Bike Rentals
These guys were amazing. We decided to rent bikes last minute with a group of 6. They made sure we had what we needed and directed us on places to see. I would highly recommend them for their professionalism and kindness.

“It’s such a fun experience!! The staff are sooo friendly and helpful, and they provide the best bikes! We rented for two hours. Bikes came with helmets, locks and a cute little homemade map that shows you just where to go. We had so much fun. Highly recommend this place!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute Perfection!
We had an incredible experience at Lighthouse Bikes! We rented three bikes to spend the day exploring the area and riding out to see the main Portland Head Light,
The owner and all the workers were incredibly welcoming and super friendly from the moment we arrived. The bikes themselves were fantastic—almost brand new, very well-maintained, and perfectly comfortable for a family ride. If you're looking for a fun and easy way to see the sights, this is the place to go. Great, great experience—we absolutely loved it! Highly recommend!July 2026

Bike Tours
Our bike tour with Leah was one of the highlights of our trip! She was incredibly knowledgeable about Portland, but what made the experience so special was how warm, fun, and welcoming she was the entire time. She made everyone feel comfortable right away, and it honestly felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a friend. The route was well planned, the pace was perfect, and Leah shared so many interesting local spots and stories we never would have found on our own. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and that energy made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Portland!“

My husband and I did a guided tour with Erin, and it was certainly a highlight of our trip to Portland! The route was scenic and beautiful, and Erin provided a lot of fun information and made the ride so enjoyable! This is an activity we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting!!!

All I can say is WOW! This tour and the staff are top notch! Our guide, Erin was so knowledgeable and she was very understanding that I am not the strongest rider! She was patient and even modified a few things for my skill level. We also enjoyed Paul, a new guide who joined us. This is small group bike tour (we actually had a private one!) that takes you on a few main roads and a gorgeous bike path to see beautiful views of the harbor, the coastline and several lighthouses! It's about 2-2.5 hours of riding with plenty of stops for rest, water and photos. If you're coming from a cruise, you may want to Uber over and back. It's walkable but it's about 40 minutes! We got off our ship a bit late due to the immigration process and the staff was very accommodating and communicative! Five stars all the way!

Bike Repairs/Service
“Five-Star Service and Peace of Mind
I visit Lighthouse Bikes every summer as a stop on my rides—usually to say hello to the owner and chat about her latest bike adventures. This year, after hearing her speak highly of the shop’s mechanics, I decided to book my annual tune-up with them.
I’m writing to say: they absolutely delivered!
Not only did the service live up to the praise, but the mechanic also went above and beyond by identifying a recall on the crankset of my bike—a major safety issue that had been missed in tune-ups at another shop for the past two years. Their attention to detail, skill, and professionalism ensured not just a smooth ride, but also my safety.
A heartfelt thank you to the Lighthouse Bikes team. I highly recommend their service department to anyone looking for expert, trustworthy care for their bike.”
