What to expect
This is an easy family bike tour on a wide and well maintained biking trail. Whether you’re 7 or 70 this is a bike tour you can do. You also only need ride the bike track one way and it’s mainly downhill with a gentle gradient.
The biking trail meanders alongside one of Wanaka’s well known rivers. There’s a lot to see and do and plenty of time to stop and enjoy the views, take some fun photos of your bike tour and relax with a cool drink or cup of tea and a snack on the grassy river banks. This easy family bike tour passes by a standing wave facility on the river and you will often see people kayaking and river surfing as you ride by. The river water is crystal clear and if you keep your eyes open, you’ll see also spot some trout.
Your friendly Wanaka Bike Guide will be with you all the way making sure all runs smoothly and they’ll also keep you entertained with stories about the river and the surrounding area. They can also give you some helpful pointers if it’s been awhile since you’ve been on a bike.
Our easy family bike tour ends with a crossing of a spectacular new swing bridge spanning the river and your guide will take care of all the equipment and transport you back to your accommodation or Wanaka Town Centre as required.

as 0 experience bikers, we had so much fun with our Guider John, who arranged the route and photo taking positions so well alongside taking care of my 4 year-old son, and it was very safe for us during the activity.

Scott and the team were professional and organised. They were willing to custom our ride to meet the 'enthusiasts to novice' skill range of my teenage children. Even I managed to not fall off on a few of the more challenging descents! I would highly recommend them as we would not have found the tracks nor had the confidence to navigate the trails. We didn't have to lift a finger with it all organised and the pick up and drop off at our accommodation. Thanks again - would do it again.A very well organised day. Our family was met by Dan and given a thorough overview of the tracks we would be riding, the sites along the way and great places to grab a bite. We had a great day bike touring, thanks to Wanaka Bike tours! Very family friendly!

A must do ride. Thanks David we will most certainly use your services again Wendy and PhilGorgeous scenery, great bikes, and our guide Scott was fun, informative, and fabulous. We'd never been on e-bikes before, and it was unexpectedly exhilarating! I wish we'd had another four hours to explore.
