Pick up an e-bike and helmet at Quebec Aventure Tours on Île d’Orléans, learn the basics, then ride at your own pace past villages, farms, wineries, berry stands, and river views. Tony and François are known for useful route advice, but the ride is self-guided and uses paved road shoulders.

“From the greeting at Motel d’Orléons and tutorial to the incredible journey through beautiful countryside, by very old and lovingly maintained Oléons houses, by views of Québec City, an incredible chocolate place, a winery, and many berry sellers, it was an incredible day. It was an unforgettable experience, and the electric bikes made the uphill portions a breeze, so nice when on holiday!”
