A great taste of Tasman - Good communication from the company beforehand and an easy pick up of bikes with clear explanation of route. The trail was easy to navigate and had plenty of lovely opportunities to stop along the route and a delicious and interesting wine-tasting. Would certainly recommend!

Stunning views of the... - Stunning views of the Nelson coastline/estuary and local farmland on this all day excursion to the winery and back. But cycling was easy safe, and energizing. Chris and Bernie couldn't have been better hosts. All and all, a peek experience!

A Perfect day in and around Nelson on the Great Taste trail. - This trip was a perfect combination of exercise with great e-bikes, wine tasting and food. Petra was a wealth of knowledge and made great recommendations. The route was easy to follow. Communication, before and during the tour was excellent and we cannot recommend this trip and the Gentle Cycling Company highly enough.

The E bike experience is the best way to experience Nelson - The lovely Bernie made sure we had a wonderful day cycling in Nelson. The suggested itinerary was excellent and the cheese tasting and cheese scones at the Old factory corner she recommended were absolutely delicious. The bike tracks are very user friendly. The Seifried winery was a perfect spot for wine tasting and lunch. We enjoyed the ride to Rabbit Island was lovely.

Amazing cycle tour - We had a great day, cycling to and from Rabbit Island on Christmas Eve. We were so lucky with the weather - sunny all day long! We stopped for lunch en-route at an amazing garden cafe as well as a pre-booked wine tasting at one of the local vineyards. Petra at The Gentle Cycling Company was pure joy to be with, picking us up and dropping us off to and from our accommodation. Petra and the team ensured we were all well prepared for the ride out and the route to take. Thank you for an amazing time.

Cool Experience - The management was very responsive to our needs and made sure we were well taken care of when one of our party had to leave the group. Beautiful scenery and lovely lunch spot at the Grape Escape Only one winery happened to be open on a Monday. Julie, Janet and Judy

Awesome trail - Great trail for a ride except the first section when it parallels the highway. The trail is well maintained and marked. We rode to Rabbit Island and it was well worth the effort. The beach is a great place to rest and listen to the surf.
