For safety reasons, riders must typically be at least 14 years old, and minors must be accompanied by an adult. Minimum height requirements are strictly enforced, generally requiring riders to be between 5'0" and 5'3" tall to safely handle the e-bikes.

Most tours include the e-bike rental, a helmet, bottled water, and a snack. Convenient hotel pickup and drop-off from select Las Vegas Strip locations are also typically included, eliminating the stress of navigating to the canyon.
Closed-toe shoes are strictly required for all riders; sandals and high heels are not permitted. Because desert temperatures fluctuate drastically, it is highly recommended to wear layered clothing, sunglasses, and sunscreen.
Electric bike tours require a basic level of physical fitness and balance. These tours are not recommended for pregnant travelers, individuals with spinal injuries, or those with poor cardiovascular health due to the physical exertion required.
Tours operate subject to favorable weather conditions and may be canceled during extreme summer heat or rain. Most operators offer a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before your scheduled departure time.
Red Rock Canyon is highly popular from October through April, and e-bike tours frequently sell out during these peak months. It is highly recommended to book your tour several weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and time.
