Stephanie was 100% amazing, I enjoyed my time with her a lot and she was detailed, nice and friendly. I wouldn’t ask for any other better days or better guide, what a good one today!

So much fun. Guide was knowledgeable and showed us many different sites and advice about what to see. The electric pedal assisted bikes were great enabling us to get up hills with ease.

This was a great bike ride. Went up to the water tanks and had a wonderful view. Ebikes are awesome. Pedal as much or as little as you want. It was pretty windy - when it was a side wind you really had to careful but the guide warned us of this. Don’t hesitate to- easy and great ride with an e-bike.

We had a fabulous trip. Jack was very knowledgeable and made the trip very interesting. Easy cycling except for one steep hill, which wasn’t a problem at all on an e-bike. The ice cream towards the end was also a nice touch. Would highly recommend!

Switched on Bikes picked us up promptly, outfitted us with our bikes and took the time to be sure we were all confident before proceeding. Jack looked out for all of us and paced the ride perfectly.

We completed the 3-4 hour e-bike tour of Wellington. It was absolutely stunning and our host really made the trip by providing great historic insights along the way which kept it both fun and educational. We covered 23km which is easy on the e-bike tour and took in some stunning views of Wellington and it's surroundings. Could not recommend this trip high enough!

Bike tour was awesome and the views stunning! We rode along the coast and it was very windy at times but a great experience. All 4 of us had a fantastic time! Our guides Tara and Dillon were very attentive and knowledgeable! Definitely recommend this to everyone who wants to get a little exercise and have an amazing view of the entire harbor and surrounding area!

This was a great way to see more of Wellington and learn from a local. Our guide, Dylan, was awesome. Helpful, knowledgeable and interesting. He made the tour so enjoyable. Great views from the top of the hill and the gelato was a nice treat to finish.
