About Grand Traverse Bike Tours
Grand Traverse Bike Tours is a full-service cycling tour company based in Suttons Bay, just minutes from Traverse City in the heart of Leelanau Peninsula wine country. Specializing in guided and self-guided wine trail bike tours, they offer a uniquely Northern Michigan way to experience the region's award-winning vineyards — pedaling between tasting rooms on quiet country roads surrounded by rolling hills and cherry orchards. The company has become one of the most popular tour operators in the Grand Traverse region.
Tour packages range from half-day winery rides visiting three to four tasting rooms to full-day adventures that cover the length of the peninsula. Each tour includes a comfortable hybrid bicycle, helmet, trail map, and a support vehicle for luggage or tired legs. For those who prefer to explore independently, self-guided rental packages come with detailed route cards and winery recommendations tailored to personal tastes. They also rent bikes by the hour or day for riders who want to tackle the Leelanau Trail or TART Trail on their own.
What makes Grand Traverse Bike Tours special is the combination of world-class wine country and beautiful cycling terrain — the Leelanau Peninsula offers gentle grades, low traffic, and stunning views of Grand Traverse Bay at every turn. Their guides are passionate about both cycling and local wine, providing insider knowledge on the best vintages and hidden-gem tasting rooms. For couples, groups, and corporate outings looking for a memorable day in Traverse City's wine country, this is the gold standard.
