Take your gf and let her drive! - This was so fun that we had to go back again the next day. Went with my gf during a trip, and we both are pretty novice. Some quad bike experience3 during out childhood was our only background. But these guys will take care of you and help you have fun at your level. On our second day they thought my gf was being hilariously excited. We also drove safely and capably on the first day. So when we went back, they took us on a way more challenging tour. You should really book a tour, this was the highlight of our New Zealand vacation. BTW my gf wants to buy a side-by-side now

Awesome Skippers Canyon - An amazing trip through Skippers Canyon - Scott was our host/driver and his knowledge and enthusiasm for this unbelievable environment was outstanding. It is wonderful to listen to the history of the region of Skippers and Queenstown and the general surrounding areas. He knew all of the best photo opportunities. This trip is not for the faint hearted as the road is challenging but Scott’s skill definitely put us at ease. We had an awesome time and recommend this as a must do when in this region. It is refreshing to see such passion for our very special country.

Awesome afternoon 5 mins from Queenstown - Thanks Scott for an absolutely awesome arvo on the buggies. The quick break in the middle to shoot some clay stopped it off. If your sharing drivers the 2nd half of the drive was incredible....
