Queenstown by E-Mountain Bike

5.00We had an incredible e-mountain bike tour with Shay! I can’t recommend highly enough the incredible experience that you will have with Shay and his Ride to the Sky team in Queenstown, NZ. The topography in Queenstown is amazing, and seeing it while peddling through the mountains and around the lake is breathtaking! The equipment was top notch, and Shay was an awesome guide! If you aren’t a competent bike rider, the experience may be intimidating. By the end of the trip, we had a new friend in Shay!
Great tour and lots of fun

5.00It was such a fun experience! I'm not good at communicating in English, but Alexa was very kind to guide me. We can also taste about 10 different wines, and we're very happy to have one lunch. The bike course is also very pleasant. Thank you.

5.00Our Ride To The Sky Guided Ebike Tour was one of the best things that I have ever done in Queenstown. I would highly recommend this to anyone! We did this as a group of four. There was my 7 year old daughter, her 10 year old friend and two parents and we had the most amazing experience. Shay was an incredible guide, he found just the appropriate level to extend all of us but kept it very safe with clear guidance and instruction at all times. A perfect mix of professionalism and fun. The scenery was unreal and even having lived in Queenstown for many years we travelled through areas that I have never seen. The photos and videos that we got did our adventure justice and we couldn't of been any happier with our day out. Thanks Shay we will definitely be back and we would recommend to anyone.
FANTASTIC!!

5.00One of the best excursions of my trip in New Zealand! Shaye is an amazing guide!! The bikes are professional quality and you feel completely safe with increasing challenges based on your experience. The views are to die for, rain or shine. Shaye also provided commentary and historic background of the area, and he documents with pictures and video during the ride for later download. Watch out for the cute Merino sheep. :-) HIGHLY recommend!

5.00Hi highly recommend this family run organisation. Small but very professional. If you want information on wine in the South Island, this is the best place to get it.
