About this experience

Fremantle must be the most perfect location for an electric bike tour in Australia, with
an abundance of bike lanes, leafy streets and history. The other thing about Fremantle is
that it is relatively spread out, so to see all of the sites and get an appreciation of the
area you really need a bike.
Perth Electric Bike Tours is run in conjunction with our shop Perth Electric Bikes, right in
the heart of Freo at the corner of Adelaide and Point streets. This means that we have an
a large selection of new and perfectly maintained electric bikes and all the appropriate
safety gear. Riding an electric bike is as easy as riding a regular bike, but without the
effort, any level of fitness can do this tour.
