Bike tours in Canada

Since 1986, Easy Rider Tours has specialized in providing unique and exciting bike tours of Canada, the US and Europe. Our many years of in-depth experience, combined with our off-the-beaten-path routes and experienced guides, make each of cycling tours of Canada a cultural adventure on two wheels-or two feet!

Bike tours in Canada feature quiet back roads, pleasant temperatures, and refreshing ocean breezes, which make for ideal riding conditions. Every evening of our bike tours through Canada we feast on the freshest salmon, scallops, and lobster to be found anywhere! Our Maritime accommodations are never far from the sea, and feature Prince Edward Island's (PEI) friendly country inns and Nova Scotia's elegant Victorian mansions. Our routes are specially planned to celebrate the area's unforgettable natural beauty and rich history of Acadian, British, and Scottish origins.

In early summer, PEI's wild lupines bloom so profusely that the countryside resembles an Impressionistic landscape. Our July and August cycling tours in Canada are timed to make the most of the Maritimes' summer sunshine and beach weather. September brings lingering summer temperatures on Prince Edward Island, and an early glimpse of Nova Scotia's fall foliage.

Bike tours in Canada: Prince Edward Island

Join us for this relaxing week long bike tour of Canada's picturesque Prince Edward Island! Irish-green fields, stunning red cliffs, and sparkling blue waves characterize the maritime landscape in Canada's smallest province. Much of our cycling route hugs the ocean along the Blue Heron Drive, named for the statuesque birds that frequent the area. Our route follows quiet back roads over gently rolling terrain, and includes portions of the new Confederation Bicycle Trail.

Cycling tours in Canada: Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia offers such a wealth of things to see and do that one can't possibly take them all in from the seat of a bicycle! On our eight-day bike tour of Canada's "Ocean Playground," we'll bike the best of its famous coastlines and the bountiful Annapolis Valley, and explore by foot and boat where our wheels can't take us.

What to expect on a cycling tour of Canada

Our off-the-beaten-path bike tours through Canada will lead you along back roads and byways you might never have discovered on your own. Each road we pedal on our bike tours of Canada has been carefully chosen for its scenic beauty, and low traffic. Cycling days average 35-40 miles, and most days offer a choice of longer options as well. With our detailed maps and written directions, cyclists are completely free to pedal at their own pace. Short riding days or layover days are planned for those destinations where you'll want extra time off your bike to explore the beautiful Canadian seaside.

Guides for our Canadian bike tours

We consider our international team of European, Canadian, and American tour guides to be Easy Rider Tours' biggest asset! Their expertise, enthusiasm, flexibility, and humor ensure that each tour moves smoothly, both on and off the road. On bike tours of Europe, we team an American with an Irish, Portuguese, or Spanish guide, whose insight into local culture and customs adds an invaluable dimension to your vacation experience. Our guides are multilingual, trained in first aid for both people and bicycles, and average six years of experience as Easy Rider leaders.
