F.A.Q.
Prepare for your exhilarating Trip
What Should I wear?
For your comfort we recommend you bring an extra layer or two with you. It can get a bit windy on the trike. Dress for the weather conditions on the day of your tour. Don’t panic if you forget as we keep two spare jackets and gloves on board in case you feel the cold. Don’t forget your camera, sunglasses and sunscreen.Covered shoes must be worn at all times.
How many passengers can you take at a time?
The trike can seat two passengers and the pilot. There is a minimum of two people required to book on all trike tours. Unfortunately you cannot drive the Trike.
Can you take children?
Children must be over the age of 7 and accompanied by an adult. New Zealand law requires children under 7-years-old to be restrained in an approved child restraint. The trike unfortunately cannot accommodate this.
Do I have to wear a seat belt?
Yes.New Zealand law requires you to wear a seatbelt while on board the trike.
Do I need to wear a helmet?
It’s not a legal requirement, but your safety and comfort is paramount, you will be required to wear a helmet while on board. We will provide the helmet for you.
You will also be required to wear a hair net (this is a mandatory requirement). This will be supplied.
All helmets are sanitised before each tour.
Will I be safe?
Absolutely. Our trike goes through stringent independent safety inspections every 6 months as required by New Zealand law. The trike is inspected by our pilots before every tour, and every two months by our service team. Our trike is the latest trike imported into NZ from Germany and has plenty of safety features. Our Pilot has more than 40 years’ experience riding motorcycles and trikes, so you’re in safe hands. You’re also required to wear a seatbelt and helmet. Our pilots obey all New Zealand road rules at all times. Our trike tours are about enjoying the ride and capturing the beauty around you, not speed.
Where do I meet you?
The Remarkable’s Run and The Coronet Peak Lookout leave from opposite Eichardt’s Hotel, corner of Marine Parade and Ballarat Street. The Glenorchy Jewel, The Cardrona tour and The Gibbston Valley tour will have you collected from your hotel within the Queenstown CBD.
