    This was the highlight of our trip. We were very well taken care of from the start of the trip. Zoe prep us with the necessary clean gears, gloves, pants , helmets and the mountain bikes were all clean and new looking. The rides were mostly descending so it was fairly easy to the knees. There were thrilling and exciting parts down the mountain as well. Phil was such a great guide and constantly making sure we are ok. It was a great experience overall and I’ll highly recommend this to anyone that wants more than just a nature trip in Tasmania.

    What an awesome day out with Rich leading us for the day !
    We saw so much during the day and it was also great to only have a small group so it felt heaps more personal.
    Big recommendation from me and my partner.

    I’m a 62yr old woman who hadn’t ridden a bike for a least 20 years and loved every minute. The tour was informative, interesting and fun. I would highly recommend this tour and company!

    Our guide Rich and Cam were amazing. I had a bit of trouble getting use to the gears but they were so patient in assisting me. It was an amazing first time experience for mountain cycling. So happy that I manage to join the tour.

    Zoe was knowledgeable of the area and was great with our requirements. My husband rode from the summit and had a ball. Beautiful scenery.

    It was great. But I refuse to write any more. I am not a writer or an author and all you’re getting from me was it was great.

    We had the best time and the ride of our lives with our wonderful guides, Zoe and Phil! We started with them taking us up Mt Wellington by van where we enjoyed the most beautiful views of Hobart. Then the ride began! Zipping down the paved roads was adrenaline filling and so fun. We stopped for multiple photo ops before heading off-road into the forest for a total change of scenery. Just lush and gorgeous. Then it was back on road to bike to our starting point where we dropped off the bikes and our gear. I am not a frequent bike rider and I felt very secure and safe on my bike. Zoe and Phil were always giving us good briefings on what to expect on various legs of the trails and when to slow down or be mindful of certain terrain points. This tour was one of the best we’ve ever experienced!

    Fantastic experience for all ages
    Will rebook next time when in Tassie
    Worth the money and the rainforest was just amazing and peaceful

    Exhilarating half day on mount Wellington. We rode down the top 6ks on tar then relocated to amazing forest trails. if you are reasonably fit and have an average level of confidence on a bike this is highly recommended. Rich was an excellent guide.

    What a fantastic way to spend a morning in Hobart. Zooming down Mt. Wellington. I’m on the wrong side of 60, overweight, and of average fitness, and found the tour easy. Great views with plenty of photo opportunities, Tassie historic facts and some basic mountain bike instructions to keep you at ease. You’r just riding at your own pace. Tour leaders are both knowledgable, and patient. And the best part is when you get back to Hobart, you look up at Mt. Wellington, and think Wow, I just rode down that!

  19. Holly_G

    Rich was a wonderful guide on this amazingly beautiful ride. Please don’t skip the short pedal down from the Pinnacle. Nothing like riding above the clouds, through the clouds and through the giant ferns.

  20. Sarah_O

    A fabulous time spent on this bike ride. Rich was awesome and very informative of the area and Tasmania in general. We were lucky that we were the only ones on the tour so it felt very ‘bespoke’!
    It was a thrill riding down the mountain road and then on to some more challenging terrain which we thoroughly enjoyed.
    Would do this again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone that can pedal!

  21. Patrick_D

    Great experience, tour guide was knowledgeable, experienced and friendly. The ride was amazing, the views, the different climates, the fact we didn’t have to pedal too much…
    Loved it. Highly recommend.
