About this tour

You'll navigate vine-covered slopes and rolling countryside at your own tempo, stopping at cellar doors or staking out a quiet spot for lunch.

What to expect
You'll collect your eTukTuk at Shirvington Wines with maps and route suggestions in hand. From there, you're free to pedal at whatever speed suits you—no guide, no schedule. The landscape unfolds gradually: vineyard blocks give way to open paddocks and quiet farm roads. You can duck into a cellar door for a quick taste, spend an hour at one spot, or veer off the suggested route entirely. Bring food from the winery or pack your own; there's plenty of spots to pull over and eat. The electric motor takes the sting out of hills, so even slower riders manage the terrain comfortably.
Good to know
Book ahead during peak season. Grab supplies and snacks at Shirvington before you leave—options tighten away from the cellar doors. Helmets provided for drivers; sturdy shoes help on rougher stretches. Allow 4.5 hours to actually enjoy the ride rather than rush it.
