About this tour
Explore Norfolk at your own pace on a self-guided e-bike ride along the Elizabeth River Trail. With pedal assist and a throttle, you can follow waterfront bikeways and greenways while taking in the city without breaking a sweat. Your rental includes a lock and key, plus an intercom and Bluetooth helmet for talking with your riding partners.
Set out for the Waterside District and Nauticus Maritime Center, admire the historic Battleship Wisconsin, or wander the cobblestone streets of the Freemason District. You can also make your own way to the Pagoda Garden, the eclectic Chelsea District, or the Lochhaven section of the trail, with marina views and the Hermitage Museum & Gardens. Prefer to improvise? The bike gives you the freedom to choose your own path through Norfolk’s waterfront neighborhoods.
Start from E City Hall Avenue, where parking is available nearby at MacArthur Center. Put on closed-toe shoes, pick a direction, and discover Norfolk by e-bike on a ride shaped around your interests.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.88 from 48 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Norfolk
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.5. Top 12% in Norfolk means it ranks in the top 12% of tours in Norfolk by this score.
