Combine a little exercise with the beauty and flavors of the Marlborough wine region on this delightful half-day adventure suitable for all fitness levels. Depart Picton by motorcoach to Vines Village, the heart of the world-renowned Marlborough wine region. Enjoy your first cellar door experience here, tasting three wonderful examples of Marlborough's Sauvignon Blanc. Then, gear up with a helmet and bike and set off at a leisurely pace to two more of Marlborough's boutique wineries. You'll stop along the way to learn about the vineyards and the most popular varietals grown here. At the second winery, you will taste a full range of Marlborough's wine varietals, including Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. From here you will travel along quiet country roads and cycle paths to the final winery. In a private room, refresh with a wine tasting accompanied by a lunch of delicious local food.

Special Notes:

The terrain for biking is flat. Easy cycling is suitable for all ages and fitness levels. You will bike approximately four miles, with a number of stops along the way. Bikes are recreational-style bikes with comfortable seats and suspension seatposts. In case of inclement weather a driving wine tour will be substituted.
