“It was a windy day (Windy Welly), and we were concerned walking from our cruise ship it may not have been a good idea. Short walk from the ship dock along the promenade. Staff very helpful with maps/routes to take, and where not to go which was one area along the Oceanside. The BAY and city were very Rideable. We ventured off into some neighborhoods in the Weta Workshop stumbled across a neighborhood cafe, enjoyed conversation with the locals. Ride to some peaks for great views.

Review of Wellington’s guided eBike shore tour, with waterfront riding, harbour views, café stop, safety tips, pricing, and cruise timing.
“Jack and Elizabeth were great hosts. They made a point of talking to everyone and there were about 21 of us. We rode along the wharf and along the street to Oriental Bay and ultimately a park with views of the ocean on two sides and, of course, Wellington. On the way back, Jack treated us to Gelato. We rode about 20 km and the bikes performed well, especially the ride up the short hill to the lookout. The ride lasted about 3.25 hours which was just right.”
