“We had a blast in Ottawa biking and using e-bikes from this place! Enjoyed four hours of beautiful trails along the Rideau Canal, stopped for various activities and now we are looking forward to do it again. The service was fantastic, Konrad and the team answered all the questions we had, prepared the bikes and adjusted them for each individual needs. They were awesome! Highly recommend to book in advance and try biking in Ottawa. I think just skating on Rideau Canal can compete with the experience as a traveller through the city. Thank you for a great trip!”
