Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We highly recommend to rent an e-bike to wander around Stewart Island and discover its hidden secrets (beautiful beaches, breathtaking lookouts etc.) Many streets are steep and without the e-bike, we would have skipped a few places at the end of a long day : electric bikes allow you to do more in less time without breaking a sweat. The bikes are in good condition and the service is top notch and very friendly.

Great service from very friendly staff who explain everything you need to know about these fun bikes. There are a lot of hills in the small amount of roads on the island but the bikes make it easy to get up them without huge amounts of effort. Would recommend booking ahead as they are in big demand

We rented bikes here and it was really simple process. We called ahead just to make sure there would be bikes available and reserved 2 bikes. The bikes were really fun and being the first time I had been on an e-bike before, I didn’t find it difficult to operate them at all. There were one or two really steep hills we had to push walk them up because the engine wasn’t able to handle it and they are pretty heavy to push but we got to see most of the roads on the Island without having to walk them. I would recommend this activity to anyone!

We hired two bikes to explore Oban / all the public roads around. We thought we only needed 5 hours but it was a lovely day and we went to Ackers Point (which added a bit of a walk) and Deep Bay, then on to Lee Bay and walked to Māori Beach (on the Rakiura Track) and back to town via Bathing Beach. We needed the bikes for an extra 90 minutes and it was easily organised by calling the shop. The bikes have a lot of power and made the rides so easy!

Super fun! The weather wasn't great on that day (it was winter after all!), so we thought this would be ideal to get to some of the shorter walks (e.g. Lee Bay to Maori Bay), then out to the other end of Oban at Ackers point. Being able to speed up those hills made a big difference as to how wet we got. We would've missed out on some beautiful spots if we hadn't umped on the bikes. Great service and instructions. Lovely friendly people. Afterwards warm up with a coffee in front of the fire at the cafe.

We rented two e-bikes for 24 hours here. We were a bit apprehensive about renting for this length but it was 100% worth it. It’s a great way to get around the island and we had the liberty to take our time exploring.
I would recommend for anyone spending a couple of days here as it’s a great way to get around and see all the landmarks.
The team was really friendly and easy going!

Fantastic way to see the amazing places at Stewart Island. Was our first time riding an electric bike and we loved it! The roads are good, the hills are very steep but no problem at all with this bikes.
We went for the 3 and 1/2 hours tour, enough to go around, stop for walks and take great pictures. The staff is friendly and pacient to explain the use of the bikes and the places worth visiting.
It´s advisable to bring sunscreen, water and sun glasses if the day is sunny and hot (as it was when we did it)
We highly recommend it!

Awesome from start to finish service was super friendly and nothing was a problem.
Without a doubt made our trip to Stewart island a much more exciting and pleasurable experience.
Recommend using so you can see all the places on the island otherwise walking if your only there for a day you would miss quite alot.

Pete is super friendly, helpful and professional. He gave me a really good idea of places to go and expected timeframes. I have never used an e-bike before and I found his explanation thorough and I was heading off in no time. Very reasonable pricing, an awesome way to get around the island and check out the beaches and short walks without having to hire a car or walk everywhere.
I hired the bike for 2 hrs, this is because I had already seen a lot of the places en route and just had a few more to tick off. I only just managed to squeeze them all in. If you really want to take it all in and have time to explore the places you go to- I would recommend the 4 hour option.
