Hauraki rail Trail

Hauraki Rail Trail – Adventure cycling

Our Hauraki Rail Trail trip is designed for the casual cyclist; it is a scenic off-road cycle trail on a disused railway line. From Thames to Waihi the path cuts through the heart of New Zealand’s dairy farm region and passes through the spectacular Karangahake Gorge. Remains of old gold mines can be seen in the Gorge; the town of Waihi has an open cast gold mine that still operates.

Testimonials

The guides especially Hoang were the highlight of the trip. Professional, courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, humble, helpful – the list goes on. They are an asset to Pedaltours. The educational and fun aspects of the trip were unexpected and so enjoyable. Hoang was “Mr Google on wheels” for his knowledge of Vietnam. He really was great. We particularly enjoyed the horticultural educational stops, visits to local homes and the coffee stops in remote villages.

Dear Angela, Peggy and I want to thank you sincerely for all of your help in making our trip to New Zealand a spectacular success! We loved every minute of our vacation -- and largely because you and Pedaltours set everything up so beautifully. The accommodations were perfect for us…. The bike routes were awesome…. The trip was seamless, thanks to your great planning. Happy to be a reference for you anytime. With gratitude

I absolutely loved my biking vacation here in Tasmania. The terrain was tough, but the views were well worth all the climbs. Brett did an excellent job as our guide, pushing us when he needed to and encouraging us all the way. Thank you so much!

We both just want to say what a fantastic time we had whilst away with Haoung and Mr T. They were both superb and they could not have been more helpful and caring. The accommodation was great and as for the wonderful food well where do we start. The lunches were a bit too much at 5 or so courses and then having to do it all again in the evening we were so full. The stops along the way were interesting and were well looked forward to. We did just the right amount of biking each day and enjoyed the hotel pool in the late afternoons.

The tour you managed for WomanTours, February 27 - March 7 2016, was very well done. The routes, the daily maps, the individualized support from the van, were all excellent. Lodging and meals were just what we needed. Tony was a terrific guide, and worked hard to make everything happen, while still making it look easy. Thank you.

I thought the routes (roads), landscape, scenery and towns were all well planned out – made the trip! I’ve done a lot of rides and I can’t say I’ve been on a better route in terms of the above!
Kurt, USABiking in Bohemia
The itinerary was outstanding, the people divine, and the views: ORGASMIC! My favourite days were the first two to Munna and then to Kumily because of the climbs. I loved the boat cruise, and the last days of flat rides and a stop for a swim in the Arabian Sea! What an experience. The guides were outstanding ... they marked the routes well, guided us with the flag, had a smile at every turn, and provided us with nourishment on the way. On the houseboat we were treated to traditional songs by Siddhu as well as dancing for all. India is a magical place and I loved every minute of it.
Allison, USAKerala: Spices and Tea
The guides were excellent! They were always helpful, smiling and hard working. A true highlight of my experience with Pedaltours.
