Overview

Biking is a great way to visit wineries and explore Hawke’s Bay. With this tour, explore more than 10 miles (16 kilometers) of scenic, bike-friendly paths at your own pace, stopping at some of the region’s finest wine producers along the way. Opt for an available wine purchase pick-up service, so you won’t have to lug bottles around on a bicycle.

Karen coordinated and adjusted plans so we would get back to our ship in good time. Our bus drivers were encouraging and also generous with their time adding "bits and pieces" to share and show us more of the land. The bike tour was breathtakingly beautiful!! Exhilarating and on standard bikes, they gave just enough of a challenge to make it fun. You should do this one!

Fantastic. Well worth doing

Gerry_S, Mar 2024

The cycling on the elec bikes made the day visiting the different wineries and touring the cycle routes so enjoyable. Highly recommend

Bikes and wine to set yourself free.

Guy_S, Mar 2024

The wineries we stopped at were great. Doubtful you could make all six wineries having tastings. Wineries are too slow to service. We had e-bikes and varied terrain. Great biking experience. Te Awanga had good pepperoni pizza. Would do it again.

A beautiful bike hike and wine tour in one.

Jorie_D, Feb 2024

We had a beautiful and fun time biking around the rural country-side going from winery to winery! We were blessed with great weather as well. Near the last half of the route a river mouth met up with the bay and we saw many great birds, including the Royal spoonbill! Our driver Andy was a great resource and explained the route fairly well- but make sure to pay attention to the route, have a well-charged phone to assist with directions, and bring plenty of sunscreen and a refillable water bottle! We were able to have a glass of wine at 2 wineries and tastings at 2 other wineries for a total of 4 wineries, out of 8 on the route. I would highly recommend the ebike vs standard bike for the assisted pedaling along the many dirt paths and the fairly long route.

Perfect day

Nick_Y, Feb 2024

It was such a great day. Roger did a great job getting us on our way and tips to make it an extra special day.

Captivating!

Great atention, perfect bikes and planned tour. Everything was very well put together. The map they give was very clear. And the road is wonderful, quiet and safe.

Great experience

Michelle_E, Jan 2022

We loved this experience and would definitely do it again. Loved having E bikes and the flexibility of which vineyards to visit or not. Recommend booking lunch ahead of time as we did and let the venue know you are on the bike ride so they are okay with you arriving a little early or late. The pick up and drop off by the team was great….

Response from Host, Jan 2022
