Customer Reviews

We had such an amazing time. We had a group of 11 (8 adults and 3 children). 6 adults road on the ATV quad bikes whilst 2 adults accompanied the minors in a 6 seater buggy that our tour guide drove. This was great as it allowed our whole family to enjoy the tour and no one had to sit out. Very informative, tour guides are friendly with a sense of humour. Nice small intimate group setting. Heads up it's a long drive from the turn off of the main street. Keep driving, you're in the right track lol. We will defs come again!

So happy we booked this tour! We had a nervous 13yo but the staff were reassuring and delightful with him. He absolutely loved it! Ellen, our guide was a blast. We all had a lot of fun with her and she added to our experience with her knowledge of the fauna and flora. Highly recommend!

Had an absolutely wonderful time here today on the 2 hour ATV tour. We also got to stop along the way and see a number of interesting sights such as huge trees, vines, lookouts, fruit trees and more. Our guide Ellen (I think that was her name) was amazing - telling us about everything from Cassowaries to hydro electric power plants! We also saw several Cassowaries - including a baby! The tour is definitely worthwhile, especially the 2 hour one - and there's sufficient short breaks along the way to rest your thumb from the throttle. The owner even drove to the front gate to pick me up after my Uber driver refused to drive into the property on the ~2km or so driveway. Friendly staff, great reliable quads, great price and fantastic service. I'd definitely come and do this tour again. Well done, 5 stars!
