Queenstown: Guided Dirt Bike Ride – private off-road stier

Great group of guys running the tour. Really thorough with making sure you know what you are doing before they take you up the mountain. Was a huge amount of fun. Thanks so much fellas!!!!

Towards my trip to New Zealand I was looking for an opportunity to go off-roading in the unique landscapes of this beautiful country. - we contacted Scott and he put together a perfect plan for me. I had a wonderful experience! From the professional guidance to the stunning views, I highly recommend it to all off-road riding enthusiasts !

Had an incredible experience touring Skipper Canyon road. It was a technical ride; challenging with an awe inspiring backdrop. The WR250 was the perfect bike and our guides were excellent.

Had a brilliant day! Diageo our tour guide was exceptional with his ability & knowledge! Highly recommend this experience!

Was loads of fun even though I never rode dirt bikes (or any motorbikes). The instructors are amazing and they will cater the tour to everybody's individual experience level. I thought I may have been in over my head, but turned out to be a fantastic experience thanks to Snowy!

Absolutely awesome afternoon out in Skippers Canyon with Scott and Snowy. Fantastic from start to finish, to making sure we were comfortable riding through to showing is some epic trails in Skippers. Can't rate this high enough. There is NO ONE else in Queenstown that offers what DBTNZ do, don't hesitate and book now!

We did the dirt bike tour on the Suzuki 250s with our guide Diego. He was very helpful and instructive to make sure we were doing things correctly and safely. We learned some new skills and Diego had us riding right at the edge of our ability so we had a nice level of challenge which kept things fun and interesting. All of the gear we needed was provided. The bikes were in good condition and worked well.

Very impressed!! A good friend and I recently took part in a ride that I’ll never forget. We booked a half day trip through Skippers Canyon under the guidance of Scott and the team at Dirt Bike Tours in Queenstown. This was my second visit to Queenstown and, being an Aussie country boy, I was eager to slip away from the more touristy areas and seek out some of New Zealand’s stunning natural beauty. Well we sure picked the week for it… non-stop rain in the lower lying areas, good snow fall up high, many land slides reported and weather warnings for wind gusts reaching >130kph. It seemed every activity around had been cancelled, along with all the flights, and I thought our bike ride would be too, However, I was wrong! We met Scott in Queenstown, who jumped out of his car wearing Moto X boots and looked so excited to get on the bikes and have a great time. To be honest, I had a lot of concerns at this point and wanted to know the logistics and safety measures in place… I love adventure but I’ve also got a mortgage to pay. After a good conversation and briefing I could tell this was a professional setup. Scott outlined the gear they would provide to keep us warm and protected, the abundant route options to cater to the conditions and our skill level, the safety gear he would carry in the case of an emergency and the vast experience and knowledge he has of the area. Additionally, the Yamaha’s we rode were in great condition and having the option of a 250 or 450 allowed us to choose our riding style for the day…. Lots of playful revs and gear changes or good old fashion power and lazy torque! Before we set off Scott puts our doubts at ease and guaranteed we would both have a great time….. and I’m very happy to say he was right! Our experience was everything I was looking for in a good adventure/enduro ride. We traversed remote beautiful landscapes and challenged our riding abilities without ever feeling like we were in danger. Scott is a great rider and was able to gauge our abilities quickly, setting a pace that was fun but never pushed us beyond our capabilities. This pace allowed me to follow his lines and watch how he navigated fast flowing water and obstacles on track, helping me to learn some new tricks as we rode. The biggest challenge I faced during our ride was trying to keep my eyes on the track, the scenery is simply amazing! We saw snow capped mountains scattered with wild goats that led down into deep gold rich rivers that still held many relics from the gold rush era. Best of all, we didn’t see any large buses full of tourists pushing in front of us to get a selfie while throwing up a peace sign… we only had the howling wind through the canyon and the roar of rushing water down the swollen river. At the end of our ride we had smiles from ear to ear and had created so many great stories that you’d need at least a few beers to retell properly! The hardest part now is trying to organise another trip back to Queenstown so we can jump on one of their multi day tours and see more of what the beautiful South Island has to offer. It’s an enduro/adventure riders paradise!

2 of us road for the day with Scott had the best time on various terrain. Loved the ride, the history of the area. Road the most dangerous road on the planet. If your into true adventure, this is the place to get it. Thanks Scott, had a blast!

We had the best time on our side-by-side buggy during our Off-Road Adventure. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Our tour guide could see my husband's driving ability, and he took him on some tracks while we scaled the hillside. The view from the top was spectacular. My husband and I would do the tour again and would recommend it.
