Marlborough New Zealand is a wine lover’s paradise. The weather in Marlborough is perfect for wine: warm, dry, and beautiful. That also makes the area perfect for something else: winery tours.

The cellar doors, or tasting rooms, for all of the wineries in the area are also all located in a relatively small area, making it great for wine tasting tours. In our opinion, the best way to do a Marlborough wine tour is on a bike. When you bike, there are a ton of benefits that you get, which you don’t get while driving from winery to winery:

In 2018, we were living in downtown Chicago, in some ways living the American dream. We had recently graduated our Masters programs, had great jobs at places we enjoyed working, and had our own little nest in a downtown high-rise. However, something felt like it was missing.

Each weekend offered a reprieve from this schedule, and typically involved gallivanting around Chicago trying to spend our way out of the feeling that we were stuck in a rut.
