexible routes, and a pace that fits your interests. Whether you’re into history, photography, or just soaking up the atmosphere, I’ll tailor the ride to what makes you happiest. And if you love food as much as I do, I’ll point you toward (or take you to) some of my local favourites, from legendary fish and chips to classic Canadian poutine and craft brews. Fun fact: Victoria has more restaurants per capita than any other city in Canada! From sunlit waterfront rides to evening tours under the glow of city lights, my goal is to make your time in Victoria fun, personal, and unforgettable. Let's get out there and explore together!

Discover Victoria in style on an electric bike led by a passionate cyclist with almost 2 decades of experience. As a local expert who's explored every corner of the city, I can guarantee that its scenic bike paths make exploring easy, fun and safe. As we ride together, we’ll visit top landmarks including the world’s tallest totem pole and the historic Craigdarroch Castle, plus beautiful parks and ocean viewpoints along the way. If you’d like, we could also stop for a bite at one of Victoria’s many great restaurants to try local favourites like fish and chips or classic Canadian poutine. Gathering at the Pedego store, we’ll get fitted with bikes, helmets, and review safety info. Don’t worry if it’s your first e-bike experience; I’ll be sure to provide a short training session before we start. Some cycling experience is recommended, though, and riders must be at least 5'2".
