If, during this training session, our guides assess that a rider is not competent or confident enough to safely operate the bike, they will not be allowed to continue riding on the tour.

Absolutely amazing and fun time. Well worth the time if your ever in queenstown definitely go for it
Ben our guide was very friendly and obliging. I was worried this trip would be dumbed down and lame. I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed every minute.
Geoff, it's brilliant to hear Ben's friendliness and obliging nature set the tone for an unexpectedly thrilling adventure! 😊 We're stoked you found the trip anything but lame, and enjoyed every single moment, proving that Queenstown's charm and our team's dedication make quite a combo.
Amazing experience with Benjamin leading us up and down the mountain. Great views and catering provided.
What a thrill to hear about your amazing adventure, Harry! Huge props to Benjamin for guiding you through those breathtaking mountain views and ensuring a memorable experience with quality catering.
Thomas was a great guide. He explained how to operate the quad with easy instructions. The ride throughout the tour was so fun and the views were amazing!
Take every piece of equipment they offer - boots (make sure no holes), rubber pants, neck gator, gloves, helmet, googles. If you are uncomfortable on the practice track DO NOT drive by yourself or better yet don’t go at all. Definitely for fun adventurers not the faint of heart. Matt and Nico were great.
What a way to see Queenstown and cap off our time here. We’ve done quad bike tours before and this was by far the best. Matt and Dan were our guides and and they were awesome. Hot coffee and banana bread at the top with breathtaking views. A must do! Highly recommended
