Geneva Panoramic E-bike Tour United Nations Square and Old Town

Disappointing

As a veteran of e-bike tours around the world, this was very disappointing. The tour guide did not provide fundamentals for a safe tour: 1) introducing herself to us, 2) giving us an overview of the tour, 3) reviewing the safety fundamentals and driving customs in busy Geneva, 4) reviewing hand signals for turns, slowing down and stopping, and 5 ) the safe operation of the e-bikes. She had the historical knowledge of each stop but mumbled and didn’t speak clearly to the group. She was more of a caretaker than a tour guide. Add to this the high cost for this two hour tour and the value was very poor indeed.

Disappointing value and safety concerns

I recently went on this bike tour in Geneva, and unfortunately, I left feeling quite disappointed, especially given the price point. The primary issue was the lack of organization and information. For a guided tour, I was expecting to learn a lot about the local history and landmarks. Instead, our guide would say things like 'the oldest house in Geneva is on the next street' without actually identifying which building she was talking about. The equipment was in poor condition. My boyfriend’s bike seat was held together with duct tape, and there was no assistance from the guide to help anyone adjust their bikes for height or safety before setting off—we were simply handed bikes and told to go. The safety protocols were also concerning. The guide was chaotic on the road, frequently cutting into traffic abruptly. She also had a habit of leaving people behind who were still in the process of putting on their helmets or getting ready, rather than ensuring the whole group was prepared. Overall, I didn't feel that the quality of the experience or the equipment matched the cost of the tour. I’d recommend looking into other options for exploring the city by bike.

Our tour guide Carol was...

Our tour guide Carol was terrible. She was more like a German general than a tour guide. She never had the best interest of the group in mind. We visited her predetermined stops but received limited information about what we were seeing, and she was not at all warm or helpful. I would not recommend taking a tour with her at all.

Not Great

We have taken bike tours all over the world and mostly have been fantastic. This one was the worst. Guide was late. Ate into our tour time. However, the tour was rushed and gave VERY little interesting information or history of such a beautiful and historic European city. Rushed from one main site to the next and there was nothing we couldn't get off of a quick Google search. Expected much more considering the cost of this tour, as compared to many others we have taken, was 2-3X as expensive. Not worth it at all. Sad actually.

Great ride

Lovely bike ride even for those who do not normally exercise. If it’s hot bring water! Felt very safe.

A great way to see a lot in a short time

Easy meet up and short walk to pick up bike. Operator was great, safety conscious when leading. Good itinerary to key spots I would not have gotten to on foot in 2 hours. A great way to see the city in a short time. It had been a while since I'd been on a bike, but it really is like riding a bike. The electric assist at key spots really helped. For most of the ride was we were on bike lanes or parkways. At no time did I feel unsafe. Was ready for a cold beer after! Our day was slightly overcast which made it not too sweaty. If sunny, would recommend bring water and sunscreen. Bike helmet provided. Bike had a place to strap a bag if needed. Would recommend!
