Streets of San Francisco Bike Tours

San Francisco is View City, and with our ebikes, we can take full advantage. Our Majestic ebike tour visits the neighborhoods and parks we love but aren’t easily accessible on ordinary bikes. Our ebikes have plenty of power and battery capacity to propel us through the city and over the hills, and on this big 20-mile loop, we visit quintessential SF neighborhoods, the city’s most beautiful parklands, and the stunningly rugged Pacific coast. We also get the best views of the Golden Gate Bridge (assuming Karl the Fog isn’t covering it).

We don’t worry about hills because our ebikes help us do the climbing. This tour has opened up so many new places for us to visit. We couldn’t be more excited to show you around electric-style.

Highlights

• Hayes Valley: Our start and finish. A local’s favorite with boutique shops, cafes, and a busy park on sunny days.
• Alamo Square: Home to the Painted Ladies and one of the most iconic views in the city.
• Panhandle: The handle to Golden Gate Park’s “pan,” this narrow park boasts redwood, cypress, and pine trees.
• Richmond: Sleepy residential avenues with untrendy, delicious food.
• Presidio: Former military complex turned national park, the Presidio is filled with historic brick buildings and quiet forests, all in the city limits.
• Golden Gate Bridge: The one, the only. Note: We get up close, but do not ride on the bridge. You should save that for another day.
• Sunset: Mellow residential hood stretching out to Ocean Beach. A calmer and quieter San Francisco.
• Golden Gate Park: The city’s ultimate treasure, it is where we go to run, ride, play, and think.
• Haight-Ashbury: The famous 1960’s hippie hangout and former home to the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, and more.
• Castro: Vibrant, colorful, and rooted in activism, the Castro is sure to put a smile on your face.
• Mission: Dynamic neighborhood with Latino roots and an abundance of historic murals.

A ride over the Golden Gate Bridge is unlike any other. It really doesn’t get any more picturesque: parklands, beaches, views of the city, and a descent down to the beautiful bayside town of Sausalito all await. And of course, the main event: the ride over California’s most famous landmark, the Golden Gate Bridge: ocean to your left, San Francisco Bay to your right, and the Marin headlands directly ahead.

The tour starts in Fisherman’s Wharf and finishes in Sausalito, on the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge. Once the tour finishes in Sausalito, guests are encouraged to have lunch in Sausalito and bring their bikes on the ferry back to San Francisco. The Blue & Gold Fleet ferry disembarks in Fisherman’s Wharf, about 5 minutes from our starting location. You can use the bikes to explore the rest of the day; bikes just need to be back at the shop before closing time.

Our Golden Gate tour minimizes the hills and uses the gentlest ascents possible. This tour is designed for anyone comfortable on a bike with a modest level of fitness. There are exactly two hills on this tour: (1) a short hill over Fort Mason and (2) the climb up to the bridge. If any of our tour guests prefer to walk up those hills, we’re all for it.

We don’t stop for lunch on this tour, so we encourage you to bring a snack. If you’re taking the morning tour, consider eating lunch in Sausalito after the tour finishes.

• The Golden Gate Bridge: Built in 1937 and almost 1.7 miles long, the bridge is and always will be San Francisco’s most famous icon.
• Sausalito: Small and scenic, Sausalito has splendid views of San Francisco, delicious lunch spots, and beautiful bayside homes.
