Queenstown Cycle Tours

New Zealand is a tourist destination where serenity and tranquillity resides. While most vacation spots are overcrowded and noisy, the land of the Kiwi’s remains solitary and quiet. It is not that the country is unpopular; it is simply because there is an abundance of attractions to witness so that tourists do not have to bump into each other wherever they go. Instead they can focus on the magical landscapes and the spectacular cultural experiences the country is known for.

Queenstown is undoubtedly a favoured destination within the country, attracting nearly 2 million visitors a year, most drawn by its natural splendour and fantastic year round events. Built around Lake Wakatipu and surrounded by majestic mountains, this idyllic place is a haven, perfect for rest and relaxation. The little town also has quite a big reputation as a venue for adventure sports. Thrill seekers will find everything from bungee jumping to sky diving available here. In fact, a popular recreational activity and a terrific way to sightsee is by taking a cycle tour.
There are several places that offer cycle tours, and there is sure to be a programme for everybody. The most basic of the tours takes visitors on an exploration of the alpine mountainside. Tourists can cycle down winding roads, and enjoy the crisp, clean air and unspoilt surroundings. If riding around and enjoying the picturesque scenery sounds too tame, one can opt for more adventurous packages, which includes hiking and kayaking as well. Heli-biking is another great option, where riders are taken to the top of a mountain by helicopter and then speed down mountain trails on sturdy mountain bikes. The best part about the cycle tours is that one does not have to be an outdoorsy person to enjoy it, and it can be especially enjoyable to do with a group of friends.
