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!

I created this tour for people who love good food, great views and would appreciate a relaxed ride through Victoria. With nearly 2 decades of cycling experience and over half a decade living here, I’ll guide you on a route that blends the city’s top sights with my favourite local food and refreshment stops. As we ride along the city, we'll take in the stunning ocean views of Dallas Road as well as from the scenic waterfront towards Fisherman’s Wharf, a place known for its colourful floating homes and great fish & chips. We'll also visit Beacon Hill Park, home to the world’s tallest totem pole, and to the nineteenth century Craigdarroch Castle. Rest assured that we'll also pause for coffee in Cook Street Village to recharge. Let me know about any dietary preferences you might have so I can plan the best stops. E-bikes truly make riding easy, and I’ll begin with a short safety briefing and bike fitting. This tour is all about seeing Victoria at a relaxed pace and tasting what makes it special.
