What South Pacific Motorcycle Tours Customers say:

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!

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.

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!

From the comprehensive pre-trip info to the pick-up of the very well maintained bikes and the induction provided, we were really impressed by the professionalism of Carole, Mike and the team. The GPS tour was very well set up and our B&B accommodation was top notch. We’ll definitely be back for more!

Amazing 24 day self-guided tour of the North and South Island! In January my friend and I hired bikes from SPMT and had a fantastic time. Carole, Mike & Co were just great – professional, helpful and very friendly. I would highly recommend them and am planning on repeating the experience as soon as possible!
