By e-bike · NORWAY E-BIKE TOURS
Good e-bike tours fill up in high season and the small groups go first. Below are the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Ride through Oslo with an English-speaking guide on a modern e-bike built for city hills. In three hours, you visit Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Royal Palace, Akerselva, Mathallen area, the Opera House, Nobel Peace Center, Karl Johans Street, and Akershus Fortress. Summer tours run longer, while winter rides are shorter and use studded tires.
“Lovely ride around Oslo. Our guide Lisa was phenomenal.”
Ride through Oslo with an English-speaking guide such as Lisa, Alex, or Carlos, using an e-bike to cover Vigeland Park, the Royal Palace, Grünerløkka, the Opera House, Sørenga, Damstredet, and the fjord. The tour lasts about 2 to 3 hours, includes a helmet, and returns to Fredensborgveien 22F.
“The bikes were amazing. Super easy. The only thing is that it was a ways from the cruise ship. We took a taxi cab and it was $49 to go 7 minutes. Another couple walked it and it took 35 min for them. So just be aware.”
Ride from Geiranger up the Waterfall Route and Eagle Road with an English-speaking guide such as David. Electric assistance helps on the climb, but you still need to pedal. Stop at a fjord viewpoint for a local snack and drink, then enjoy the easier ride back. The tour includes a bike, helmet, reflective vest, and guide.
“David was great. Very knowledgable and happy to answer any questions. 2 of the tour were unable to complete it (it was a fair climb!!) but he checked on them and they were collected on the way back. Only slight criticism is that it did t really state just how strenuous it would be, even on full boost, but perhaps I just felt it more as not the fittest person around!”
Ride an electric bike through Kristiansand with a local guide such as Knut, Daniel, or Sonja. In about two hours, you’ll see Posebyen’s wooden houses, Oddernes Church, Bystranda, Fiskebrygga, Kilden, and the old quarantine station at Lasaretthøyden. The tour mixes city sights, parks, waterfront paths, and a coffee or water break.
“We loved Sonja’s tour of Kristiansand! Sonja was delightful, very knowledgeable, and easily guided our group around her charming city. We rode through the city center, many parks, and along the harbors. She shared some history and local information to help us understand Kristiansand. We’d absolutely recommend her company for tours (apparently she does other tours too, including boat tours to/around nearby islands. Wish we’d had time to go on one of those!) Don’t miss her bike tour!”
Join an English-speaking guide for a private four-hour e-bike ride from Hellesylt to Norangsdalen. You’ll pass Hellesylt Church and Hellesyl tfossen, follow the scenic Queen’s Route, stop at Lygnstøylvatnet’s submerged ruins, and take a Norwegian snack break. Motor assistance helps with the climbs, but you still need to ride confidently.
“Typisch Noorse picknic blijkt een flesje appelsap en en koekje te zijn”
Pick a length of ride, a kind of day or a way to go.
