Buggies in the mountains with Diego - Our guide Diego was fantastic-showed us all the required training to enjoy the afternoon-we had a mix of young, middle aged and elderly in our group and all where accommodated well. A+ and for the single ladies out there AA++

Awesome! - What an amazing experience!! Led by Stephan and Bas who really looked after our family of 7, this was simply epic.. We all had a fabulous time off-road in our buggies, getting dusty (which was a huge part of the fun!), but the views were amazing! Highly recommend!!

Awesome fun! - I did the family in one atv tour. Our guide Stefan was cool and let us have some fun since we did them before. Really fun experience. Way better than the atv tour we did while in Alaska. The tour takes you up to a great view of queenstown on top of the hill/mojntain and then they take you down back to the starting point. If you are in queenstown this a definite must do.

Legendary Must-do Experience - Stefan was a legend. What an exceptional tour guide! We wanted to drive side-by-sides (buggies) in New Zealand and have experience in the U.S. Stefan took us on some awesome trails that did not let us down. Highly recommend!!

Great adventure - even in the wet - Fantastic adventure with Sam through a beautiful property of rugged terrain. Great views and narration. We did it in the rain which gave the ride even more fun. Thanks for the great time. Highly recommend this outdoor adventure.

Epic afternoon with a great guide - Excellent afternoon experience - Stefan was a great guide and was able to tailor the afternoon commiserate with the experience/confidence of the group (which was just us as a solo by pure luck)! Would highly recommend for anymore that enjoys bike riding/4wd/anything with an engine.
