This is our most physically demanding itinerary but your effort will be rewarded with stunning views and plenty of wildlife viewing opportunities.

We meet you at Port Chalmers or your local accommodation and transport you to the picturesque Otago Peninsula, one of the world’s top 10 cycling locations. You have the choice of a 10km, 20km or 36km cycling loop or you can bike out to Taiaroa Head for a 50km loop! Quiet roads, wildlife and stunning views makes the Otago Peninsula the most popular tourist destination in the greater Dunedin area and the best cycling destination in the Dunedin area.

We’ll custom fit you to your bike, provide you with a map and our insider tips on the best routes. We’ll provide you with a lock so you check out points of interest. Stop for a coffee at the picturesque village of Portobello. Check out wildlife at one of the rugged, white sand ocean beaches. Enjoy the cycle paths along the beautiful Otago Harbour. Take a ferry trip or wildlife tour from Portobello.

This ride has hills, need some pedaling help? We recommend renting an electric bike (extra $40)

Warning- Otago Peninsula roads are narrow in places and can be busy with local and cruise ship traffic. You must be comfortable and experienced riding in these conditions.
