What to expect
You'll begin with a safety briefing and hands-on instruction from a certified instructor, covering scooter operation and essential techniques. Once confident, you'll ride out into the vineyard terrain, stopping at two wine estates where you'll taste their offerings. The pace is leisurely rather than adrenaline-fuelled—the scooter lets you navigate between properties and across the landscape more fluidly than on foot, though it demands steady balance and concentration. Wind and terrain play a real role in how the ride feels.
Good to know
Gloves and helmet are non-negotiable. Weight limit is 140kg. Those with inner-ear problems, poor heart health, or pregnancy should skip this. You'll need moderate fitness—it's more than passive but less than intense. Wear closed shoes and clothes you don't mind getting dusty.
