Très bonne expérience

Très belle après midi en VTT électrique, nous avons pu faire une belle boucle d'une trentaine de km avec une superbe vue sur la péninsule ! Les vélos pas étaient très bien !

Très agréable

Balade sur les hauteurs d'Akaroa en VTC électrique. Nous étions 5 et les VTC étaient de qualité. Balade très agréable à recommander pour sortir du centre de la ville.

Awesome fun sore bum

What a great experience. We rode to Wainui and about half an hour up a hill on other side. Started losing bars on battery so turned back. Rode up to cemetery and hooked up to hill on way back. Took full 3hrs my butt was glad to be back at end. Would highly recommend

Self Guided Electric Mountain Bike Tour

Hi - I do have a couple of concerns about the advertised trip we took. We were a little surprised at the set up but the hand over was pretty good. Very disappointing as to how much open road riding there was - had 2 x 14 year olds with us and were very concerned about the amount of traffic and large vehicles that passed us. Yet you advertise as being very little open road riding? We actually don't know if we got to the summit - we are assuming not as there was not amazing views to be had (mind you it was grey, overcast and drizzling so that put a damper on the trip which of course is nothing to do with you). So didn't think the instructions were clear and no markings to say where to go. Would we do it again - no sorry not this advertised trip

Hi there, unfortunately if you join a tour on New Years holidays there is 10 times more traffic than usual. Usually we barely see a car. It was just the time of year and obviously the weather has affected the views. Still great to get out and have an adventure.
