Our group had a wonderful time trekking through Carmel with Leslie! She provided a lot of interesting facts along the way and was always willing to take photos and entertain our questions. The tour was just the right amount of time - not too long, not too short. We really enjoyed getting to see so much of beautiful Carmel in an expeditious and fun way. Thanks for a great experience, Leslie!

The sights were awesome and we had a great time. It was a fun time! We got caught in the rain but even so it was really fun.

Michelle_L

Our guide was amazing. He took us all over Carmel and gave us a lot of information. Our only issue was one of the owners/manager. She interrupted our guide when he was giving us information and told us we could just put our own bikes away. Very rude.

Gina_F

Wonderful experience!!! Julia was an awesome guide. The views were unbelievable. The electric bikes made it possible.

joshpg

Angie was a great guide and she definitely showed us a bunch of things we would not have seen on our own. The tour was very relaxed and casual and it was great to learn about the architecture and history of the town!

The Carmel e-bike tour was really good. Angie was great. Very knowledgeable in history and architecture of Carmel. The tour is good for all skill levels. It’s an easy ride. I suggest doing the tour early in your stay as we also got good recommendations on restaurants and things to do while there.
