Depending on the pick-up destination selected, your tour begins with picking up your bikes at either The Vine Villages or the Blenheim CBD base.

You have between 9:30am and 4:30pm to explore, and with over a dozen wineries all within a 1.8-mile (3-kilometer) distance of The Vines Village, you’ll have plenty of opportunities for wine tasting.

Really well organised! Drivers friendly, knowledgeable and on time 😊
Visited 5 vineyards and had a fab time. Really great welcome at Wairau River cellar from Deb & Sue. Glorious scenery, excellent e-bikes, relaxing lunch stop at Boomtown Brewery, and cool shade at Cloudy Bay. Great day!

The team is very friendly, and very flexible with special requests. They were very helpful in providing a good understanding of the use of equipment, and guiding us thru the self guided paths. I would totally use them again.

We had such a wonderful day cycling around the beautiful Marlborough wineries. The best way to see this amazing area & sample lots of delicious wines . From pick up to drop off the day was perfect.

This was a great experience and well run. Picked up and dropped back to our accommodation by a friendly team, great bikes, clear maps and information. The cycling was flat and traffic free and vineyards were welcoming, with very affordable tasting flights and some lovely food options. And wine that we bought was collected for us! Highly recommend.

This was a highlight to our 3 week holiday in New Zealand. An absolute must if visiting Blenheim, no better way to spend the day, and to be picked up from our hotel and dropped off! There was no stress involved at all, the entire day was a 10/10 experience.

Very convenient with hotel pickup in Blenheim. We had time to visit 5 wineries (All excellent) Bike was in great shape and very comfortable. We were given a map which was very easy to follow. Wonderful way to gently and safely navigate the wine region. Friendly staff,extremely accommodating. Highly recommend it.

You should inform people that the bike shop is far.!!
The bike cost was $30
BUT !!
The ride to the shop cost $250
This is ridculous.!!!
So I didn’t go , and asking my money back!!!

This was the highlight of our entire NZ holiday! We went in September and as a result some of the cellar doors are not yet open but the guide informed us of those so we knew to avoid them. Most of the area is completely flat which makes the cycling really easy and many of the cellar doors are very close to each other. I would highly recommend going to Giesen for their platter lunch as it was amazing!! We managed to fit in 7 cellar doors during the trip and as a result our cycling was a bit wobbly on the way back!
Meredith E, Feb 2016
Easy pick up and drop off, simple to navigate the area and Karen was incredibly knowledgeable on which wineries would suit us best. It is pretty much all flat so easy riding even after your 7th vino! Loved Huia winery and the string sustainability commitments made by vineyards in the region.

Fun bike ride through the vineyards where you can fill in which shop you want to visit and how much you want to taste.
