Best 3 days on a bike The total experience was exceptional from the ever changing landscape and perfect weather but the key to this successful trip was Phil (owner) . His dedication and commitment to ensure all our needs were meet was just outstanding, He operates the business with the highest level of integrity and we will be back again, Job well done Phil.

Phil deserves more 5 star reviews. My wife and I just finished up a four day self guided motorbike trip around south/east Tassie and it was fantastic. Very well thought out routes with plenty of options along the way depending on how much you want to see and how long you want to spend on the bike every day. Thanks Phil, we'll be back soon to see more of Tassie.

Tassie day trip Me and my partner recently hired one of Phil's Triumph Tiger 800's for a day run up the east coast to Swansea and then back down through Campbelltown, Ross ,Oatlands etc. Thoroughly enjoyed it, Awesome roads Spectacular scenery. Highly recommend TMTR and Phil, very easy to deal with and very accommodating to our needs .Thanks again Phil.

Top notch service We completed a 9 day trip around Tasmania yesterday. The self guided tour is an excellent concept. We were 2 up on a bmw 750 / 850 gs with all the Vario luggage. The bike was ideal for Tasmania and ran faultlessly. Phil’s coordination and communication was top notch. We highly recommend Tasmania as a destination and Tmtr for a hassle free enjoyable adventure provider.

Great 5 days around Tassie John and I rented two Triumph Tiger 800s for 5 days/nights and did a circuit of the island - Hobart, Strahan, Boat Harbour, Coles Bay and back to Hobart. Everything ran smoothly, pick up and drop-off to and from the airport, bike readiness, and of course the bikes themselves. As a 1250GSA rider I wasn't quite sure what to expect of the 800, but I was very happy with its performance and suitability for the job at hand; no issues whatsoever. Phil provided the right degree of support and advice, and our overall experience was excellent - we would use him again.

Last week I rented out a GS Rallye standard suspension from Phil’s strong fleet of bikes for a week wind with a mate who was on the lower suspension version. I was recommended to Phil from another mate who had rented last year. It was a wonderful and stressfree experience from my initial contact to returning the bike. The bike was in very good condition and Phil gave guidance on routes and tips on what to look out for. Phil picked us up from the airport and dropped us back after returning the bikes. On the last day it was 27degC and we needed to freshen up before boarding our flight. Guess what, Phil had a shower with clean towels and toiletries to use. Overall I enjoyed chatting with Phil about riding and other things as well. Keep up the good work Phil. Will see you soon to explore more of Tassie

4 Tasmanian Virgins On Tour. 10-day 9-night self-guided tour of Tasmania for 4, on 2 Triumphs Tiger 800's. Brilliant! Phil runs a great business & took great care of us. The Tigers in my view are ideally suited to Tasmanian conditions. The weather was kind to us, the roads are excellent for motorcycling & so much more traffic free compared to Brisbane where I live, the food is excellent, particularly the seafood, the people are friendly & engaging & the public dunnies are generally clean & well maintained. Highlights: The Gorden Dam Road, Stanley & Marlies cafe, the Gordon River cruise & Sara Island & Port Arthur. Would I return? YES! Would I make use of Phil's business again? Yes! After all he is a Triumph man. Cheers Des G.

I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience using TMTR's services. The team here are very accommodating, even to work with you on the logistics of drop off and pick up, fortunately in my case I had local friends helping me out but had that not been the case Phil was willing to pick me up or organise bike pick up from the airport. The bike itself was a dream to ride and extremely well maintained. I will be using their services again and highly recommend using them to anyone reading!

Only Positives We've rented with TMTR previously and are yet to have something bad to write about, even the weather was perfect during our October 2023 5-day clockwise lap. TMTR have a large range of bikes, perfectly set up with luggage and a Garmin XT GPS. For this experience we settled for a BMW R1250GS Rally each, one low suspension for my low suspension wife and a normal one for me. The trip started well with Phil picking us up from our hotel, we could leave all our non-riding stuff at TMTR, and ended with Phil dropping us off at the airport. We've ridden a lot of the world and Tassie is up there as our favourite place; the riding and the scenery and the accommodation, food, and beverages are simply the best. TMTR allows us to get amongst it without shipping our bikes over, can't thank them enough.

