A wild ride - Our guide, Cody explained each obstacle and then stood back as we drove through them. It was a great thrill. Especially the “Luge”. Well worth the time. After we had a wild romp in a Monster 4x4 behind an expert driver through truly rough and beautiful terrain. I highly recommend

Freak of nature - We arrived an hour early but it wasn't an issue. Went on monster truck first, got kitted out in helmets and wet gear as it was raining...it was fantastic fun, then on to driving a 4x4 over the terrain. Hubby did the driving as it was his birthday treat......omg...what fun.....hubby grinning from ear to ear.....me not so much at the luge lol.......wished we hadn't been the last car as we missed opportunities to see others doing the thrill drops

Family Fun - Desperate for a day out, this was a perfect family afternoon activity. Conquered the self drive track then thrilled on the monster 4x4 ride. We are still talking about it and recommending to everyone!

An absolute must! - My partner and I visited Off Road NZ during our stay in Rotorua, and it’s definitely one of the best activities we did! For anyone who wants something a bit different, this is definitely a must. We did the Freak of Nature package which included the 4WD Bush Safari and 4x4 Monster Thrill Ride. The 4WD Bush Safari was amazing. You drive the vehicle yourself and a guide walks around the track and communicates via radio to tell you where to go. You go through deep water, mud, up hills, steep drops and there are a few challenges which were heaps of fun! The tracks are well made but still make you feel like you’re actually off-road. “The Luge” drop was definitely a highlight. You also go through some really deep water and on a steep My partner has owned trucks before and done a lot of 4WDing and still had a great time. Obviously you have to go relatively slow around the track but there are some more technical and challenging bits to make it exciting! Our guide was Cory and he was amazing at explaining everything and made the trip lots of fun! He was a great guide and also had plenty of knowledge about the area etc The Monster Ride was great fun too! As someone who has done plenty of adrenalin activities, I thought this might be a bit mundane for me - but it was very thrilling and loads of fun! The 4x4 was crazy and the track has lots of twists and turns. Overall an amazing experience! All the staff were super friendly and it was a great facility, I can’t wait to come back one day!
