A very warm welcome from Lorelle, Greg and the team here at Wine Tours by Bike Your day in a nutshell... We offer 2 bike hire timeslots.... 10.00am-4.00pm with a shuttle pickup from your accommodation at 9.30am or 11.00am-5.00pm with the shuttle pickup from your accommodation at 10.30am. The shuttle service is offered if your accommodation is in Blenheim within 15km of our base (our address is 33 Blicks Road, Renwick, so if in doubt, please look on Google before booking or contact us directly to double check). On arrival at our base you will get the chance to try out the bikes to find one that suits you. You will be given your own detailed cellar door map to keep to refer to during the day and the team will talk you through this to help get you orientated with the area. There is then a short safety briefing and a video that runs through all of the cellar doors that has up-to-date information on what wines they offer, their tasting charges, if they have food available and their opening/closing times. The team will be there at all times to help you with any questions you may have, and offer advice and ideas on routes and where you might like go. You will be fitted with a hi-vis helmet and given a lanyard to pop around your neck (this has our contact details on it and a reminder of what time your bike hire finishes), then you are free to go and visit your chosen cellar doors and do so all at your own pace. If you need us for anything whilst you are out, the team are but a phone call away. Once your time on the bikes is finished, you return to our base and our shuttle will be waiting here to take you back to your accommodation again. If on our 10.00am-4.00pm timeslot, our shuttle should have you home safe and sound by 4.30pm. If on our 11.00am-5.00pm timeslot, our shuttle should have you home safe and sound by 5.30pm. You may also bring yourselves directly to our base if you would prefer - we have plenty of free parking available for you. The legal alcohol drinking age is 18 years old. Please remember to bring either an International Passport ID , or a NZ Drivers License if you are aged between 18-25 years old. (The cellar doors can only legally accept these as forms of ID) Lunch Ideas Most of the cellar doors offer cheese/mixed platters and you do not need to book in to get one of these ahead of time - you can just order one when you arrive there to have alongside your tastings. However, if you would prefer something a little more substantial, these are the restaurant options that are within biking distance and to be on the safe-side, we would recommend that you book at table before the day of your bike hire. The Fancy Cow - 25 minutes biking from our base (Open 5 days, closed on Monday & Tuesday) Allan Scott - 40 minutes biking from our base – bookings essential (Open 7 days a week) Vines Village Café - 20 minutes biking from our base (Open 7 days a week). If you have any dietary requirements, please let us know as we are more than happy to recommend the restaurant/s that we feel will be the best at catering for you. Note: Please do not book lunch at Wither Hills, Saint Clair’s, Harvest Restaurant or the Wine Kitchen as they are all too far away and therefore not accessible on our bikes - best visited by car :-) CELLAR DOORS There is no need for you to book in ahead of time to visit any of the cellar doors that surround us here in Renwick. You will have upwards of 12+ to choose from who are between 5-20 minutes biking from our place and you can simply turn up and they will do a tasting with you. The ONLY cellar doors that do require bookings are: *Hans Herzog* - they are a 25-minute bike ride from our base, so if you want to go there, the ideal times to book would be between 12 Noon and 2pm. *Cloudy Bay* – they are a 40-minute bike ride from our base, so if you want to go there, the ideal times to book would be between 12 Noon and 1pm. Alternatively, maybe you can visit them by car the next day. *Framingham Wines* - they are a 7-minute bike ride from our base All 3 cellar doors have a booking form on their website that you will need to complete.

5.00My husband and I had a great day on our bike tour with Lorelle and Greg. We were picked up promptly from our hotel in the morning and provided with helpful materials to review to help with deciding which cellar doors to visit. Our bikes were in good working order and functioned well throughout the entirety of our tour. They provided a very helpful map and were happy to answer questions we had to help plan our trip. I would recommend to any family and friends!
Great wine bike self-guided experience in Marlborough

5.00This is a fun activity in Marlborough for those interested in biking through vineyards around Renwick. You can reserve bike hire through the business online with options of meeting at the main office or with shuttle pick-up and drop-off at your area hotel. Bike hires start at 9am and 10am with drop-off at 4pm or 5pm. We found the pick-up and drop-off service quite helpful since we planned to do tastings at 5 different wineries and didn't want the hassle of dealing with our vehicle. Bikes are in very good condition and include helmets, and attached wine holders for 4 bottles. Good orientation is provided at the main office regarding the bike paths and roads situation around Renwick. Information about the various wineries including opening times, wine specialties and if they offer lunch and meals is also provided. Map of the area and cellar door locations is provided. Then off you go on our self-guided wine tasting experience. Note that they offer to retrieve any wine purchases for you and bring them back to the main office in the afternoon if helpful. You just have to call or message them by 3pm on the day. We found the cellar doors were helpful in this regard and would ring them up for you as well. On the day we visited a handful of wineries with cellar doors and quite enjoyed the scenic environs and various tastings, finding some very good wines in the process. Ended up purchasing 6 bottles in total. Found them boxed and waiting for us upon return to the Wine by Bike main office. We were returned to our accommodation shortly after. It was a great day out and overall very good experience sampling new Marlborough wines that we were unfamiliar with.. Would gladly do this wine bike tour again next time in the area.
Great day out

Such a great way to experience the wineries – we absolutely loved it. Highly recommend to anyone considering it, we’d definitely do it again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They picked us up exactly when they said they would, and from the moment we met them, they were incredibly welcoming and friendly.

5.00Great day out! Plenty of wineries within easy riding distance… plus gin, whisky & beer tasting options for the non wine drinkers. Our teenage children also enjoyed the day… particularly finishing at Forrest for a game of volleyball.
10/10 Experience!

5.00Had a fabulous day and weather was perfect. Stopped at one of the wineries for lunch, which was excellent. Paths are well defined and pretty flat most of the way, bikes were comfy and a selection of sizes to choose from. Highly recommend it.
Great way to explore Marlborough wineries

5.00Fantastic day exploring the wineries by bike. Very friendly shuttle pickup and dropoff (thanks Pam!) took us to the heart of the vineyards to start our cycling. Plenty of good advice on where to go and Lorelle also took the time to phone a couple of vineyards for us and confirm tasting and lunch bookings. Would recommend and already planning to do again.
