The tour staff were very helpful and informative. The bikes were well maintained and made the travelling between vineyards nice and easy. The vineyards were easy to find and offered good wines and a great experience.

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.

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.
