Excellent day on the bike. Company was well organized and everything was as planned. I did half day. Highly recommend if you have interest to ride and see some sights on the trail.

Self guided bike tour from Arrowtown to Gibbston

Carolyn_W, Oct 2025

A really fun day out. The bikes and helmets were great. Don’t expect a lot of information from the tour guide. They really just drop and pick you up. The track was wet so we got splattered in mud. There are no baskets on the bike so a back pack was useful. There were two points where we were confused about our direction but we got there in the end. All in all I’d highly recommend this fun half day tour. We loved the winery and the incredible scenery along the way

Great half day ride..

Amazing Half Day Cycle

Jonathan_C, Dec 2024

Amazing trip! Superbly organised and explained. Staff are super friendly and helpful. The track is amazing and easy enough on an analogue bike. Steve was such a hero.

Beautiful scenery

Ivy_P, Apr 2024

Beautiful scenery. Would’ve been good to know ‘parts’ of the track that we should be aware of that’s curved and next to a cliff, especially with a 6 year old. Only recommended for younger kids who are used to riding 14km in a span of 2.5 hrs, as no electric bikes available.
