Our group of four took an E-Bike tour thru Acadia National Park with Lee and it was so interesting and fun. Lee’s passion and knowledge for the geography, wildlife and history made our tour so memorable! We HIGHLY recommend this tour company AND LEE!

I would highly recommend giving them a try if you're in the area!

Had the pleasure of doing the harbor tour with Chris this morning. He is very passionate about the sport, and had a lot of knowledge to share with us about paddle boarding and the best places to safely paddle around here, as well as information about the natural and human history of the island. It was a chill, beautiful, and fun paddle. Especially loved seeing/experiencing the crazy tidal changes from on the water. Paddlers of all skill levels from beginner to pro can enjoy and learn from their tours, I would highly recommend giving them a try if you’re in the area!

We had a wonderful time thanks to everyone at Acadia Stand Up & E-Bike! It was so easy to make our reservations. My husband and I had never ridden e-bikes before. The staff was so helpful. Since it was our first time we decided on going for half day rentals. The bikes ran and worked well. The carriage roads were so beautiful to ride through. Many thanks for a great adventure!

We had a great experience with Acadia Stand Up!

We had a great experience with Acadia Stand Up! My husband & I did the half day ebike rental. Their location was great, right near the fire/police station so there was lots of parking available. Kyle helped us get set up with the bikes, he was so nice and really knowledgeable. He gave us directions to the carriage roads from town, and recommended a path so we could hit all of the sights we wanted to see. The ride was SO fun! The bikes were easy to use, and the batteries lasted our entire ride. Even with the rain at the end of our ride, it was one of our favorite parts of our trip to Bar Harbor. Acadia Stand Up definitely has the best prices in town, if you’re thinking about renting ebikes- do it !
