Explore Wellington with a Full-Day eBike Hire

A full-day electric bike hire gives you the freedom to see Wellington in a relaxed yet adventurous way. From the lively waterfront to quiet bays and panoramic viewpoints, there’s plenty to discover at your own pace. With helmet, lock and cycle map included, everything is set for an easy and enjoyable ride.

The eBikes are designed for all fitness levels, making longer routes accessible and fun. You can visit popular attractions like Te Papa, Zealandia, Weta Workshop and the Wellington Cable Car along the way. Whether solo or with friends, this flexible experience offers a unique way to connect with the city.

Scenic Routes and Local Secrets

We recommend a route that takes you around the bays, over to the Miramar Peninsula and up to Mt Victoria for spectacular harbour views. Along the way, enjoy a café stop at a local favourite, known for its relaxed vibe and unbeatable scenery. With plenty of time, you can mix sightseeing with moments of rest and reflection.

By choosing a full-day hire, you’ll turn your eBike into both transport and activity. Glide through coastal roads, stop for photos, and immerse yourself in Wellington’s creative atmosphere. At the end of the day, you’ll have seen more of the city than most visitors ever manage.
