Off The Rails 2023

Some of the reviews we have recieved lately..

2025 February Tour - 100 per cent recommend this tour company, easy to communicate with, excellent transport and accommodation facilities. Food and activities provided were fantastic. Trina and Tony along with Rocco, made the tour very personalised for our group of 12 and went above and beyond to ensure we all had a great time. Curling was a highlight for us!!

Desley Williams

I highly recommend this tour. Our group of 12 had a fantastic time. Well done Off The Rails. Thank you.

David Hunter

Thoroughly enjoyed our 2 days on the trail with Tony and Trinasorting out everything from start to finish-flexible,friendly and professional service really took the edge off some dodgy weather! Cant recommend highly enough!

Anton McCloy

We had such an amazing time thank you so much Tony and Trina and Rock. We are all still talking about how fantastic you guys were. You made our ride very special.

Nancy Howarth

Wow! What an amazing tour group. Off The Rails, Trina, Tony and Rock. This was my first bike ride of this type, the group of friends I went with were awesome and so supportive, but the Off The Rails team really stepped up with friendship, knowledge and comfort. I will recommend you to anyone. Thankyou so much and hopefully I can get back to see you when we do the Alps to Ocean. Cheers OTR.

Ian Michie

Thank you so much Trina, Tony and Rock. You guys are amazing and took such good care of us. Loved every moment!

Willow Carroll

Thank you so much for everything. So well organised and everything taken care of. The Powerballs and Trinas cookies were great at the morning tea stops.
I got so used to be chauffeured around that I have forgotten how to drive!

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting a group of riders from Armidale NSW in Australia last week. At 1000m above sea level they were used to our temperatures, but we turned on a week of warm weather and even they found it hot. You guys were great and we're glad you enjoyed your trip.

We have had some awesome groups on the Rail Trail this season. While the weather hasn’t always been ideal for riding, we have managed to dodge the wettest and windiest days!
