Epic day

Had an epic day cycling from Arrowtown to Gibbston Valley with my partner and the help of Going Blue. Was our best day in Queenstown this trip and got to enjoy the scenery and earn ourselves the many wines along the way! Would highly recommend! The team at Going Blue are great and relaxed, yet are there to assist when you need them! Thanks for the experience!

So much fun!

I did this with two other girls in ebikes and it was super fun. The view is breathtaking and the bikes were good and had all the things you need. They don’t give you water as it says, so byo but they do give you bikes with bottle holders and a lock. The maps are a little bit confusing and we got a little bit lost which made us took longer than expected but even with that it was super fun. Jorge was amazing and even picked us up a bit later for us to be able to drink some wine. Thank you
