Description

Discover the historic city of Southampton from the comfort of an electric bike! Our E-Bike Classic Tour of Southampton is a fantastic 2-hour introduction to the city, with qualified bike tour guides who’ll share their extensive knowledge of Southampton and its history.

The tour takes a leisurely pace, and is suitable for experienced and inexperienced cyclists alike (age 16+). You’ll discover Southampton’s Medieval quarter, visit its docks, stand in the spot where the families of Titanic passengers waved off their loved ones, see names carved into the D-Day Wall – and much more.

What else will you discover?
Our E-Bike Classic Tour of Southampton takes you from the site of Jane Austen’s 18th birthday gala (the Dolphin Hotel) to St Mary’s Stadium (home of The Saints, aka Southampton FC). After a safety briefing from your tour guides, you’ll be led down the city’s backstreets, parks and cycle paths at a gentle pace, with frequent stops to learn about Southampton’s surprising history.

As well as the dock the Titanic departed from and the heart-rending D-Day Wall, you’ll also see the spot where RJ Mitchell developed the iconic Spitfire fighter plane; discover what’s left of Southampton’s Saxon and Tudor heritage; and even see the home where Craig David grew up! It’s a fun and intriguing way to explore the city, whether you’re a passing visitor or you’ve lived here for years.

You’ll have plenty of time to ask questions of your specially-trained tour guide, who knows the city and its history inside out. Your guide will also give you insider tips for continuing your journey of discovery.

What about those e-bikes?
We’ve joined forces with popular Southampton bike shop The Hub Cycleworks, which runs its own e-bike hire programme. For your tour, you’ll be able to choose from a selection of the latest e-bikes, including the E-Pashley Pronto, hand-built in Britain and used by Royal Mail; the amazing Two-Seater Knaap Bike (not a tandem, but instead an e-bike with a pillion!); and the supremely comfortable Electra step-through EBike.

Small print: We can’t guarantee your preferred e-bike will be available on the day. However, if you’re really keen to try a particular e-bike, please drop us a note by email or via Facebook.

Want to hang onto your e-bike for a few extra hours?
For an extra £18 per person (special rate), you can keep your e-bike until 4pm. You could explore across the River Itchen, cycle through Southampton Common, or even head up to the Golf Course, where you can see the grave of Warrior the WWI War Horse (star of our pewter pencil topper!)

Would you rather stay for Afternoon Tea?
After your discovery tour, you can relax and enjoy a traditional afternoon tea at The Mercure Dolphin Hotel any time between 12-5pm. Here’s what’s included:

    • Unlimited tea/coffee
    • Selection of sandwiches & cakes baked in the Dolphin’s kitchen
    • Freshly baked scones, clotted cream & premium jam
    • Fancy a picnic? If you’d rather eat al fresco, the Dolphin Hotel’s kitchen will pack up your afternoon tea so you can enjoy it in one of Southampton’s many parks
    • Classic Ebike Guided Tour
    • Ebike Tour & Tea: special price £30pp (Afternoon Tea alone is normally £19.95pp)
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
  • The Made in Here E-Bike Classic Tour of Southampton tour does not include entry to historic buildings or museums. However your E-Bike Tour Ticket offers you exclusive preferential rates at the city’s museums (details coming soon  for Sea City/Tudor House/Solent Sky).
  • The minimum age for the Classic Tour tours is 16. All 16-18 year olds must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
  • You will be led by fully qualified and accredited Tour Guides, supported by a Tour Assistant.
  • We have developed these tours in partnership with The Best Bike Shop in Southampton. All e-bikes are maintained to the highest standard.
  • Bikes and helmets are fully sanitised and left out of rotation for 24hrs, in compliance with the latest Covid guidelines.
  • Health and safety is top priority. We want to ensure the safety of every participant, for the enjoyment of all. There will be a safety briefing at the start of the tour, and a few minutes to familiarise yourselves with riding an e-bike. You will be required to wear a helmet throughout the tour and to sign a Disclaimer Form. Your Guide/Tour Assistant will make sure you comply with instructions; failure to do so will result in you being excluded from the tour. In the unlikely event that this occurs, no refund or ticket in lieu will be offered. The organisers’ decision is final. We will be on hand throughout the tour to make sure you feel safe, comfortable and in control, and we carry an emergency first aid kit.
  • Please arrive 15 minutes ahead of the tour’s start time of 10am. Regrettably, we are not able to wait for late arrivals and will begin the tour at the advertised time. No refund or part-refund can be offered for late arrivals or no-shows.
  • ROAD SAFETY: When cycling in traffic, please remember:
    • Cycle on the left. Especially important for our visitors from the Americas and continental Europe. Remember to give way to traffic coming from your right at roundabouts.
    • Never undertake a heavy vehicle. Do not cycle to the left of a lorry. Stay behind it to avoid lorry drivers’ blind spots.
    • Obey the highway code. As a cyclist you have as much right to be on the road as another vehicle, but you also have to obey the rules.
