Itinerary Details

Ride The Trail and Bike The Wineries

Make your way to the centrally located Queenstown shop where the tour departs at 1030am sharp. Check in time is 10 minutes prior to departure time.

After checking in, sit back and enjoy the drive through the beautiful countryside as you are picked up in central Queenstown and driven to Arrow Junction, just outside of Arrowtown.  There you will be fitted to a bike, given some trail tips and all the info you need to know about the wineries. Hop on your bike and get straight into your pre-wine warm-up!b You’ll ride 6 km along a spectacular bike trail, which follows the Arrow and Kawarau river gorges, over the Edgar Swing Bridge then onto the Kawarau Suspension Bridge – home of the world-famous bungy jump.

From there spend the afternoon biking along the Gibbston River Trail, using our informative winery map to visit as many of the cellar doors as you like. Enjoy a relaxed lunch at one of the wineries or restaurants, or pack a picnic to have en route. If you ride all the way to the last winery, you will cover approx. 17 km on easy-riding, gravel bike trail.

The return shuttle will pick you up at 4:30 pm from your winery of choice in the Gibbston Valley.

Winery Bookings
To ensure you have an awesome experience at the wineries, it is best to book your tastings and lunch in advance.

The wineries are independently owned and operated, so tastings are not included in the price of this package, but average cost is around $10-$15 per tasting (some are free).
