Highlights
Ride at your own pace by hiring a City Bike to explore Wellington city and the surrounding bays. From the centrally located Waterfront to the quiet bays and panoramic lookouts, you'll love your ride around Wellington! We have both standard road bike and step-thru cruiser frames for you to choose from.
We can recommend a great half-day route that takes you from our store on the Wellington Waterfront and around the bays to the Miramar Peninsula or to the Lyall Bay surf beach. We have a recommended cafe stop (a local's secret!) with fun atmosphere, outdoor spaces and one of the best views you'll find.
If you'd like to take in the best visitor attractions of Wellington while riding, we recommend upgrading to a full-day hire so you have the time to visit attractions such as Weta Workshop, Te Papa Museum and- your bike can be your mode of transport as well as your activity!
We're centrally located only a 10min walk from the Wellington iSite (visitor's information center) and 10 min from Te Papa Museum (NZ's national Museum).
You will be provided with riding instructions, a helmet, a lock and a cycle map of the city, including our top picks of places to stop on your ride. We have a large car-free space to get your riding and provide a full briefing on the bikes.
Additional information
We're thrilled that you've chosen to ride with Switched on Bikes!
This message confirms your booking
We provide full instructions and a safety briefing before you ride,
helmet, lock, cycle map and tips on where to ride. We've got high-vis too,
just ask at the counter.
Please remember Credit Card as bond, water bottle and sun screen
We recommend bringing an extra warm layer as the bays can be windy and
wearing bright clothes will keep you seen by others on the road. It's good to
avoid loose fitting clothing and extra-long jackets as these don't mix well
with the moving parts of bikes!
Please bring a sense of adventure!
