Awesome Experience

I did this with my son and we had an absolute blast doing this. Some of the tracks were an easy undertaking with others being a challenge. It was hands down one of the best activities we did in the South Island and I recommend everyone do this! We created awesome memories and had a blast doing so!

Super awesome experience!

The three trails provide for more than enough thrill over the 2 hr period. Super easy to start. We went during a period where there were basically no people so our wait times were very short. I’d do it again but probably not at full price.

Unfortunately unorganized

Carting itself was awesome fun wish had more trails to go on fun times .only problem was safety video ate into our 2hours and they didn't even have enough carts ready for everyone to get started straight away which was annoying especially when you wanted to get maximum runs in for $130 for 2 hours was more like 1 1/2 hours.so something that I hope they will work on and improve on what they say .they do say approximately 2 hours maybe they needed to say approximately 1-2 hours

Awesome experience!

This was more than expected. The whole family enjoyed it including our 8yo. He was nervous at first but was into it after the first run. Highly recommended!!!
