Overview
Who says growing up has to mean growing out of curiosity, creativity and play?
Whimsical eBike Experiences by Active Whimsy brings a different kind of adventure to McLaren Vale, combining guided electric bike tours with art, food, wine, nature and a little unexpected fun.
Created by the people behind SA eBikes, these experiences are about more than getting from one place to another. They're an invitation to slow down, take the scenic route, try something new and reconnect with the joy of exploring.
Imagine creating edible art at a winery, discovering unusual sculptures, cycling between vineyards or sharing a few laughs with friends somewhere you never expected to find yourself.
Their experiences bring together local makers, artists, wineries and other creative people to offer something beyond the usual wine tour.
From customisable group outings and milestone celebrations to special events and imaginative weekends, there's room for different interests, occasions and a healthy dose of spontaneity.
Based in McLaren Vale, around 45 minutes south of Adelaide, Active Whimsy invites you to discover the Fleurieu Peninsula with fresh eyes.
Because a little wonder shouldn't be reserved for childhood.
