Awesome Quad bike tour
We were a family of three on Nomad Safari Quad bike tours on the 26/08 and we loved it, Both Niko and Ben were great guides who really took the time out to make sure we loved it even though we were novices, I would do it again and highly recommend it.

Great Skipper's Canyon tour with Justin, thank you!
We just finished an amazing Skipper's Canyon 4WD tour with our guide Justin. It was beautiful scenery and Justin was very knowledgeable, always had some interesting facts about the area and the history and kept the three children and us fully engaged! A really fun trip, with a unique demonstration of gold panning and a nice hot chocolate stop at a viewpoint. We were very lucky with beautiful weather which added to the scenic experience.

Fabulous tour for LOTR fans
Had a wonderful morning tour with Hayden. Pickup was convenient and seamless and our group was small, making the experience more personalized and comfortable. I quite enjoyed all the little stops we made on our way to Glenorchy & Paradise, it was nice to break up the trip and witness firsthand some locations where the movies were filmed. Hayden has excellent knowledge of the behind-the-scenes involved in the making of the movies, and he shared a lot of fascinating insight about the native plants and animals, too. His wonderful sense of humor made the tour feel not only informative but also fun! He also expertly maneuvered the vehicle for some thrilling river crossings and exciting off-roading. The tour ran from around 8 am - 12 pm. I wish I had booked a full day tour; it is well worth the money for such an unforgettable experience. Thank you Hayden and Nomad Safaris!

unmissable experience
Loads of fun. Good training before setting off. Incredible views, amazing tracks. Guides were fantastic, got some speed up and messed around in the mud, but also felt safe and comfortable.

Trip to Paradise!
Our family of four really enjoyed our trip with Angelo. He was informative and interesting and so much fun! We all took several LOTR photos opportunities (my 21 year old took a couple of photos from the Wolverine movie as well!). We were lucky enough to have great weather too. Highly recommend.

BEST DAY EVER!!
If you’re lucky enough to have Benji as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable experience. It’s been seven months since my trip to New Zealand, and I still find myself talking about this tour all the time. Out of everything I did during my travels, this was one of the experiences that has stayed with me the most. Benji has the perfect balance of knowledge, humor, and genuine passion for what he does. He shared so much about the places we visited, kept us laughing throughout the day, and somehow made every stop feel even more special than the last. He also made safety a priority, which let us fully enjoy every adventure without ever feeling worried. What impressed me most was how much we were able to see. The day was so thoughtfully planned, and Benji made the most of every minute without making it feel rushed. It was clear he wanted us to experience as much of New Zealand’s beauty as possible, and thanks to him, we saw some of the most incredible views I’ve ever witnessed. Not to mention has a great eye for a good photo opportunity and captured perfect picture moments! You can tell Benji genuinely cares about creating meaningful experiences for the people on his tours, and that kind of passion is rare. More than half a year later, the memories from that day still make me smile, and I honestly couldn’t recommend this tour more. It was worth every penny, and if I ever find myself back in New Zealand, I’d book another tour with Benji in a heartbeat.

This was a great tour. While transport from Queenstown was offered, I elected to meet at the designated car park on-site. The tour guide met me on-time and was well-prepared. The safety briefing was thorough - it was very clear that safety was a top priority. As someone who had only done quadbiking once before, I really appreciated the thoroughness of the training and the competency test. Despite the rain, the guides did their best to ensure our comfort. They were engaging, professional and fun. It was such a fun experience and I highly recommend it.

We had an incredible time quad biking with Nomad Safari. Our group of four had an amazing time. The instructors were both super friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. The ride itself was an absolute highlight. All protective equipment / gear was provided too. Enjoyed the delicious banana bread and hot chocolate while taking in those stunning Queenstown views. Highly recommend this experience if you're looking for some adventure and fun! Definitely worth it!

El tour de El Señor de los Anillos ha sido genial. Es emocionante ver los escenarios de las películas, no solo por salir en las películas,  sino porque son unos paisajes maravillosos, complementados con explicaciones de las películas y la historia y datos relevantes de Nueva Zelanda y Queenstown.
Nuestros guías han sido Daryl y Rob, han sido muy amables y amistosos, una experiencia que ha merecido la pena, si eres fan de la tierra media, no vas a poder ver muchos de los escenarios si no lo haces con el tour, muchas zonas son privadas y de acceso complicado para vehículos normales.

Did two tours during my time in New Zealand both take you to stunning locations and give you great Lord of the Rings information. One guide was a level above the other, if you get Finley you are in for a good tour! If you only do one Lord of the Rings tour around Queentown do the Glenorachy one, the Queenstown one you don’t really get near the sites but is still worth it for the fun four wheel drive experience and amazing locations you are taken too! Worth doing!

A great way to see more remote parts of the area. Some amazing knowledge abd driving skills shown by our guide (Pieter) who was always clear and helpful as well as informative. Traffic in tge area was very bad so ate into some of our time seeing some LOR sites but still a great day.

Had a great afternoon with Nomads! The Queenstown tour was a very diverse tour. Not particularly and only about Lord of the Rings, but also a lot of information about Queenstowns history, de gold mining era and many more. The 4 weel drive experience through the arrow river was super exciting and fun and it was interesting to search for gold in the river and feel like a miner. Our guide was amazing, had a lot of knowledge and was funny and fun! I can definitely recommend Nomads safari for anybody who is keen on a fun half day with interesting fact, beautiful scenery and fun activities included.

Fantastic quad bike experience for the family of two older adults and 2 younger adults. Daniel was an outstanding guide, who not only ran through the tutorial very efficiently and clearly, he used that evaluation to determine that we could safely explore the more advanced tracks and at some speed over a wide variety of terrains and with breaktaking views.  It was easily the best quad adventure out of the 7 or so we have done around the world.  Highly recommend !

Outstanding adventure had with our guides Benjamin and Petr.  As 60 year old kiwis we came away with huge smiles and so happy we booked the quad safari,  Deb and I rode in the skilled group and had a ball being tested in the mud , creeks and hills. The top of the hill was spectacular for the views , nice addition was a hot chocolate then all the way down to the shotover river for more intrepid adventures.  Yes its not cheap but its amazing value. Highly recommend 👌

Breath taking views along with great thrills of riding your very own 4x4 quad bikes!!

Matt and Peter were very helpful and respectful about all levels of riders, and even took my girlfriend up on their back seat because it was difficult for her to drive her own bike.

It was the perfect scenario, she loved it even more than she would have self driving.

Views are truly amazing, very new views of Queenstown that i have never seen before! (Ive been to QT 3 times!)

Big big recommendation, this was money well spent :)
