Nothing was too much trouble and our drivers were happy to stop at Glendu Bike Park for a drink after a long day activity.

Matt was very efficient and every text or email was answered immediately.

The highlight for us was a walk to the Rob Roy Glacier Viewing Platform- an absolute must!.

Thankyou Matt, Gary and Broni.

Bronni from Wanaka Bike Tours was so friendly and explained the route and recommended stops on the way. The equipment was in perfect working order and we had such a fun day out.

Bronni did recommend going to Hook as a slight detour. We did this but unfortunately, it was closed so we had to turn around and cycle back. It didn't cause us any issues as we were on e-bikes but I might of been a bit grumpy if we were on a conventional bike.

As an aside, I would definitely recommend this stop. We went back the next day and really enjoyed it. Just make sure they are open on the day you are planning on visting!

We would absolutely do this again when we are down next time. Thank you so much for a great day out.

Stu and Hayley.

  Very simple and easy, from bike hire and options through to uplift and drop off, all under the guidance Chris.made for a great day thanks Chris

  Matt was very flexible and informative and the bikes were in excellent condition. This, combined with some cracking weather and a spectacular scenic route made our day brilliant.

The only information I would add would be perhaps better signage on the route (which was absolutely superb) especially after leaving the swing bridge - not sure were to go and no signs and also on the second half of the journey coming into the reserve no signs at all.
Apart from that I would thoroughly recommend this activity 🙂

It was a surprise for us to find no locks supplied for the ebikes; they were just left unlocked on the street and we returned them unlocked.

The e-bikes themselves were very good; the only issue was my handgrips were very worn which meant my palms were very sore at the end of the right; still sore 3 days later. Mostly we rode on trails so comfortable handgrips would have been good.

But overall, very easy, good e-bikes for what we chose to do for the day and great service. Thank you!

Could also do with a few more different helmets as it was hard to find one that fitted well
Overall, the service was friendly, we had a lovely ride to Hawea and back and didnt run out of battery.
