E-Bikes

Another way to stay active during a Scenic cruise is with one of our electronic-assisted bicycles. The e-bikes allow you to explore the things that appeal to you most and go deeper into the heart of your destination.

So whether it’s a new town, city or vineyard it’s always easy and fun to explore on a Scenic e-bike.
