Vineyard tours on an electric bike

About

Our award winning self guided vineyard tour takes you through the quiet lanes of the Garden of England in Kent. You will see castles and gardens, the famous Kent Oast houses as well as sampling wine and many of the award winning vineyards that we have locally. We provide routes and maps on our tours along with, helmets, locks and panniers. If you've never been on an electric bike, don't worry, it’s the same as a normal bike except when you pedal a motor cuts in to help you on your way. There are various speed settings up to 15mph or you can switch the electric off and ride it like a normal bike.

What trip wouldn't be complete without lunch is a local pub. This can be pre booked or we can advice you where to go and what to see and do.

We are based at the historic Headcorn Aerodrome with Spitfire planes, skydiving and wing walking it’s a great day out and we are only 5 minutes from Headcorn Train Station (50 minutes from London by train).

As E-bikes are only legal for people aged 14 or over, for families we have a range of children’s bikes and tag-alongs to ensure that all ages are included.
