Full-Day Marlborough Wine Region Bike Hire

Highlights

  • Depending on the pick-up destination selected, your tour begins with a transfer from your Blenheim, Renwick, or Picton hotel to the Vine Village, where your rental bikes will be waiting for you. Equipped with a map of the wine region and wineries, set out along the Marlborough wine trail, stopping along the way to enjoy wine tasting at the many open Cellar Doors. You have between 10am and 4.30pm to explore, and with over a dozen wineries all within a 3km distance from your starting point, you’ll have plenty of opportunities for wine tasting. Many wineries offer free tastings, but a few of the bigger wineries charge a small fee (around $5). Along the way, stop for lunch (own expense) at one of the winery restaurants or tuck into a delicious pre-packed picnic (if option selected). After a full day pedaling around the vineyards, return to your starting point, where a driver will be waiting to take you back to your hotel.
