13 days of spectacular riding along rainforest edged roads and spectacular coastlines. Soak in hot pools and have the chance to walk on a glacier. Pedal through quiet, rolling farmland and finish up in adventure central - Queenstown.

“The stunning diverse surround-ings, thrilling action packed tour, great guides and company made this trip very memorable.”Kathryn Hall, UK, Great West Coaster, Dec 2008

A cycle trip for cyclists on one of the world’s top five cycling routes! So you like quiet sealed roads, spec-tacular views and the chance to let the miles roll under the wheels? Some steady uphill climbs, rolling farmland, cosy hotels and inns and a feel for real New Zealand? This 13 day cycle trip (or split into a 5 and 9 day tour) is made for you. From Christchurch on the East Coast we cross the main divide twice as we explore the South Island’s West Coast and finish back into Queenstown, the adventure capital of New Zealand. Relax in hot natural pools at the end of a day’s riding, experience rainforest edged roads, spectacular coastlines and a chance to walk on a glacier - or just keep those miles rolling by. For those days when the gears seem a little high and the hills just a bit steeper, the accompanying support vehicle is always close at hand. This trip has been designed for all levels of cyclist.
