- Whilst experience riding an electric bike is not necessary (we'll provide an orientation and we'll do a test ride to make sure you're comfortable before we head off), you must of course be able to ride a bike! If you haven't ridden in a while, for your enjoyment/safety and that of your fellow riders, we strongly recommend you have a practice riding at home before your visit to Auckland. As well as riding on our wonderful cycleways, we will of course be riding in the road at times (to get to the good places!). Riding in traffic is a dynamic environment, so you will need to be comfortable riding in the road in order to enjoy the tour. And Auckland's volcanic past means that there a quite few hills to go up and down - the eBikes make going up easy, but you'll obviously need to be able to ride downhill! If you’d prefer a shorter, easier ride along Auckland’s beautiful waterfront - check out The Easy Rider, one of our other tour listings!

- You may also wish to bring a bottle of water with you for the ride. You can store that in the bag on your bike. The is also a water fountain near our departure point - if you need to fill up your water bottle.
- Whilst we welcome solo riders, this experience requires a minimum number of riders booked in order for it to go ahead (2). If it’s cancelled because the minimum isn’t met, you’ll either be offered a different date/experience or a full refund.

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning with Eddie. Everything was considered. Highly organised tour with excellent, and clean equipment. Perfect way to be introduced to Auckland, its a must do!

Such a fun e-bike tour exploring the major sights of Auckland. Eddie was a fabulous operator, sharing lots of interesting information about this beautiful city. The tour gives a great insight into the history and makeup of Auckland and sets you up for exploring after. Thanks Eddie for the wonderful experience.
Thanks for this fabulous review Trudy! 😊🙌🏻
Excellent bike tour with Ruben, around the Viaduct, Mt Eden, through the Uni, back through the city. The bikes were good quality, very powerful - even uphill.
Lovely to hear you enjoyed your tour with Reuben. And yes -our ebikes make easy work of those hills 😀 Thanks for the review! 👍🏻
We had a lovely morning out with Dennis. He was great about telling us in advanced about turns, steep hills, traffic situations, etc. he was also knowledgeable in a lot of the local community. Overall a great experience!

This electric bike tour exceeded my expectations! Our guide, Eddie was professional, knowledgeable and fun! The ride went all over the city and moved at a very nice pace. The sites were breathtaking and the bikes were wonderful. All the equipment they provided was first class and clean. A terrific experience, can’t say enough wonderful things about this tour.
Thanks so much for this wonderful review Peggy!
The tour was fantastic! Saw some great sights of Auckland and loved visiting Mt Eden which would be tough without an E- bike. Bikes were in fantastic condition and Eddie our guide and owner of the business was an excellent guide with a great sense of knowledge and a fantastic sense of humour, would highly recommend.
Thanks for the review and thanks so much for recommending us!
This was an incredible bike tour that we thoroughly enjoyed. We particularly appreciated starting our vacation with a bike tour to get an insider’s perspective of the area and receive recommendations for restaurants and activities. Our tour guide was fantastic, and we highly recommend this tour. The eBike made navigating the city incredibly easy.
Great to hear you enjoyed the tour! 🙌🏻
Eddie was excellent. He was friendly and informative and very easy to understand. We appreciated the fact that he didn't cancel even though we were the only 2 that signed up (it's the start of the off season). My bike seat kept dropping down and after multiple attempts to fix, he quickly biked back to shop and brought a new bike which made a huge difference.
Great to hear you enjoyed the tour! And glad we could sort that niggly seatpost clamp 👍🏻
We had an amazing e-bike ride with Eddie. A great way to see more of Auckland - marinas, parks, and high volcanic view point giving views in all directions. Trip is good for all levels and Eddie gives EXCELLENT directions through headphones so you always know what is coming making for a safe, enjoyable ride. Eddie is funny and spending time with him was a pleasure!! Highly recommend this trip and you get free photos from Eddie at the end to top it off. Thank you, Eddie.
Awesome to hear you enjoyed the tour! 🙌🏻
