Dylan and Denny were great tour guides with a lot of information of the area. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour.

Beth – United States

Great way to see more of Wellington. Dylan was a great tour guide - we really enjoyed our few hours with him! Lots of nice views of the harbor and overlooking the city. Nice bits of history and Dylan was able to answer a lot of our questions about the country in general. Definitely recommend!

Full description

Get to know Wellington like a local on this electric bike tour. Your guide will take you off the beaten path and show you the best places to snack and shop. Glide along the beach and enjoy panoramic views from a lookout point.


Meet your guide at our store in Central Wellington for a morning departure. After listening to the safety briefing, learn how to operate your electric bike and enjoy time practicing in a safe area before heading out.


Once you’re feeling comfortable, saddle up for a fun bike tour of Wellington, and follow your guide along the Wellington Waterfront.

Glide along the seafront, passing the lively port and harbor, and the beaches of Oriental Bay. Continue along the Miramar Peninsula and leave the bustle of the city behind as you cycle along the scenic coast.


Pause along the way at a local café, where you’ll have the chance to enjoy a complimentary tea or coffee, and purchase sandwiches and cakes at your own expense. Afterward, loop back towards the city.

Finally, climb up to the lookout point for an unforgettable view over Wellington, the Miramar Peninsula, and the ocean. Your tour ends in the early afternoon back in central Wellington.

Excellent tour. Jack and Jack were fun and informative. They made the whole experience interesting but also made sure that the group were safe. You get to see amazing scenery on bikes that do all the work if you want them to! This activity is a must if you are visiting Wellington.
