I thoroughly enjoyed my bike ride with the guide Kali. She was very knowledgeable and provided an informative commentary of the landmarks, statues and artwork in Wellington. The bike was easy to operate on the flat tracks and also going up hill. Kali was able to help me with the controlling of gears. It was an added bonus of having the guided tour on my own -treated like a VIP. The gelato on the way back in Oriental Bay was a refreshing treat. I highly recommend the Guided Sightseeing Tour by Electric Bike. I now want to get myself an eBike. It was a great three hours.

Great bikes, great tour guide Jack (not Jake ;-) ) Just a short walk from the cruise ship shuttle drop off point. Overall a great tour at a much better price than the cruise companies charge.

When they say Wellington is the windiest city in the world, BELIEVE IT. The trip out was easy with a little hill at the end that provided great views. Our guides took lots of pictures for us. The way back to the meeting point was an adventure. The winds kicked up and we had to put the eBikes in turbo mode (on flat ground) just to be able to keep going. Several people had to stop and walk their bike until we turned the corner and winds died down - - some. Our guides did a good job of leading and tailing to ensure no one was left behind. The wind was so strong, even our female guide fell over from the wind. If you are not extremely comfortable on a bicycle, don't do it.

Amazing tour along the oceanfront of Wellington. Our guide Jack was very knowledgeable and friendly. Stopped frequently to share the history of different areas. We both had experience on e-bikes but would have been fun for a beginner too.
