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.

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.

Trip of a lifetime! 
When talking with a former work colleague about my intention to do a motorbike tour in New Zealand he did not hesitate to recommend South Pacific Motorcycles. Carole, Kim and Hayley were so responsive to my every need and request when planning my trip and the itinerary. Upon arrival at SPM I was up and on my bike within an hour and on the road, after bike checks and safety briefings. The BMW GS F700 was fantastic and perfect for the roads.
It really makes a huge difference to be able to personalize a trip and be actively involved in all the options and it makes things so easy to pay once for bike, B&Bs and activities up front.
SPMT checked up every couple of days to ensure everything was to my satisfaction and also to inform of ant weather warnings or re-rerouting that might be required.
A fantastic 2,700km tour of the South Island and many memories to take home with me.

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!
