You will be transported the short distance from the port to your cycle tour start point where your driver will give commentary on the fascinating Art Deco history of Napier city. On arrival at your starting destination, you will be set up on your comfortable touring E-Bike with a safety briefing and explanation on how to use the controller, gears, and brakes. You will cycle on a dedicated walking and cycling pathway with plenty of stops for commentary and photos, along fun seaside trails, estuary wetlands and rural farms. Following the shoreline, you'll enjoy spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and the bay that makes up Hawke's Bay. Closer to your destination, you will cycle along more urban trails towards your well-deserved food and wine stop – the trails take you right to the cellar door of one of the top Hawke's Bay wineries for a wine tasting and seasonal platter. Afterwards, it will be time to leave this fantastic area and return to the Napier port by van or coach.
