This was a great experience and the views we got to stop and see where breath taking. The tour guides made us feel very relaxed and at ease about doing this adventure as it was a first time for myself.

The experience was brilliant. The ATVs were amazing. The terrain, the area in which they take us to drive was spectacular. Must try for adventure junkie.

So much fun! Definitely a great experience and the staff were friendly. But beware, this activity is EXTREMELY DUSTY. We were all covered in dust from head to toe, so come prepared with clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or a coverall, a face covering to protect your nose and mouth and some sunglasses/goggles that will protect your eyes! I had breathed in so much dirt/dust that I was sneezing dirt. Fun experience otherwise!

Super fun buggy or quad bike riding. The tour guides are also super fun and prepare to get dusty! We recommend going to balls and bangels across the road after for food.

Ryan (I tnink) our guide was awesome (and a great picture taker!)! So much fun! Would recommend this tour to anyone. The track was fun! We're ready to do it again and come back when our son is old enough to drive his own ATV...see you next year!

If you like off roading you will love this. It’s well organised, safely is priority but they do this without spoiling the fun! After a few test runs we were split into two groups. A fast and a less fast one! They explained it as everyone getting what they want from the experience and it worked. No risk of being stuck behind the slower drivers if you like a fast ride and for the slower drivers no pressure. The team are all about everyone having an enjoyable experience.

We did a family of four buggy tour and had the best time. We were the only ones on the tour so we had an exclusive with our guides, who had lots of local knowledge and made it a great experience. We got to see Queenstown and surrounding areas when we were able to stop and take some great pictures of the area. Would highly recommend this tour and company to anyone wanting to experience a fun way to see Queenstown!!
