Guided 400cc quad bike tour on Queenstown Hill with full training, safety gear and transport from Queenstown, plus hilltop views and tailored routes.

Tour Overview

Ride a fully automatic 400cc quad bike on Queenstown Hill, with 4WD and full training provided before you set out. Nomad Quad Safaris caters for different experience levels, so the route can be tailored to the ability of the group while keeping the focus on safe, controlled riding.

With exclusive access to Queenstown Hill, Nomad Safaris uses a network of trails that cross different types of terrain. As you ride, the experience shifts between practical handling and open views, giving you time to get comfortable on the ATV while still enjoying the setting.

The tour leads up to the hilltop for panoramic views over Queenstown, adding a clear destination to the ride rather than simply circling a track. Safety equipment and clothing are included, and transport from Queenstown is provided, which keeps the day straightforward from the start.

This is an active outdoor tour built around quad biking rather than sightseeing alone. The combination of training, automatic bikes, and guided access to Queenstown Hill makes it suitable for a range of riders, from first-timers to those with more confidence on uneven ground.

Guides are trained to recognise potential safety concerns, including rider size and strength. This may restrict participation based on known risk factors.

If, during this training session, our guides assess that a rider is not competent or confident enough to safely operate the bike, they will not be allowed to continue riding on the tour. In some cases, guests may be offered the option to ride pillion (as a passenger) on a guide’s bike.
