NZ Travel Guide
Whether you are enjoying a series of sweeping curves, or some technical hairpin bends that test your riding skills, every corner on your New Zealand motorcycle tour will reveal a new and wondrous landscape.
A tour of New Zealand is like visiting all six continents in one landmass about the size of the United Kingdom. Ride past Saharan sand dunes, dramatic mountain ranges and evergreen rain forests. See glacial ice fields, fiords and volcanoes.
The temperate climate allows for all season motorcycle touring, in summer (December, January and February) temperatures usually range from 20-30ºC/68-86ºF. The colder months (June, July and August) can see the average temperature being between 5-16ºC/41-62ºF in the North Island.
New Zealand’s flora and fauna has evolved in isolation. If you are an avid bird watcher, you can choose to meet the shy kiwi, New Zealand’s national bird, and you will definitely meet the cheeky alpine parrots known as keas, and inquisitive wekas along the way.
Take a cruise, as an optional activity and be introduced to New Zealand’s marine life. Depending on the time of year, you may see albatross, fur seals, penguins, dolphins and even whales. The Paradise Motorcycles team can even design a customised eco-tour just for you.
With a population of 4 million, New Zealand is one of the world's least crowded countries. Motorcycle tours in New Zealand allow riders to feel as if they are exploring a primeval land before time. Rich and fascinating history with colonial buildings and modern skylines, tours in NZ offer something for everyone’s taste.

This is my second tour with Mike & Jo and Paradise tours. It could not have been better. Bikes were in excellent condition. Accommodations were great. New Zealand is a beautiful place to visit and Mike found the most wonderful places to stop for Flat White coffee or tea and some of the best pastries I've ever had. Not to mention showing us places we might have missed without his superb knowledge of new Zealand. Hope one day to go back and spend more time in New Zealand. Would highly recommend Paradise for any adventures in New Zealand.
