Cycle Nelson’s Great Taste Trail to Mapua with bikes, ferry, wineries, breweries, coastal views, and flexible self-guided exploring.

Ride Nelson’s Great Taste Trail by e-bike, taste Seifried wines, and choose lunch or Mapua on this relaxed six-hour outing.
“Stunning views of the Nelson coastline/estuary and local farmland on this all day excursion to the winery and back. But cycling was easy safe, and energizing. Chris and Bernie couldn't have been better hosts. All and all, a peek experience!”

Ride Nelson’s flat Great Taste Trail to Mapua, with wetlands, beaches, tastings, a ferry crossing, and return transport included.
“Super fine cykler og service - dog havde vi problemer med at komme ud af lufthavnens området i vores biler, da den dags billet ikke virkede til bommen, parkerings personalet måtte lukke os ud - så nu er vi meget kede af det hvis vi bliver opkrævet parkerings betaling.”
Combine guided kayaking to Split Apple Rock with a scenic 44km eBike ride from Kaiteriteri to Mapua on this full-day Nelson adventure.
“Loved the kayaking and well signed Taste Trail. Would not let novice riders do the 44km ride in the heat, as it was demanding in places eg a MTB course to start. Not lots of places to stop for food and drink. Beautiful views.”
Sorted by what you actually want to do that morning.
