Fantastic experience: Had our end of year work do here on a mixture of quads and dirt bikes. All the boys had a blast and would highly recommend it, would definitely look at doing this again

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Adventure Trail Rides for all your adrenaline needs! We came here for our work function this year and it was by far some of the best fun we have had on quad bikes. Gary took us through some beautiful scenery and was very knowledgeable about the native forestry and wildlife. Lots of laughs and fun was had - couldn't be happier with our experience :)

Fantastic experience: Great tour on the quad bikes with Gary who was awesome and very knowledgeable about the area. I haven’t had much experience on quad bikes and felt completely comfortable and really enjoyed myself. Would happily do it again. It was an experience we’ll never forget! Thank you again Gary

Fantastic experience: We had an amazing day on the quad bike tour with Glanville. The scenery was so stunning and it was lots of fun going through the rivers. He was very safety conscious and always made sure everyone was comfortable. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Ich habe die Tour gebucht, da ich schon seit langem einmal Enduro ausprobieren wollte und Neuseeland dafür einfach der perfekte Spot ist. Ewig weite Felder, dutzende Berge und eine riesen Auswahl an Trails. Grenville hat uns für einen Tag mitgenommen und uns die Umgebung von Springfield gezeigt. Das onboarding war simpel, die Bikes in sehr gutem Zustand und er hat Rücksicht auf unsere Skilllevel genommen. Angepasst an unsere Fähigkeiten, hat er uns auf Trails unterschiedlicher Schwierigkeit geführt und dabei gut gefordert, aber nicht überfordert. Wir hatten steile Climbs, sehr technische Passagen und spaßige Wasserdurchfahrten. Und die Aussicht die nach jedem Anstieg auf uns gewartet hat war Wahnsinn! Die Tour entsprach genau meinen Vorstellungen und ich würde sie jederzeit wieder buchen.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. We were complete motorbike noobs but Grenville patiently and quickly got us on our way. The riding was super fun and the scenery was wonderful.

Elena Matthews 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely awesome from start to finish. We took a 2 hour quad bike tour while docked on a cruise ship (booked independently) and the amazing staff at Adventure Trail Rides helped me organise private transport to and from the adventure centre. The tour itself was amazing, with the experienced Georgie at the helm we saw some beautiful scenery and had an absolute blast! I would recommend Adventure Trail Rides to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Georgie was an awesome guide and we had tons of fun on the quads. Don’t visit tourist spots like queenstown for such a tour. Go to Springfield and enjoy the beautiful landscape there.

Fantastic experience: You absolutely get your moneys worth, highly recommend to everyone. Half day trip with Grenville. 2X Dirt Bikes, 3x Quads with friends. Incredible experience, learnt plenty off Grenville, we were well looked after, had a huge amount of fun on the tracks. He sussed us out and adjusted where we went based on our skills to make sure we had the most fun possible. Absolutely stunning views. We'll be back again soon!

Fantastic experience: Family of 4 Quad Biking. We had a fantastic time with Georgie on the 2 hour summit trail. A fun and exciting way to see a stunning part of the country side. A great activity for a family trying to find something that will keep everyone happy.

Rich Rowley 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly Recommend! Had a 3 day tour with my 2 boys. 1 had never ridden a motorcycle, the other only had limited experience. Grenville was an amazing instructor, built their confidence, and took us on an amazing 3 day adventure, finishing with some really challenging trails. Grenville is a perfect guide with great local knowledge. A fantastic experience and also a chance to see some stunning places that you can't normally access.

Positive experience: Beautiful spot, cool guide! Only took us out for 1 hr 25 mins rather then the full 2 hrs and spent a ALOT of time opening and closing farmers gates which was disappointing. Decent trail though, good amount of fun spots, creaks, hill climbing ect. All farmers field. Great view!

Robert Wheeler 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Well worth the time and money. Started with a quadbike tutorial then to the summit and back with plenty of time for pictures along the way (lots to see, don't want to give any surprises away ). We felt safe the entire time, not too slow and never felt left behind. All in all a great experience; thanks Georgie!

Steve Neville 6 years ago

Positive experience: Fantasic three days riding round the Banks Peninsula, hills north of Springfield and Lees Valley. Bikes were great and were modified for conditions. Grenville was highly knowledgeable. Four stars as a caution that off road motorcycling does not come cheap plus you can sometimes get a discount by using something like bookme.co.nz which I didn’t realise; and others appeared to have done.

kevin hosken 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: We did the 2 hour summit tour and it was far better than I could've imagined, amazing views the whole time and our guide Georgia was very nice. It has a very small and authentic feel just like your going to a friend's farm and they're taking you around for a ride. Highly recommend.

Gary Duffy 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great day, I was a complete beginner and I was taught everything I needed to know. Tracks cater to all levels of experience. Great way to see some of the Canterbury countryside that normally not accessible to the public.
