The “Utu iti” Tours

A motorcycle parked on a winding mountain road with rocky terrain, green hills, and snow-capped mountains in the background under a partly cloudy blue sky.

For our Low Cost ”Utu iti” Tours we ride the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 – and for good reason. With a cult following around the world, Royal Enfield builds bikes that are simple, reliable, and incredibly fun. The Himalayan 450 might just be the best all-rounder out there: smooth on sealed roads, confident on gravel, and comfortable all day long. Its ergonomic design makes it perfect for long-distance adventure riding.

Guided Tours include 3 or 4 star Hotels and may include Pubs, Inns or B & B’s - All Breakfasts & some Dinners are included - 1 or 2 Guides depending on group size - Suggested tour excursions and Local knowledge - Bike checks, assistance and Fuel - Guides are first aid trained with mechanical knowledge.

Self Guided Tours include the same accommodation as above and suggested Route downloads.

We’re proud to be New Zealand’s only tour company exclusively using the Himalayan 450 on these tours - recognised by Royal Enfield for commitment to the ride and the rider.
