What South Pacific Motorcycle Tours Customers say:

A bucket list tour for the best motorcycling riding ever with the best people ever! We had 9 bikes on the 12 Day Southern Alps Spectacular. I was concerned that joining a group of strangers for 12 days could be a real hit or miss experience, but it was of course a huge hit! Mike (tour leader/rider) and Kim and Mikey (chase van) were our constant companions throughout the trip and did a fantastic job. Carole, Hayley and David were at HQ backstopping all the details. The bikes all performed flawlessly with no mishaps or breakdowns at all. Whether you just hire, want to ride on a tour or do self-guided, you can’t go wrong. Highly recommended.

Utterly Fantastic! The tour was so well organized, from the moment of inquiry until the flight out of Christchurch. The whole crew was gracious, accommodating, resourceful, with over the top customer service. We experienced New Zealand from the tops of 2 BMW 800's. It was phenomenal, to say the least. Even with 6 out of 12 days with rain, it didn't matter, we were in NZ! The self guided GPS tour was amazingly accurate and the excursions, plus places to stop and eat, well, there wasn't a bad one in the bunch. Highly recommended to all who ride.

Well, all you folks looking around now for the right motorcycle touring outfit in NZ can just sign on with SPMT. We were there last Jan-Feb and the folks at SPMT are the best. They do what they promise and provided excellent 1200RTs. Our trip of a lifetime was a success in a large part due to these great folks. We just rented and rode our own tour with their advice. PS Mike and Carole thanks for what you do!

From the moment we contacted SPMT with an enquiry, to the end of our 14 Day GPS tour the communications were fantastic - everything went like clockwork and the team at SPMT were amazing. Thank you for organising such a wonderful itinerary, superb accommodation and making sure we had everything we needed during our trip. We really enjoyed the handling of our 2 BMW GS 700’s Lucy & Charlotte. The South Island is truly stunning and the route chosen by SPMT took us through a huge diversity of landscapes. Our sincere thanks to everyone at SPMT for a holiday of a lifetime that will live long in our memories!

I can't say enough about the folks at SPMT, they are wonderful. I did a 23 day two island self guided tour. Working with them on my trip was easy, and fun. They understood it was a trip of a life time and they made it so. The route they put together for me was unbelievable! The B&B's and hotels they used were superb in accommodations and views. If you want to motorcycle New Zealand these are the people to talk with. Thank you Thank you, it was more than I dreamed.
