The experience

If you've got a free afternoon in Charlottetown and want to cover more ground than walking allows, an e-bike tour trades the pavement for quiet streets and the Confederation Trail. Your guide steers you through the historic downtown core, then out into residential neighbourhoods and onto the trail itself: the route mixes city landmarks with the kind of pace that lets you actually see them instead of rushing between stops.

The e-bikes are maintained after every use and built to fit different comfort levels, so the ride adjusts to you rather than the other way around. You're not pedalling hard. The electric assist handles the work, which is why the tour suits all physical fitness levels. Two and a half hours is long enough to reach the Confederation Trail and back without feeling rushed, and short enough to fit the rest of your day.

What’s included

• Use of a professionally maintained e-bike suited to your comfort level.
