Thank you Nicky and Lisa for the fantastic vacations on wheels. We cycled over 100 kms over 3 days, drank a few wonderful wines along the trail and ate plenty of fresh berries from the local growers. Nicky and Lisa always made sure that we were riding downhill on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways. They clearly know the area well and the challenges of cycling uphill after a glass of wine... LOL! The different B&Bs every night were well chosen and tailored to our likings - with beautiful dinners provided as per our request. The hosts were as lovely as the [tour operator] girls. What a great break around Nelson!

3 days, 100 odd kms (give or take), a few hills thrown in for good measure and stunning scenery. So much on offer here. Vineyards, views, mountain bike trails, leisurely trails, old pubs and we can't forget coffee at Ginger Dynamite. Great pasties here too. Nicky was fabulous the way she organised our trip over 3 days for 10 people of different cycling abilities. My e-bike was fabulous. Power assist to help my pathetic legs up all those hills. Yet allowed me to enjoy my cycling. [The tour operator] were really fantastic. Would highly recommend.

We had 3 lovely days riding part of the Tasman Great Taste Trail and then through the Upper Moutere region. Our bikes were comfortable and we were provided with nice roomy waterproof panniers. Nicky was fabulous right from our first email contact. She was quick to respond, shared her extensive local knowledge and provided us with great options with flexibility to individualise our itinerary. Throughout the 3 days we knew we had her support and backup at any time we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would highly recommend [the tour operator].
