The 6 Bike Tours in Napier & Hawkes Bay That Earn Their Price

1.Napier E-bike Hire

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 99 reviews · from $65Our pick

Napier e-bike rental for flat coast and wetlands trails, up to 8 hours, $65.16 per person, cruise-shuttle easy start.

“We had a wonderful day on the bikes exploring the city. There is a long bike path to keep you out of traffic. The bikes were comfortable and operated nicely. If you plan on biking to the wineries, you should know that the closest one is 10 miles away and the map is hard to follow. Luckily we had a local that assisted us most of the way there.”

Only thing to note is that some wineries were already in Winter mode in May (either shut or opening later) so keep that in mind!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 42 reviews · from $62

The bikes were really well maintained and safe, Phil provided maps that gave us plenty of flexibility on our route, and he also picks up any purchased wine so we didn’t need to ride with it. The trails were well maintained and it was easy to get around to the wineries. I would recommend this to friends.”
