Electric Bike Hire - Half Day (Up to Four hours)

Pick up anytime from 9am and ride for up to four hours.

Ride at your own pace by hiring an eBike to explore Wellington city and the
surrounding bays. 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.

We can recommend a great half-day route that takes you from our store on the
Wellington Waterfront, around the bays to the Miramar Peninsula and back via a
lookout of the harbour entrance and Mt Victoria lookout. 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 Zealandia Sanctuary, Te Papa Museum and Weta
Workshop- your eBikes will become 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).

Arriving from a Cruise Ship

The

easiest way to find us to take the free Cruise Ship Shuttle and get off

at the North Lambton Quay Stop. We're about a 10 minute walk from

there.

Exit

your shuttle and walk down Whitmore Street. Stick to the sidewalk and

until you reach the water's edge and turn right. Stroll along our

beautiful waterfront for 5 minutes keeping the water's edge on your

left. Soon you'll come to our sign on the waterfront path and you'll see our
store.

Our bikes are suitable for rides from 145cm (4'8) tall. We have a variety of
bikes to suit your preference. 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 of how the bikes work- they're easy!
