About this activity
Once you have signed in at the office, you will be able to begin your adventure. After a short 5-minute walk down to the containers you will get dressed up in the provided wet weather gear, gumboots and helmet.
You will then have a short detailed safety brief before you will test your skills on the two test tracks. The journey will then take you through dense rainforest, riverbeds and grassland all with the back drop of the spectacular Southern Alps. There are plenty of selfie opportunities with a break halfway to give you some local information on the area.
This place is truly special, one of only a handful of places in the world where ice and forest meet in such a spectacular manner and the ATV quads are the ultimate way to view it all. The quad bike adventure is fun in the sun and even better in the rain.
Enjoy a truly memorable adventure as you ride with the guides to gain views of the Franz Josef glacier and its surrounding snow capped peaks.

It was an overall enjoyable experience.
The quad bikes are a buzz! The whole tour was excellent, riding along the river and through temperate rain forest. It is no longer possible to walk up to the glacier for a look, only helicopter access. The quad bike tour is a great alternative to get a good look at the Franz Josef glacier, with limited time. Highly recommend this as an experience. The guides are very safety conscious, and good training is provided at the start of the ride to make sure that you are confident to handle the bikes. The bikes are well-maintained, good wet weather gear is provided.
