(For guests 16 and older) Long sandy beaches, rocky coastal crags, sprawling seaside mansions, classic New England countryside, stunning historical architecture — this tour is for intrepid spirits who want to go the distance and see everything.
Along this 17-mile loop you'll venture a little bit farther afield than most while still visiting the must-see highlights of the Kennebunks.
And don't worry; this isn't a whirlwind tour. Your guide will make sure to allow plenty of time to stop, learn about local history, dip your toes in the ocean, and take pictures.
This is a true e-bike adventure, traversing a variety of environments with lots of opportunities to cruise and enjoy the ride. Your well-maintained class 2 e-bikes make it possible without working up too much of a sweat.
Never ridden an e-bike before? No worries. If you can ride a regular bicycle, you'll be fine. Your patient and personable guide will demonstrate everything you need to know before the tour begins.
