Die Fahrräder waren vollkommen in Ordnung und die Menschen im Verleih sehr freundlich. Leider war der erhoffte Radweg durch die Weinberge nur ein Weg an der Straße entlang, mit einem nur sehr kurzen schönen Stück am Fluss entlang. Die Cave Tour mit Weinverkostung war auch nicht wie erwartet, da es sehr unprofessionell gewirkt hat. Sie war sehr kurz, die Gruppe viel zu groß und jeder der schon mal in Europa eine Weintour/Weinverköstigung gemacht hat, wird hier leider enttäuscht sein. Ich vermute der Grund liegt darin, dass der Weinanbau hier noch sehr jung ist.
This was our first activity in the Queenstown area and it was a wonderful start. The river is absolutely beautiful and you can hit a lot of spots on the tour by bike. It's fairly self-directed, which we enjoyed. Gibston Valley Winery and the cave are fantastic. Very generous sampling. Bindy is an absolute legend. Would recommend!
Locals visiting our beautiful country as 2 on this tour of 13. ^ from the states due to Milford track being close 4 from uk & 1 not sure.Pick as per instructions clear from Queenstown.Informative bus tour to Gibbston Valley. For us first up cave tour 14c / 75 per cent humidity all year round. Tried a variety of wines inside the cave before picking up a traditional v e-bike.Bikes were great headed towards peregrine wines for a tasting. After a valuable short trip to Rockburn for $10 each tasting of many fantastic wines. Assistant wine maker Scott Aliprandi on duty for the day.Luckily we can purchase Rockburn at most stores in Auckland so no need to purchase on the day. Sweeping back to Gibbston Valley wines for a bite to eat, tasting of wines before catching bus back to Queenstown via Arrowtown & hate to say it observing Micheal Hill Golf course. Absolute nice day out. My partner joined up to Gibbston Valley wine club as a result of this trip. Can't wait to purchase 2 x Bottles 2017 Rockburn Pinot Noir for my pending birthday. Not part of our tour but did visit carrick wines for lunch / platter for a superb lunch. If you are looking for a drink now pinot noir .. Never go wrong with Akarua Rua. Wooing tree in Cronwell is great . However keep away from Mt Diificulty visited this place 3 times over the last 7 years there ego is better than there !!!
The pickup point was central and easy to look for. Great weather for riding around the gorge and wineries area. We visited 3 wineries. It was a great experience!

Schöner Ausflug in Gibbston Valley
Fahrradstrecke auch für Nichtsportler geeignet (OK, man muss hin und wieder kräftiger auf Pedalen tretten). Leckere lokale Weine und Biere direkt beim Erzeuger, informative Weinbeg und -keller Führung. Die Preise für Lieferung nach Deutchland und Europa allgemein sind.... Also liber vor Ort genießen. Hauptsache das Wetter spielt mit.
