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.

If you’re looking for something fun, different and a bit of an adventure, go on the Gold Diggers Trail. Pretty scenery in the Karangahape Gorge, great opportunity to walk through gold mining tunnels along forest paths, see beautiful streams and waterfalls. Miles is a great host and guide, very knowledgeable about local rides, history and the Tauranga area. Yummy packed lunch. Fun riding an electric mountain bike, flys up hills! Safe, relaxing and well organised day out for a huge range of ages and cycling skill levels.

We spent a really fun and interesting 3 hours touring the Tauranga harbour and estuaries. The ebikes were excellent and Miles’ local knowledge was invaluable. We saw areas of town and had views that we never would have had otherwise. A great day!

We rode EBiikes with Day Trippers to the gorge and it was excellent! Mikes is a wonderful guide and host and took us to an incredible waterfall. The bikes are top notch and suitable for anyone who can ride.

We were very impressed with the professional and customer focus of the whole trip. The food supplied was well prepared and yummy. The E Bikes experience was a winner with my wife, and myself could lead to new bikes for the future. My wife and I look forward to the opportunity to experiencing future biking tours with this company. Well done and all the best with the future of your company.

Can not thank miles and Joel enough! Had the most amazing time on their ebikes. Both so friendly and couldn’t do enough to make it the most enjoyable trip. They picked us up from the door and we didn’t stop smiling right up until they dropped us off.
The bikes were totally amazing, so much fun! At first I personally was a bit nervous as I’m unfit. Although I hadn’t nothing to worry about they bikes made the whole 20k so easy! The route we went on was so beautiful and it was all so relaxed. We went at our own pace and there were no expectations. There’s was a few stops, in which a beautiful picnic was provided. Very well done and very tasty, lovely drinks also. Water was given out all the way throughout.
Overall a totally amazing experience and great opportunity to see New Zealand from the saddle. When I come back to New Zealand I will definitely get back in touch and do another trip.
Both Joel and miles thank you so much, you were amazing hosts!!

Brand new bikes and van, well organised and engineered the day to our requests. The final section of the hauraki rail trail is virtually flat, good experience on an e bike, thanks Miles.

10 friends and myself went on a 3 hour ride around Tauranga harbour and it was absolutely brilliant. Well organised and such great staff who make sure you have lots of fun and enjoy the experience. You dont need lots of biking experience to do this ride.

Hi Fi,
thanks, we are so pleased you had a great time with your besties on our Harbour Hoorah! ride. The DayTrippers had a great time hosting you, probably one of the fastest bunch we have had?
At Daytrippers we believe there is nothing better than a bike ride with friends, food and laughter - great for the soul!
Cheers
Miles.
