Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What an amazing day to add to our Territory memories! This is a MUST for any adrenaline junkies or people that love escaping into the wild to places not easily reached.
"Bike You" were great from the start. Cath and Time got us kitted up with protective gear and appropriate bikes. The first half was exciting, learning how to navigate through some of the tracks they had scouted out for us (tailored to our abilities).
Tim is a gentleman and a scholar when it comes to motorcross. They gave me tips and strategies to tackle things I hadn't before (I admit I'm quite the motorcross beginner and was post night shifts!), very patient and encouraging!
The kick you get from challenging yourself and moving on the bike can't be underestimated. We saw dingos, roos, birds and incredible termite mounds with no other soul in sight.
My friends and I were treated to a tasty platter for lunch (with veggie and meat options) and ice ice cold drinks in the shade of Litchfield National Park before we set off for round two. Tiring but couldn't get enough bombing around and came away with some amazing videos and pictures. Tim filmed us too which was a bonus.
Probably one of the best tours I been on and something I won't forget in a hurry. Even if you're a tad nervous by the end you'll not want it to end. Definately booking on again before we leave the Territory!

Well the coaching is free, the laughs are free.
You will pay for admin costs, but you're going to walk away wanting to leave a donation to make sure they keep operating

I had the best day and all I had to do was turn up! Bike, clothing, boots, helmet and even food - all taken care of!
Tim and his crew were nothing short of professional, encouraging and so very passionate and that resonated in not only myself but throughout the entire group. This was my first time on a dirt bike / off road and there were lots of opportunities to try new skills and tricks and all completely at my own pace. I had so much fun and I look forward to attending another bike tour soon! Thanks Bike You, I loved it!

Just finished my second trip with Bike You, after a couple of training courses. Well organised, and Tim took time for assisting each person.
My daughter has done some training as well, and was more confident after she had, making me feel better about her being out riding on the streets.

The team at Bike You provided an awesome day out. They were incredibly professional with their skills, support and equipment and facilities. We had a great range of riding, which catered to the various skill levels of the participants. No one was left out nor was anyone pressured to keep up or ride beyond their abilities. The key aim for our groups ride was for everyone to have a great day, which we did. Please don’t assume that you have to be an experienced rider to enjoy one of these tours. I had not ridden a dirt bike for 10 years, and back then I was only a very social irregular rider, but Tim and the team matched me up with the right we equipment and skills to inspire confidence. The included Lunch, Snacks and drinks were also great. I have already recommended this to friends. Thank You!

Solid tracks, trove of knowledge on riding and bikes, even better hospitality. 'Bike you' really ticked all the boxes, only a couple of days ago but I already want to go out again, haha. From my limited experience and hesitant riding early in the day, Tim's tips and attention to my riding skill had me riding with an awful lot more confidence and control by the end. Big grin from ear to ear and completely hooked. Huge thanks Tim and Duncan, very few ways could top a day like that.

I booked a one day dirt bike tour and was blown away at how good it was.
Tim the owner/operator of Bikeyou is a down to earth bloke of the highest calibre; with a life time worth of knowledge and experience of all things two wheeled. Tim and his team delivered such an amazing day tour of some of the most incredible areas out of Darwin to ride.
I came to Darwin for a one week holiday and stumbled across a “Bikeyou” brochure at the local visitors centre; which I count myself lucky to do so! I had no gear with me at all but Bikeyou supplied everything bar socks and jocks.
This day had everything, I was happily picked up from my accomodation in Darwin, the days route had already been planned out and recce’d which featured tracks of all variations and terrains, the guides along for the ride were also very experienced and a wealth of knowledge, a group of like minded people in accompaniment, a stop at the local tavern for lunch and finishing off the day with a couple of beers at the Berry Springs Tavern after the days riding was done.
It doesn’t matter if your an amateur or a pro, all skill levels are accommodated and you will have a ball ! I definitely learnt a lot.
In summary I could not recommend Bikeyou enough !!

Thanks Trav, I don't think I could have written a better review myself!
It was seriously one of the best tours we ran last year, and we can't do that without the very coolest customers.
Come back soon!

hey guys I would like to thank you for awesome day (02/07/20) out on the track learning all new skills and building my confidence with riding.
the best part of the day was when we finished the laps and got really good feed back on our riding, telling what we did right and what we can approve on.
it was a really good experience for myself as new rider.
thanks you bike you and all the instructors.
