Electric Bike Tours San Diego

Now that summer is in full swing in San Diego, it's a perfect time to get outside and explore the sights on one of our fun ELECTRIC BIKE TOURS! 

It's no secret that San Diego is super scenic but if you want to experience some of our more amazing views, there's no way around it. You'll have to head up some hills and if you're on a bike, Electric is the way to go. Not only are they super easy to operate, it's extremely enjoyable and instead of dreading and avoiding those big hills, you'll be taking them on... one by one, with a big smile on your face.  


Prior to launching our Electric Bike Tours, I must admit that I wasn't totally sold. As Marc knows, I'm a creature of habit plus I love my reliable and trusty Trekster, so why change anything? But the truth is, I would often avoid hills so without realizing it, I was missing out on some amazing views.  My other beef?  I like moving my legs as I like to get a workout. I had the impression that with these Electric bikes, I would never move my legs because the motor was doing all the work.  

It wasn't until I hopped on one, that I realized I was wrong! With the Pedal Assist feature, you're always moving your legs. The Pedal Assist simply helps you but you still need to move your legs. In fact, the only time I didn't move my legs is if a hill was truly too big for me and I needed some major help. In that case, I would simply turn on the throttle feature.  Because I like to get a workout, I didn't use the throttle version that much but it was nice knowing that it was there, if I ever needed it! 

In celebration of California reopening, we are now offering Public "Discover Secret La Jolla Electric Bike tours." Check out our website for dates but we still have room on June 17 & June 19!

Virtual Team Building Events

2021. If you're like us, you're probably scratching your head and asking "Whoa, how did THAT happen?"  

While there's no question that COVID has turned our world upside down, it also gave many of us the opportunity to Pause, Reset and Reinvent. That certainly was the case for us. When COVID first hit, we had to quickly pivot and transition many of our "in person" Team building programs (such as our popular Scavenger Hunts and Game shows) to "Virtual" offerings. And along the way, we got to develop some new Team building programs like our Creative Icebreakers. So FUN!  

But here's what was especially cool - and totally unexpected. Prior to starting our Team building and Tour business back in 2003, Darlynne was in the Television News industry for more than 21 years. During that time, she was an Anchor/Reporter, Writer and Producer, so she's very comfortable with anything that's video related. Who would have known that years later, those Television skills would play a major role in this new Virtual world? Thanks to Darlynne's TV background, we were able to create some very unique and ORIGINAL Livestream programming, which has been super exciting for us!   


As a Team building company, we are passionate about Health and Wellness in the workplace. And when we combined that passion with Darlynne's TV and Storytelling skills, our Development Team was able to create a whole array of amazing, interactive programming.  

Over the last several months, we've produced a number of Livestream shows for the corporate world, all ranging in topics from Employee Wellness, Healthy Nutrition Habits and Smart Money tips. But our favorite show topic has allowed us to "lean in" to our "Tour Guide" roots.  

It's called Best of San Diego  and it's all about showcasing secret San Diego spots - something very close to our heart.    

In a time when we're all working remotely and staying closer to home, it's easy to feel disconnected. Which is why these Livestream Programs have been amazing because it helps Employers EMPOWER their team, whether it's teaching them how to manage their money, eat healthy OR get outside and explore cool San Diego spots that are off-the-beaten path! 


If you'd like to learn more about our new Livestream ORIGINAL Programming, let's connect! In the  meantime, enjoy these videos: Livestream Topic Shows. 

Stay safe & Happy Travels!
