We love cycling and thought it would be great way to see some of Hawke's Bay's wineries. We booked the gastronomic tour and were not disappointed. Jenny met us at Napier Airport and drove us to our first night's accommodation. After we checked in she, very kindly, drove us to nearby Napier. The morning of the first day of cycling we were fitted to our bikes, given very detailed directions on easy to read sheets attached to the handlebars in waterproof holders. The bikes were in very good condition and the supplied panniers big and easy to take off while sightseeing. The route and riding surfaces were easy. Jenny or Bradley were always available by phone if needed. Our luggage was taken to our next night accommodation. Our accommodation was, well deserved, 5 star. The tour operator was awarded a top tourist attraction award last year and it was well deserved. We will return to them when next in Hawke's Bay.
