The best way to get around and experience Stewart Island. The bikes were quality and worked well. The booking was super easy online. The pick up and delivery was also super easy and super relaxed. We loved chatting to the owner and getting a few very valuable recommendations on what to do on the island. Super friendly and relaxed, we will be renting from here again.

Pete was wonderful! We had such a great time riding around on the E-bikes that were fun & absolutely necessary for seeing Stewart island easily. He gave us some tips for fishing spots as well as beautiful views. He had us fully prepared with gloves for my chilly hands and sorted us out with a bag to pop the fishing rod in. Made our trip to Stewart island one to remember. Thank you so much Pete, hope to see you again!

Great service, great bikes, flexible hire options - although if you have the time, the 8 hr hire option is perfect for biking almost all the roads and walking the stunning tracks on Rakiura/Stewart Island. Highly recommended as the best (and most fun) way to experience this stunning place.
