4WD Adventures - Off Road NZ

Description

Strap your helmet on tight and swallow that lump of adrenaline in your throat, because you are about to experience pure New Zealand off road thrills!

Located in Rotorua, Off Road NZ have been delivering adventure, fun, great memories and lasting impressions since 1992. Their 4WD Bush Safaris and Monster 4X4 Thrill Rides are considered some of the best – if not the best – self-driven, off road vehicle experiences in New Zealand. Whichever option you choose, you can be sure of leaving with a Cheshire Cat smile at the end of your thrill ride.

4WD Bush Safari - self drive
After learning the ropes from your professional and friendly guide (during which time, you will probably be squirming with nerves and anticipation!) you will suit up in your safety and protection gear and get that engine revving. The terrain on the 4WD Bush Safari is definitely unique and packed with exciting challenges, such as thrilling climbs and descents, sharp turns that will leave you sweating and big, huge, muddy, fun puddles. Every second of this safari is filled with fun and action!

Monster 4X4 Thrill Ride - professional driver
The amazing Monster 4X4 is driven by a professional driver – and trust us – you will be glad that they are such terrific drivers as this baby is certainly harder to drive than it looks! The unique 4 wheel steering mechanism allows the Monster to easily tackle the tough New Zealand native bush terrain and the unbelievable trails. You will be white-knuckled as you are taken up over near-vertical slopes, tackle the ‘Widow Maker’ and the ‘Loggers Long Drop’. Definitely one for the thrill seekers.
