Self Guided New Zealand Motorcycle Tours

Planet Chopper’s Self-guided motorcycle tours are the ideal way to travel, we pre-route the itinerary into a GPS and pre-book hotels so that you can travel with freedom, confidence and zero pressure. New Zealand is a surprisingly big country. Whether your motorbike trip is 3-days or 12 days, you need a clear plan of attack. 

By choosing to do one of our self guided motorcycle tours in New Zealand you eliminate the risk of missing out on what only locals know about. Motorcycle rental is great for short blasts around the cities but on big trips to the Southern Alps or from north to south island our self-guided tours are highly recommended.
