Overview
Choose a Morning or Afternoon Departure. From the centrally located Waterfront to the quiet bays and panoramic lookouts, you’ll be enthralled from start to finish. These quality electric bikes are easy to use and suitable for any level of fitness. If you can ride a bike, you can ride an eBike! Your guide will keep you safe with helmets provided and full riding instruction. The tour is lighthearted, fun and engaging with the focus on riding and finding the best view points. You’ll get a local’s perspective on the culture and history of our vibrant city and surrounding bays. This tour mainly rides around the Wellington's stunning bays, with minimal city riding.
Meeting and Pickup
Switched On Bikes is centrally located on the waterfront and only a short walk away from the Wellington iSite centre and Te Papa Museum. If you need to drive, the best place to park is the Te Papa Museum car park. From here it is a short walk along the waterfront to our store (see our map above).
Pickup Information
If you are arriving on a cruise ship, we will pick you up near the port. When you disembark, follow the signs to the Independent Tour Operator Pick Up Area. It’s about a 500m walk from your ship. At the end of your tour, we encourage you to stay in the capital city and explore more of what Wellington has to offer. If you prefer to go straight back to the ship, our guides will ride with you back to the original collection point. Please note that pick up is available to customers arriving on cruise ships only. Other customers must make their own way to our shop for their tour.
