This is a fabulous way to see Nelson and an all-round great day. Bike from Nelson city to beautiful Mapua, have a little lunch. Then we pick up you & your bike and go wine tasting. At the end of the tour we deliver you home again and take your bike back for you.
A truly special exclusive tour of the Nelson Wine Region visiting 5 wineries on the Waimea Plains and the Moutere Hills. A full day of glorious wineries and amazing scenery. We stop for a gourmet lunch at either an Award Winning vineyard restaurant or another renowned local dining establishment.
The region has over 300 working artists that draw energy from the spectacular natural environment and create art and crafts that have a unique and personal signature attached to them. Meet artists & visit their workshops, visit the WOW museum & 2-3 wineries and also stop for a gourmet lunch at a renowned local Restaurant.
Enjoy a full day of scenic delights in Nelson, Tasman and Takaka. Go for a guided walk in Ngarua cave and see fossilised Moa bones. Visit the clearest water in the world at the sacred Waikoropupu springs.
Tarry awhile in the quaint township of Takaka, and if time permits, visit a local small distillery.

Only in Nelson for a short period and want to see everything? Due to the high demand from customers we have joined up with local cruise company Wilsons Abel Tasman and created a specially designed tour just for situations like this so we can fit in as much as possible but still have a nice relaxing day.
We take you on a beautiful scenic drive to the quaint village of Havelock. At the marina, you join the Mussel Cruise boat for a breath-taking and education cruise in the magical Marlborough sounds. You will learn about the mussel industry and taste delicious fresh steamed mussels straight out of the water.
At Bay Tours we love golf and we know you do, too. Our Golf Nelson Tours are tailor made for your individual golfing needs. Whether you want to play a round on a champion grade course or do a shorter 9 hole course hidden away in the countryside, we can cater for you. Don’t have enough players to make a pair or fours or have non-golfing partners? We have options for that...
Bay Tours Nelson can cater for larger groups when pre-booked. Our staff are skilled at creating tours to suit time restrictions faced by clients. Discuss your preferences with us then let us use our imagination to give your group a memorable outing. Tours can include visits to wineries, breweries, artists’ galleries and scenic points of interest.
Prior to our tour date, Owen contacted us in order to narrow down what we most wanted to see. Then he created a trip that was perfect for not only us, but also one other couple. We were able to see a large winery as well as a smaller winery. Lunch was made from local ingredients and was delicious. We visited the renowned Hogland glass blower's studio and we were able to watch a piece of art being created in the studio. We also met a woodworker who has craftily fashioned all the tools with which he works. In addition, we met a few potters and got to visit with them in their studios. Owen is very well connected with precisely the people you wish to visit while you are in Nelson, New Zealand. I heartily recommend this tour
