She even refunded the extra summit fee as we couldn’t fit that in anymore. Bikes and helmets were great. Would definitely recommend. We just rode on our own, and trails weren’t busy at all. Outstanding customer service!!

  Rainforest and Mt Wellington mountain bike ride. - Had a fantastic time with our guide Rich and with help from Zoe. The rainforest ride was just beautiful and quite easy. The summit descent was a highlight and the... read more added bonus of snow on the ground and a light fall of snow as we descended made it just beautiful. Thanks TMBA for a memorable day.

Our guides were wonderful, friendly and very informative about the local flora, fauna and history.
The tracks are suitable for a variety of levels but if you haven’t ridden a bike off sealed roads, it can take some getting used to but once again our guides gave us hints and tips on riding throughout the course.
I would definitely recommend this experience to any visitor of Hobart

  Excellent experience and guides were awesome. Riding through the snow was an incredible feeling with beautiful scenery.  - Such a great bike tour with loads to see and very helpful guides. Beautiful scenery and incredible experience cycling in the snow

The mt wellington start was a real treat, brilliant views - very cold and rich had brought extra warm gear which was essential! The rainforest section and later sections ensured a real variety of views, terrain and history.
A great morning out.

  Best experience in Tassie!  - There had been a big dump of snow overnight and we were excited about it but also concerned we wouldn’t be able to ride from the top.
We turned... read more up to check in and our pre measured bikes were labelled and ready to go. As anticipated, the summit was closed so we rode a 10km forest ride from Fern Tree, which was beautiful and it certainly warmed us up! By the time we returned to the van, the summit was open and we headed up there with the masses. The view was glorious. So clear, white and fresh (the temp “felt like” -7 degrees 🥶). The professional decision was made that it was too dangerous to ride due to patches of black ice and heavy traffic. The party of 7 agreed.
We drove to a location further down the mountain and enjoyed a guided downhill bush ride all the way back to the office.

Our family group of 3 (54, 52 & 17th) was thrilled with the tour and knowledgeable tour-guide, Richard, and very grateful to even see the summit. We’re keen to do it again, next time we visit Tassie.

Rich fitted the bikes to us and gave us clear instructions and explained things when we asked questions about dual suspensions bikes as we hadn’t ridden these before. In the shuttle to the summit, Rich was full of facts and info about the mountain and showed us where the north-south track started so we didn’t miss the turn off on our descent. All in all, a fantastic experience!

  Don't miss this one  - Short and sweet feedback AAAWWWWESOME!!!!!!! all of it, arrangements, the trail, sharing interesting facts.

  Sunday, February 16th, bike tour.  - Start to finish, this bike tour was wonderful. Upon arrival to our morning meeting point, we met Zoe, then we met Phil. Zoe got us all squared away... read more with gear, and safety equipment. Nice warm gloves, a good helmet, and a warm coat was offered if needed. Also, since the start of the ride would be quite windy and cold, hand warmers were provided. Both used for hands and for toes too. Thanks for those. Us, along with 2 other couples, were loaded in the van and with bicycles in tow, taken to the Mt. Wellington summit. That in itself was a bonus of the tour. A bike fitting on the summit, along with a ride around the summit to familiarize ourselves with the bikes, had us ready to start the first part of our downhill ride. I will say the bikes were of high quality, and well taken care of. I felt safe and secure in the saddle. For the first part of the tour Phil drove the van and trailer behind us, to act as a warning to vehicles coming up behind us. With prearranged stops along the way to regroup and check in, we made it to our transfer point. Bike’s trailered, we were driven to the other side of the mountain for an even more fun ride all the way back down through the rainforest, to our starting point. This being led by Phil, on his bike. So much more was experienced during the ride, including wonderful commentary and information from Phil. He did such a good job with us. It was safety first for Phil and his time with us. The tour lasted over 4hrs. The time flew by. This was a quality ride, and we would absolutely do it again if we had the chance. Thank you Phil, and Zoe.

I would highly recommend this ride to others!
