A-ROSA has introduced electric bicycles for the first time on its A-ROSA SENA, including two bicycles for teenagers. Electric bicycles are now available on 12 vessels in its fleet, which sail the Danube, Rhine, Main, Moselle, Seine, and Rhône/Saône rivers.
In addition, A-ROSA has also introduced free electric bike rental this year, so in certain ports, guests now have the option of taking an e-bike to go for a ride independently, create their own route and explore a city or town on two wheels as they wish.
Perfect for people of all ages and fitness levels, each e-bike is equipped with a compact electric motor. Riders can choose their preferred level of assistance from several different options. It's also possible to turn the motor off completely for those who want a more challenging workout.
A helmet and lock are provided free of charge with every rental.
A-ROSA also continues to offer a wide program of guided bicycle tours for those who prefer to be guided by an expert, with more than 50 different options available throughout the 2023 season.
Jennifer Böckmann, A-ROSA's shore excursions director, comments: “Having e-bikes on board the A-ROSA SENA is brilliant news and it's great that we even have two for teenagers, as this is our multi-generational flagship.”
“As always with A-ROSA, flexibility is key, and guests now have the option of joining a guided tour or renting an e-bike independently at dedicated times when group bike tours are not being organized. Europe’s rivers are made to be explored this way, and of course, it’s a more sustainable option that fits perfectly with our ongoing focus on protecting the rivers and destinations we cruise,” he adds.
