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.

We had the best fun with Matt today doing a buggy tour. We took our 9 year old son and 10 year old daughter. Matt was an awesome tour guide. He was fab with the kids and he made sure my husband was driving the Buggy safely and correctly before we set off. We followed him up and down ridges on some fabulous tracks the company have set up. Through trees and up to two amazing lookouts with the best views of the lakes and mountains.
Such a professional company who met us at their office and drove us to the site. A family run business where good service is still a priority. Matt took photos for us on the day and emailed them to us on the day for no extra cost.
If you are looking for a family activity while in Queenstown then I highly recommend booking a trip.

From beginners to experienced riders, they offer a great experience. We started on the intermediate tracks to get comfortable and then they took us to more adventurous tracks and had a blast on the curves, bumps, and jumps. They even had smaller vehicles for my 2 children to ride and they took them through the beginner program before the guides determined their readiness to go on the more challenging tracks.

Great adventure. They took a lot of care over our level of ability and it was clear that safety was paramount. Fantastic views, equipment was well maintained and instructors/guides were very much part of our trip. The family members, work on and in the business fully recommend to all levels and ages.

Thoroughly recommend these self drive buggy tours if you’re in Queenstown. A great adrenaline buzz driving on forest tracks that look impossible but the buggies handle with ease. With decent climbs, steep drops, mud banks, twists and turns this trip will give even seasoned drivers a thrill while also taking you to some remarkable scenic points. We were in a 2 seater but 4 seater version also available for families.

Really enjoyed the chat on the minibus there and back with Matt about life and everything. Brendan was taking me on the hour and a half quad ride. He assessed my skills really well and gave me the advice I needed to ride properly, which was very much appreciated. The tracks were very technical and challenging, which suits me perfectly and from a difficult start, I quickly became confident and enjoying every minute. Thanks guys.

Myself and 4 friends did the dirt bike tour. It was so much fun. There is terrain to suit every rider.
We had a mixed group from experienced to fairly novice so were split into two groups, everyone had an awesome day and were encouraged to push ourselves.
The guides were very experienced and the DR250's were perfect for the type of riding on offer.
Can not recommend enough.

Once again the guys at 4x4 adventures did not disappoint, this is the 5th time we have adventured with the team 3x with the quads and now 2x with the SxS. Our guide for the crazy afternoon was Connor who is very clearly passionate about his job and making your experience the best it can be. There were up’s there were downs and around & rounds there was mud (a lot of mud), rocks, forests, cliffs and everything in between. If you decide to go on an adventure with this crew and do not believe it’s the best quad or SxS adventure around I’m going to need you to check your pulse. I have done quads in Australia, America, Mexico, Hawaii & Bali and Scott,Connor & the guys are the best in the business. The adventures are tailored to your ability’s and they will split you into groups of similar skill levels which makes for a an awesome time. I can say with 100% certainty that we will be booking again when we come back. Myself my wife (40’s) and our son (17) rate this 10/10

We went out on the buggies for a tour with Dennis and Lachey and it was brilliant. These guys seriously know their stuff- the landscape, the wild life, history and their machines. We felt so safe but yet had so much fun hitting the tracks hard!
The guys are really hospitable and easy going yet you just feel they are switched on and in control.
Highly recommend Off Road Adventures for a thrill seeking, sight seeing experience! 10/10!

Went on 4x4 off road vehicles thru bush, and challenging terrain. Hair raising, but plenty of hairy moments, absolutely enjoyed the whole adventure. Our leader, Brady did a fantastic job in guiding us thru this challenge course.
Would recommend to any body that wants to burn off stress. And feels a need for speed in a confined space.

Looking to book an afternoon tour for beginning of February, but website says it's unavailable. Is this because too early to book or is it full?
Written 2 September 2019
Skip the website and call them directly I reckon. They fit us in last minute and the amount of guides and bikes they have shouldn't be an issue. 2 tours a day too....

I will be in Queenstown at the end of March, trying to decide whether to go in the morning or afternoon? Advantage/disadvantage to either one? Please advise as I am planning my days. Thanks!
Written 15 February 2019
Yeah I would say time doesn't really matter! Weather would be the main aspect to consider. We went in the afternoon the day after it had rained and that was considered perfect by the guys running it. If it is too dry, the bikes kick up alot of dust and that takes away from the ride. Puddles are a great addition to the track so don't be scared off by rain!

My kid is 3, 6 and 7. Can they ride it too?

Hi Kelvyn,
Thanks for getting in touch, the minimum age to ride their own little kids quad bike is 6 years old so unfortunately there is nothing we can offer that could accommodate having a 3 year old onsite. Cheers, Gary
