New Zealand’s Premier Cycle Tour Company

WOW. What an awesome experience. We did the "Great Southern Circuit" - the combined West Coast Wilderness and Alps to Ocean over 13 days. We had a great group of people on both trips with lots of fun & laughter including the hiccups along the way. We had amazing guides. Nothing was too much trouble & the support & encouragement to some of us who were challenged at times was appreciated. To the team at Escape by Cycle thank you for your regular communication. The food & accommodation was superb. Thank you for an amazing time. Highly recommend this company & hope to see you again.

On our Escape by Cycle trip, we had 2 great guides, magnificent accommodation, excellent meals and picnics, and great company of others. The trail was exciting and even better than the first time we attempted it 5 years ago. Ebikes were a godsend this time!! We have now completed all the Escape by Cycle trips and have had wonderful support and enjoyable experiences every time. Recommend this company to anyone contemplating riding cycle trails.

Alps 2 Ocean Nov 22 with Escape by Cycle - Outstanding! The 6 day route is fantastic. The first two days scenery is dramatic under Mt Cook, thorough the tussock and along the lakes. But the great riding continues the next four days with ongoing great scenery. Surprising variety every day. Lots of relaxing stops and very doable. A sense of achievement every day from progressing towards the coast. Escape by Cycle have created an excellent itinerary with interesting characterful places to stay with atmosphere. All meals were great - healthy breakfasts, fresh healthy lunches and delicious dinners at the accommodation or out at decent restaurants. The bikes were very suitable for the A2O and in excellent condition. The guides were knowledgeable, professional and very friendly and added materially to the experience. Given the quality, the price represents very good value. Escape by Cycle is a first class tour operator - this is an outstanding trip..

Escape by Cycle is an excellent service provider. We've been on two tours with them - Alps to Ocean and West Coast Wilderness, and would recommend them unreservedly. They're extremely well organised and everything is top quality - the bikes, and accommodation, the food, the transport and the guides. They arrange excursions in the area as well as the bike trails, which add to the overall experience. Their service is excellent and their product is excellent. We will definitely go with them on our next bike trip.

What an experience - Loved it!! EBC - A2O tour did not disappoint. If you are looking for stunning views with great riding then this tour is for you. Even as an intermediate rider I felt comfortable and capable of handling the varied terrain. While some of our advance riders in the group ripped it up. Our guides were fun, experienced and took very good care of us in every aspect of our tour. Including our daily and section briefing sessions to ensure we know what to expect next and what points of interest we will come across. To ensuring our lunch spot was prepped ready for our arrival, ready to sub out a bike or change a tyre as required. All the accommodation was varied, but what they all had in common was – a great location, very comfortable beds, with super clean amenities. Highly recommend Escape By Cycle

Hands down the best tour we have ever completed. Guides, accommodation, food and equipment were the best. There is nothing Escape by Cycle could have done to make our trip any more memorable. Can't wait to travel with them again. Around the Mountains here we come!!

What an absolutely fantastic experience our A2O was. I was so well out of my comfort zone not being a cyclist at all, but loved it all. Best guides, really well organised, incredible views, fab accomodation, and after all that cycling, the food was so good! Highly recommend these guys. 😉

It ended way too soon. We had the most amazing experience with Escape by Cycle doing the A2O. I can’t recommend them enough. Everything from the accommodation to the food, the bikes and the transfers were perfect. The guides were there to help when needed and let us get on with it when not. They were fun , friendly and knowledgeable. We’re already planning our next tour with them which says it all. Thanks for a perfect week of cycling !

Awesome trip and company, a little bit more than just biking! So friendly, professional and all around fabulous time had!

I had an amazing experience the team at Escape by Cycle was excellent and very friendly, they provided us with all the support that was needed along the way they were at the right spot at the right time always making sure that we were ok. The accommodations, snacks along the way and dinners after the rides were excellent my big congratulations to Escape by Cycle for a job well done.

My wife and I just finished an A2O with Escape by Cycle. Our entire group absolutely loved our guide. He did a first-rate job looking after everyone. He was very attentive and attended to every detail. He is a great ambassador for Escape by Cycle and New Zealand. Two very satisfied Canadian clients!

Escape by Cycle were fantastic - super organised, made our trip flow and stress free. Excellent bikes and great guides. Definitely recommend!

Can't recommend Escape by Cycles enough. Brilliant organisation, quality bikes, great trails and provide excellent support from their very friendly and fun staff. If you are looking for a great group holiday do a trip with Escape by Cycle. These guys are amazing!

The whole group of us had a fantastic week. The team who lead us had everything fined tuned to the detail, food, beverages and local knowledge. Communication was awesome, we knew all we needed and never had to rush. Was a great week away, thank you!
