Take a ride on the Island Solar Pedal Bus throughout downtown Halifax to visit some of Nova Scotia's finest restaurants, pubs, distilleries, and most scenic historic venues!
The FIRST pedal bus tour in Atlantic Canada (along with Charlottetown, PEI), Ride Solar's unique tour offers up to 18 passengers an opportunity to pedal your way to various pubs, restaurants, and unique sight-seeing/historic locations in the birthplace of Canada. This four wheeled "bike" is powered by up to 12 people pedaling (minimum of 8 required to move the bike) with additional seating for a total of 18 passengers and has an electric assist motor to make it very easy to pedal. We can even accommodate one wheelchair! The power to the electric assist motor, all instrumentation, TV, lights, sound system, & refrigerator are powered by 1kW of solar panels on the roof. Our pedal bus is SAFE. It is CE approved, legal to be driven on the roads, moves at slow speeds, has a grab bar to hold, and every seat has a seatbelt for safety. Passengers may be required to wear helmets supplied by Ride Solar at no extra cost. The bar (table) height is also adjustable to suit the best height for the passengers. Green, clean, fun, & safe - just like Nova Scotia! 3 HR "SIPS & SITES" TOUR 2PM DAILY MAY - OCT INDIVIDUAL SEATS FOR $69/ADULT ($59/CHILD & SENIOR) OR THE PEDAL BUS IS YOURS FOR $1142 (Save $100 based on 18 people) (MINIMUM OF 8 PEOPLE/TRIP) Our "Sips & Sites" combines something for everybody: Delicious Food, wine/beer, rum tastings, dessert, exercise with stunning views, and Halifax Harbour historic sites & venues all in one tour! 1) We begin our tour at 1655-1707 Lower Water St. (in front of the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic across from the Halifax Distilling Company) where passengers will go through a brief introduction to the Pedal Bus, get their helmets, and get prepped for their excursion along the Halifax waterfront. 2) From here, we will hop on the Pedal Bus and travel to Murphy's on the Water, for amazing seafood and craft beer/soda or wine. 3) After fueling up (with delicious food, not gasoline) we begin the longest leg of our journey up and over the historic Halifax Citadel (Citadel Hill) overlooking Halifax Harbour with fantastic scenic views of the city en route to Hopyard. 4) At Hopyard, we will stop for some unique and delicious "tapas style" food along with extensive beers on tap + vinyl records for your listening pleasure.
