Definitely Recommend! - We had an amazing Quad Bike tour! The staff were very friendly, the views were amazing, and the quad bike trail was really fun! This was our first time riding quad bikes and we were a little nervous, but the guide, Hanna, drove at a pace we were comfortable with and stopped along the way to teach us history about the area. Would highly recommend!

Great staff! So helpful and accommodating! - I couldn’t possibly say enough lovely things about The Cardrona Quad Bike experience! The staff & guides were incredibly helpful and kind! They called us the morning of our booking to ask about how we would be arriving and let us know about some road closures that impacted our route from Queenstown. They were patient with our group as we arrived quite a bit late (due to said road closures). Our guide was so positive and kind throughout the entire experience, took photos for us at some of the view points, and ensured we all had a blast!

Once in a lifetime experience - Once in a lifetime adventure! Views were maxing against the snow cap mountains, tussock grass and little lambs! It was pure 2 hours of riding on different terrains, ground, grass, puddle of water, and the road which allows u to drive at full speed! The guide took photos and videos of us. Though it was required at a fee, we felt it was well deserved for the amazing views that she was able to take of us. Highly recommend!

Super fun quad trails, great guides and rare snow! - Went on the quad bike tour. It was a rare weather day for heavy snow in the area, we lucked out on such a unique experience – I hope some future customers luck out in the same way. Guides were helpful and willing to have fun! They were great photographers too! This was the first time I ever touched snow and what a magnificent way to do so near the peaks at Cardrona Valley!

Awesome Experience - Awesome experience, Summer was our guide who was very knowledgeable about the past history of the area which was very interesting to learn about. Going up to the top and driving through the snow certainly was an unforgettable experience. Thanks Summer!!

Safe, fun, and 100% worth it! - Kelly took my friend an I on a beautiful Quad bike tour around the beautiful mountains in Cardrona. During this experience she pointed out things which contributed to the history of this beautiful old town. She was a very bubbly and supportive tour guide, ensuring safety while also providing a spectacular adventure with amazing views, flora and fauna. Couldn’t recommend this experience enough! Thank you

DO NOT recommend - Sadly we were miss informed when asked if there will be driving in snow. Right before we came we asked if there is snow and they told us yes. That was most of the experience that we were looking forward to. Very disappointing, honestly a waste of money, don’t appreciate insincerity. On top of all that, pictures were taken of us through out the trip on the guides iPhone without asking only to be asked to pay extra at the end to receive them. The guide wasn’t driving a quad bike which made it difficult to follow her track. DO NOT recommend.
