5.00Friendly and knowledgeable staff at both ends of bike ride. Like the self guide and independence of this ride. Just a few issues with marked trails mostly due to in town construction
Nelson a bike gem experience

4.00Was a great weathered day for bike riding the easy flat 32km journey. enjoyed the changing views from inner township, wetlands and costal bike path ways. Being early Jan 26 a few venues were closed but there was one approx 7 ks in where it provided excellent coffee great treeline canopy and view on incoming ' outgoing airlines landing and take offs. Our final destination was a real treat on Rabbit Island with excellent brewery great food and plenty of local artisans shopping options and a great ice ice cream shop. Being bussed back and being given one of the best history reviews of Nelson and its famous residents and exceptional colonisation was worth going around the block again to hear more, definatley need to invest in a microphone as it's a shame for all not to hear about such excellent detail of history. If anyone has a seat preference ask if the have gel seats. Overall this was 10/10 PS a few blue bike signs had worn out could do with updating. Maybe marking the points with how far they have biked and how far to go to pace easier and allow least 2 hours on Rabbit Island or a dip in the waters on the final leg. For small kids maybe too far or opt for the ebike is worth it!
Sensational experience all round

5.00Absolutely fantastic day, very well organised from start to finish. Bikes were sized to fit us and in really good condition, paneers very useful. We were provided with maps and a detailed walkthrough of the route, highlighting specific points of interest, which was very helpful. Matt, the shuttle driver, not only dropped us at our accommodation on the way back he provided a lot of interesting information about Nelson and the surrounding area along the way, thank you. Very good value for money
Great day on an e-bike in Nelson

5.00This is a nice way to experience parts of Nelson we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. The gear was top notch. The instructions were clear and it was nice to be able to set our own pace.
Not what we expected.

3.00Not what we expected. Route map/directions not easy to follow with construction and we were thrown off track. Riding beside major roads at low tide not very enjoyable. However. we appreciate all the people we dealt with at Kiwi Journeys who were very friendly and accommodating, picking us up early.

5.00Wow what an experience. A beautiful day cycling the great taste trail from Nelson to Mapua. Unbelievable views of snow capped mountains, opportunities for food and wine tastings and welcoming residents happy to assist us on our journey. The whole experience facilitated by Kiwi Adventures was seamless - great maps and explanation and above all just fantastic EBikes and supporting equipment. Highly recommended.
Great company and trip!

5.00The trail winds through both city, country and Forrest in this portion of the trail! Not quite as many breweries or wineries as we thought but it was a gorgeous day to ride and we stopped by 4 places and the classic car museum on our trip. We hit the Mapua ferry around 4pm and stayed in the mapua area for an hour as a nice little reward for our efforts. If we could do it again we would spend more time in mapua at the end. Bikes were great and the service was also top notch. They had a van to pick us up in mapua when we finished our ride and take us back to their shop.
