Half-Day Napa Valley E-Bike Tour

Half-Day Napa Valley E-Bike Tour from Yountville

Napa Valley is best explored at 12 miles per hour — fast enough to cover real ground, slow enough to take everything in. The Half-Day E-Bike Tour from Napa Valley Bike Tours puts you on a high-quality pedal-assist electric bike alongside a knowledgeable local guide, riding the valley vineyards on quiet country roads and the car-free Napa Valley Vine Trail before stopping at a carefully selected local winery for a tasting.

The tour covers 10 to 12 miles of mostly flat to gently rolling terrain — gentle enough for any fitness level, and with four levels of e-bike assistance, you control exactly how hard you work. Your guide shares the history of the valley, the story behind the wineries you pass, and the vine-to-bottle process as you ride. Tours depart from the Yountville shop and finish by 1:30pm, leaving your afternoon free for whatever Napa has next.

Duration

4 hours (9:30am to 1:30pm).
