Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had a half day tour with Scott. Great tour of the local area. Informative but also plenty of challenging riding! Will definitely be back. Thanks again!

Spent a wonderful, fun afternoon with Scott Columb splashing thru rivers, exploring canyons and riding the buggies. The tour was fascinating, hearing about everything from the perspective of a native. Scott knew his stuff and had a GREAT sense of humor to put up with us!

Absolutely a must do when in Queenstown.

After 10yrs since last riding this was the perfect way to get back into the seat. Riding with friends in our mid-50's, Scott was a thorough professional to ensure we were riding safely, while still allowing plenty of fun and challenges. We covered nearly 200km over 2 days of stunning country, broken up with needed refreshments breaks and loads of history about the area. Scott kindly organised a 90 minute quad ride for our wives to start day 2 which they thoroughly enjoyed! Expert or novice, theres a ride able to be designed for you.

Did an all day adventure bike guided tour around Queenstown. Our guides were Scott and Dennis and they were fantastic. They found great tracks relevant to our abilities. They gave informative talks on the regions history. Highly recommend. A must do. Will do again.

Our first time to ride the quads, and we enjoyed it. Would recommend for people who have never driven a quad before, they will teach you and look after you through the step hills (which is exciting to ride on)

My college-age daughter and I had a fantastic first experience on ATVs with the Off Road Adventure tour. Our guide, Sam, was kind, fun and attentive to safety--he really spent a lot of time watching us, giving clear direction and helping us grow in confidence as the activity progressed. He enabled all skill levels in the group to have fun. Overall, an awesome experience with spectacular views of Queenstown. Thanks, Sam, for also providing the best dining and activity recommendations we got in New Zealand!

We're delighted to hear that you and your daughter had a great first ATV adventure with us. It's great to hear that Sam's guidance made the Quads enjoyable for all skill levels and that you felt safe and confident throughout. We'll be sure to let Sam know to keep up the good work & keep the food recomendations flowing!

Wow. What an awesome thing to have done as a family (me, the Missus and two teenagers - 16 year old daughter and 15 year old son). The team at Off Road were friendly from the offset and it made the difference.

My daughter was the only one who had not quad biked before, the rest of us had done it a couple of times. We spent a good 30 to 40mins of training / driving around and over various obstacles (turns, through water, up hills, down hills, plenty of mud!). All in preparation for heading up the mountain.

Ultimately, my daughter decided to hop on Sam’s quad (our guide) to the top. She just wasn’t quite ready. She loved the ride up though! It was challenging, but all the training helped. The view was awesome at the top.

We were giving full protective gear (see photos), we need it as it had rained in the morning.

Highly recommended.
