November 17, 2021 Hana Mouser

Wellington boasts a compact downtown area that’s easy to explore on foot and a wealth of architectural styles, from 19th-century wooden cottages to Art Deco masterpieces. Discover the city’s Maori roots at the Museum of Wellington City & Sea and the Museum of New Zealand. Sip coffee and people-watch in lively Courtney Place, or survey the city from scenic Mount Victoria. When the sun goes down on Windy Wellington, take a nocturnal tour of Karori Wildlife Sanctuary to meet some colorful inhabitants.

Great way to see Wellington. With the hills and breeze, electric bikes are the way to go. Hire them by the hour or half or full day. The guys at Switched on are friendly and helpful.

Friends had organised for us and our bikes to be picked up and taken back to Petone once we completed the Remutaka Cycle Trail. We were picked up by Dave who welcomed us and set to loading our bikes insisting we just sit back and relax! Picking us up for the carpark rather than Featherston, as we had arranged, was no problem to Dave at all. Dave is very personable and we easily chatted all the way to Petone. One couple of our group could not join us for the full trip due to cracked ribs. Dave waived their fee, which was most appraciated.

What an OUTSTANDING day! We are not regular cyclists but felt totally prepared and expertly instructed and went on to have a FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE. I don't think I stopped smiling the whole day. The bikes were of excellent quality and we felt safe and visible. I didn't want to give the bike back - I loved the day so much. We would thoroughly recommend Switched On Bikes wholeheartedly. Thank you.
