E-bikes in Napier. - We rented e-bikes for the afternoon. Rog the owner communicated in a timely fashion. At the meeting place he was friendly and gave good information about the tour and trails.

Would certainly recommend - We did the self guided cycle wine tour with Takaro Trails. They were easy to contact and quick to respond. On the day we had the bus to ourselves with the fun and friendly Mika. He was full of knowledge and matched our interests/energy levels well. He drove us via some of the cycle route to familiarise ourselves with good advice on guidance for the rest of the tour. Drop off and collection were timely and efficient. The cycle itself was lovely as were the winearies. A very good day out overall. Thanks Mika and team

Lovely day on a bike with Jenny - We were in Hawkes Bay in the off season so were lucky to get Jenny, the owner, as our guide for a wonderful bespoke tour of the area. We visited a cheesemaker and wineries on bikes with a beautiful lunch and tasting at Elephant Hill Winery. When my husband and I decided to split activities so I could have more biking time, Jenny deftly changed our plan and accompanied me on the ride. She was easygoing, can-do and knowledgeable about the area, and we thoroughly enjoyed her company and expertise. I’d recommend her to anyone visiting the area.

Bikes good - but no wine for us - The vendor was very nice and helpful and the equipment was great. However, the route to the winery was very complicated and we were afraid after experiencing the wine we would never make it back in time for our cruise departure. So we ended up just riding the bikes into the charming town and hanging out there. Would have been easier to just rent from a place int own though since it was a van ride to the vendor location. That is why the low stars - I would not recommend doing the self guided wine - bike experience.
