Echo Sports Tours is a bike rental and tour outfit in Québec City. Its location on a riverside cycle path is a big part of the appeal: you pick up a bike and are on a protected route almost immediately. The reviews are close to unanimous in their praise.
Staff and the owner take time to fit bikes and helmets properly, including for children, and give route advice on distance and elevation without upselling. Standard bikes can often be rented on a walk-in basis, and e-bikes are available too, though one visitor suggests booking ahead if you want one. Bikes are described as well tuned and good value.
The standout is the guided ride to Montmorency Falls, roughly 27 km there and back on bike paths. Guides get warm mentions for their historical knowledge and for keeping mixed groups, including families on regular bikes alongside e-bikers, encouraged and moving. There is also a shorter guided history tour of the city by e-bike.
This is a cycling operation rather than a paddling one, so don't expect boat or board rentals. With so few complaints in the reviews, the main tip is to book tours and e-bikes in advance during busy periods.
