Make the most of your King’s Birthday long weekend! 👑🚲🛥️

Looking for the perfect way to spend your extra day off? Come explore the brand-new Te Ara Tupua and Tupua Horo Nuku pathways with our new eBike Harbour Explorer packages!

We’ve teamed up with East By West Ferries to create the ultimate Wellington loop. We provide the eBike, ferry ticket, and the logistics—you just bring the sense of adventure and take in the views.

Choose your direction: 🚢 Ferry First: Start with a relaxing cruise from Queens Wharf to Days Bay, then enjoy an effortless eBike ride along the coast back to the city. 🚲 Bike First: Pedal the beautiful, flat coastal pathways toward the Eastern Bays and catch the ferry back across the harbour to wind down.
It’s the ultimate way to experience our harbour and the new coastal pathways.

Slots are filling up for the long weekend, so grab your friends or family and book your spot!

“But hunny, it is south… of the North Island!” 😅
When she says “let’s go to the South Island,” and he somehow plans a five-day North Island biking adventure instead.
Cape Palliser — seals, sheep, and the kind of views that make you forget who was technically right. 🦭🐑🌊
Just one of many wild stops on our Remutaka adventure. 🚴‍♀️✨

Labour Day Weekend is here — even if the weather didn’t quite get the memo. Never fear…

Kaitoke is one of the best spots when it’s windy or drizzly — sheltered trails, river sounds, bush cover, and no battling a 50km headwind on the waterfront like a hero.

If the day looks average → don’t cancel the adventure.
Just change the location.

Save this for the next “should we still go?” convo 🤝
🚴‍♂️🌿☕️
