Is Paris a good biking city?

Yes, Paris is a good city for biking. The city’s plan added 180 km of protected lanes from 2021 to 2026.

If city traffic worries you, a guided tour picks the route for you. The nooks and crannies tour keeps to flat, low-traffic side streets.

If you would rather walk, see our Paris tour guide.

E-bikes on your own

You can rent an e-bike from Vélib’, the city bike share. A 24-hour Vélib’ e-bike pass is listed at €10, and a 3-day pass at €20.

On a tour, the city highlights ride lets you choose an electric bike.

Paris Segway tour

The Paris Segway tour is a 2.5-hour ride past the Eiffel Tower and the Seine. It costs from €64 and starts at Place de Fontenoy.

A 15-minute training session comes first. The listing sets limits: riders must weigh 45 to 127 kg and be at least 155 cm tall. It does not suit pregnant women.

Booking tips for Paris bike tours

  2. Check the age limit

    The nooks and crannies tour is for ages 13 and up. The city treasures tour is for ages 10 and up.

  3. Find the start

    Some listings say the meeting point depends on the option you pick. Check your ticket the day before.

  4. You must ride a bike

    The city highlights tour says it does not suit people who cannot ride a bike. If that is you, try the Segway tour.
