One of the best experiences we’ve had! - This was an awesome experience start to finish! Isaac picked us up right next to the boat and we headed up the mountain. We got great instructions on how to use the e-bikes and headed out with the lunch, snack and water that was provided. We had lunch at the summit and had the whole thing to ourselves. The only item I would want people to know is that the last 2 km are a little rustic/rough and we started to question if we had gone the right way but we stuck with Issac’s instructions and it all worked out. I would definitely recommend this trip, the views were spectacular!

Great ride near Wellington - A litlte confusing getting off the ship as we didn't know they could pick us up right there on the pier but the staff were VERY responsive and helpful. The bikes were great and the ride to the starting point was good. Beautiful trip through the trail, across the swinging bridge and along the river. Overall it was a really fun day and we would highly recommend it.

Memorable bike ride - The scenery was amazing. We did e-bikes. Even tho it was "Windy Wellington", the ride was amazing. Lunch was delicious. Issac was our driver/guide, he was informative and helpful. The trail is very rough and not really good for bike beginners. Be sure to remove your your sunglasses before entering the tunnels!! Would do this again!!
