The Experience
Before You Go
Charge and check your e-bike range
Confirm battery level before departure and carry the guide’s charger contact; hills are short but continuous use drains batteries faster than flat rides.
Pace tastings, ride safely
Sample flights at designated stops and avoid drinking while riding—your guide schedules breaks so everyone can enjoy wine responsibly.
Bring a reusable bag or pannier
You’ll buy cheese, jars and bottles—use the provided pannier or a small reusable bag to keep your hands free for riding.
Book seasonal activities early
Strawberry picking runs in local season and fills fast; check seasonal availability when you book to avoid disappointment.
