5.00The e bikes were such a fun way to sight see and travel between wineries along the way. The team at going blue were fantastic communicators and picked us up from the end winery of our choice. The best experience!!

5.00Loved this experience! The scenery was beautiful and particularly loved the river views and the suspension bridges and being able to stop wherever we wanted to take photos! Then we got to the stretch with the wineries which was great to be able to go to several of those and enjoy them at our own pace. (The wineries also happen to be later in the route which is great). We did e-bikes which made it easy! Most people were going in the same direction we were (downhill from Arrowtown to Gibbston) so there was very little traffic. Highly recommend!
