Qualmark Gold – awarded again for 2026
Gold is Qualmark’s highest level of Sustainable Tourism Business accreditation and recognises leading New Zealand tourism businesses delivering exceptional visitor experiences while demonstrating a strong commitment to sustainability, their people and their community.
We’re incredibly proud to continue achieving Gold, and hugely grateful to our wonderful guests, cellar door partners and everyone who helps make Wine Tours by Bike what it is.
Wine Tours by Bike is a family-owned bike hire business that has been operating in the Marlborough wine region since 1999. We are the proud new owners and being a couple who love to connect with people, love the outdoors and enjoy a wine or two, finding this business for sale was a real find!
So after many “meetings” and a couple of glasses of wine….we decided this was the adventure we wanted to embark on and honestly have to say we love it!
Gold Qualmark awarded 2025-2026, 2024-2025, 2023-2024 and 2022-2023. This award is evidence of a sophisticated tourism business that consistently exceeds visitor expectations. Proactive leadership and management ensure that a culture of high performance is evident throughout the entire business which is committed to protecting our beautiful natural environment, enhancing connections with our local communities, whilst also delivering a quality, safe experience for all visitors. This business has a real focus on continuously improving their economic, social and environmental performance to ensure the tourism product they deliver is a genuine, constantly improving sustainable experience.
