Good to know
This works well for anyone who can balance and pedal a bike but isn't confident on a road bike or doesn't want to self-navigate. The e-motor means you won't struggle with hills or distance. It's accessible for a wide age range if you arrange child seating beforehand (contact the operator directly on +61 473 635 865 to discuss infant seats, child seats, toddler seats, or tag-along options). Not suitable if you have serious cardiovascular concerns. The route is flat and paved, so weather and water conditions are less of a barrier than on coastal boat tours. Public transport is nearby if you're not driving. Tour includes helmet and e-bike; bring sunscreen and water.
