An excellent way to see the sights of Bay of Islands.

Karen_C, Apr 2024

An exciting and enjoyable trike ride around the Bay of Islands. Thanks to our driver Steve for making it memorable.

Fun but short ride

Trish_B, Apr 2024

This was a fun experience. We saw several beautiful locations. The trike ride was thrilling but not scary. The tour went by quickly. I think it would be fun to add a local pub stop or something to the tour to experience more of the location and vibe of the community.

Thrill seekers delight!!

Kate_A, Apr 2024

What a great way to spend an hour. Everyone we dealt with was very helpful and polite. The driver we had was great (unfortunately can't remember who it was) very good at what he does, and informative with local points of interest. To sum up, we loved it. Would most definately recommend.

Awesome

Vicki_A, Apr 2024

Fantastic experiences. Loved it. Wayne was a great guide and we felt very safe on the bike zooming around the roads.

Great ride

Sandra_B, Apr 2024

Had a great time riding on the bike. Would definitely recommend. Mark our driver was very good, was very informative

Fantastic ride

Gail_B, Mar 2024

Absolutely fantastic ride with Wayne. Stopped and told us all about the various places we stopped at, and the fast corners were such fun!! Highly recommended.

Wonderful experience

Vince_F, Mar 2024

Great experience and two wonderful hosts who are very experienced drivers. Would highly recommend and value for money

Try to wipe the smile off your face afterwards

Alan_B, Mar 2024

Should have a rating of F for fun. Bit of exhilaration amongst the views of the natural beauty. Loved, loved, loved it.

Adrenaline Ride

TimothyRobert_V, Mar 2024

We took the adrenaline junkie tour with Mark. It was awesome! Mark made sure that he gave you an adrenaline ride. He also asked frequently if all was ok. Highly recommend this unique tour. Mark also made sure we had photos to remember our tour.

Cruisers beware....

JeffConnor, Mar 2024

Our ship was denied port literally 3 hours before scheduled arrival due to forcast high winds and rain later in day. If you book without travel insurance you're SOL as tour director will not refund. Might have been better off waiting until tour contacted me to cancel as weather would have made our time slot impossible to operate. I blinked first and lost my money.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Our website & Trip Advisor recommend Travel Insurance for this reason

Go for it!

Janice_M, Feb 2024

Fun tour! Beautiful bikes and great guys. We had a little drizzling, which was a bummer, but we had rain gear. I wore a stocking cap, and would recommend to control your hair! We’re in our 70’s and had a blast! Thank you for a safe, and exhilarating ride!

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Thanks Janice - so good to hear!

Fast and furious

Maddie_D, Feb 2024

Such a blast! Fun way to begin our New Zealand vacation. They took great care of us! They are willing to make it whatever you are comfortable with-joy ride or thrill ride! Thank you!

Thrill seekers wanted

Arthur_B, Feb 2024

It was a whirlwind tour around the bay! Definitely for thrill seekers! We flew through the winding roads at high speeds!

Great adrenaline rush.

CHRISTOPHER_h, Jan 2024

Wayne our driver, very informative & best ever experience, would recommend to anyone. We both would do it again, Best way to see the highlights of the Bay of Islands.

Great bike tour

Mary_A, Dec 2023

The information from the driver Tony was great. The tour was scenic, informative and of course a thrill on the bike.

Will never forget this fabulous experience

Sherry_P, Nov 2023

If I could give this excursion/event/once in a lifetime experience, I would give it 10 stars. Not kidding. It was THE MODT EXHILARATING thing I’ve done maybe ever. Just make your reservation in advance because you want the full hour experience. Britt, our driver was a rock star and Nancy was a great communicator about logistics. The town is so quaint with great food and shopping. DON’T MISS THIS if you are going to Waitangi. JUST GO.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thanks so much Sherry for your great review! Really is a lot of fun... and you obviously LOVED it!! Regards Denise

Scenic wending roads & hold on to your hat!

GuyCramb, Oct 2023

Okay, people, this is a must, at Bay of Islands. 60 min. of touring about the city along the coastline and up into the hills around & about. Our 'tour guide' gave us some interesting commentary when he wasn't zooming us through wending roadways at speeds I'm sure were legal. Thanks for the fun, guys!

Amazing ride

Lynlee_W, Apr 2023

The adrenalin rush was amazing, it was scary at first but then just exhilarating! I have never done anything quite like it and I would be keen to do it again. Very professional operation, very safe and the Driver was knowledgeable and witty. Highly recommended

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Definitely a lot of fun ( with a little bit of scare thrown in...) Glad you enjoyed! Regards Denise & Mark

Thrilling ride

Kay_G, Mar 2023

Great tour, a thrilling spin around Paihia, Bay of Islands. The guys certainly know how to (safely) give you a feel for speed. An interesting view of the area, certainly not humdrum. Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thanks for your great review!
