North Island Indulgence Tour

9:30am -10:00am (If required) Quick drive to start of the ride
10:00am – 12:00 noon Daily ride of between 40 and 60 km’s (1 ½ to 2 ½ hour ride) on flat to hilly terrain

Notes:
* During transition days, we may drive for longer before starting our daily ride, and finish the ride with a late lunch before making our way to your accommodation for the night.

** Either the Cycle Turismo team or the accommodation provider can recommend activities and sight seeing options. Contact us for ideas and transportation options.

*** Three evening dinners are included in the North Island Indulgence Tour package. Pre-dinner drink and limited wine is supplied.
