Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide electric bikes?
Yes, we offer e-bikes (also known as electric bikes and Pedelecs) on selected routes: Along the Danube between Ulm and Regensburg as well as in Austria, on our Bavarian Lakes tour and along the Elbe River in East Germany. We chose those routes as they include longer stretches on some days, or (a small number of) ascents. An electric bicycle makes cycling easier to those who may struggle at these sections.
Since we have a limited number of e-bikes only, please tell us with the booking or contact us beforehand. If want to learn more about the e-bikes we use, please have a look at the e-bikes page.
