One thing to note though, this is not a scooter tour , apparently they no longer use scooters, & replaced it with E-bikes. Once you get to the meeting place , it will be explained to you & will be offered a refund if you chose not to use e-bikes. Personally I was glad it was an e-bike & not a Scooter. With the E-bikes I got to feel the physical thrill & have more freedom in maneuvering, exploring & experiencing more roads & places. And I feel…”