Tasmania trip Excellent trip organization. Phil had Garmins pre-programmed, and had alternative routes just in case of adverse weather. Pre-ride pick-up and drop off afterwards made everything easy. Very happy to endorse TMTR

10 Day Self Guided Tour 7 of us from New Zealand hired 5 bikes from Phil for a 10 day self guided tour of Tasmania. From our first contact in August 2022 to determine when 5 suitable bikes would be available, until our drop off at our Hobart accommodation the whole process was easy and straight forward. Phil asked us some questions to determine our likes and dislikes and he ended up providing us with a really detailed printed itinerary offering plenty of dining and attractions advice along with important stuff like “fuel up here”. Alongside the printed itinerary was a daily map and each bike had a GPS unit preprogrammed with the attractions and our each nights stays. We left the accommodation up to Phil to book and they were all of a high standard, and close to, or incorporating a restaurant. Any questions or problems we had, Phil was only a phone call away to help us out. Tasmania has some of the best motorcycling roads I have ridden on and even the rain couldn’t reduce the smiles we all had. Can’t say enough about how much we all enjoyed riding in Tasmania. Thanks Phil for your work and enthusiasm for Tasmania, which helped make our trip remarkable. Geoff

The Ideal Bucket List Bike Ride. For me, this was a Bucket List trip.Phil picked us up from our hotel in Hobart and it was off to his place for the mandatory paperwork and also a review of his recommended route and how the GPS works. The GPS made it so easy.On the bikes for the start of 5 days on the road. Saw some amazing scenery, so many contrasts across the island.Two fine days, and three half wet/dry. As good as you would expect.I was having some trouble with the clutch lever adjustment but Phil had a contact in Launceston who sorted it out in a minute and I was happy again.Accommodation was between amazing and OK, depending what was available in that town.Had a great time, price was reasonable, would recommend it to anyone.

Solo Self guided tour I Hired a Beautiful BMW 1250 GSA from Phil I was flying Solo and had no real plans. Phil showed me some great places on his large wall map and also gave me a 5 day self guided tour map. I got instructions on how to operate all the great features on the bike. Like heated grips and seat 🙂 . I rode 1631km in 4 days. and saw so much. I visited chocolate factory's, winery's, cheese places, distillery's and anywhere else that I saw as i rode along that caught my eye. The bike was amazing to ride and Phil was super easy to deal with.

Tassie Motorcycle trip A large group of us from NSW flew down to Tassie and rented bikes from Phil at TMTR. Although I wasn’t the trip organiser I found the whole process seamless. Phil communicated with the organiser extremely well, picked us up from our accomodation, walked us through the rental process, fees and insurance details and of course the bikes themselves. All of the bikes we rented, 12 in total were all pretty new with low kms and were mechanically A1. He provided GPS which were accurate and well programmed. You literally pressed favourites and a list of interesting destinations came up making navigation around Tassie incredibly easy. The roads around Tassie are MADE for bikes, great straights, sweeping bends looking over majestic scenery, mountains , fields, forests and crystal clear bays and of course hairpin bends to keep it all interesting and test out your skills! The towns and attractions you pass through have something for everyone, great food, pubs, wineries, boutique food and arts and crafts. Along with the incredible history of Tasmania and stunning National parks and natural attractions you will love this place. Combine it with Motorbikes and mates and you will be hard pressed to have a better holiday.At the end of the ride we simply returned the bikes and once again Phil drove us back to our Hobart accomodation. All in all a cracker of a week!

Tasmania Self Guided Tour I rented a bike from Phil at TMTR in February. He organised an 8 day self-guided trip for me on a Tiger 800XCX, which was in very good condition. Great roads and scenery...and so little traffic. Phil provided me with sat nav, comprehensive route notes and suggestions for sightseeing, bars/restaurants etc I would definitely recommend renting from TMTR and riding in Tasmania.

Trip of a lifetime From A-Z this was a great trip. The only thing that wasn't under Phil's calm control was the weather. A couple of phone chats for him to get an idea of what to propose as an itinerary, easy transaction, and my bespoke tour was created. Phil's flexilbity with colletion/drop off at the airport removes one extra hassle, and leads to a really chill start of a fantastic motorcycle tour. The range of bikes is excellent, and they really are in top notch condition, as is the range of luggage and clothing available as well.The tour was great, lots of options, lots of suggestions, Phil obviously has a wealth of local knowledge and local connections, and was able to come up with altnernatives off the top of his head.I absolutely 100% recommend. I only did four days, and I wish I did four weeks. Tasmania is incredible, and when I come back (not if), I will be a repeat customer for sure.

Superb. Thrilling. And on mouthwatering bikes! There are a couple of motorcycle hire businesses in Tasmania, but I'd bet none are as brilliant as Phil Ogden's Tasmanian Motorcycle Tours & Rentals. From our initial communication, to when we booked then had to cancel our original Tassie trip due to COVID lockdowns, to when we re-booked and this time made it to the island, every interaction was highly professional, surpassing our expectations. Phil was accessible, informative, patient, and generous. The motorcycles on offer are the best I've ridden, likely the best you'll find anywhere, including the king of adventure bikes: BMW's 1250 GS Rallye - a monster you can hire and ride once you stop drooling. Phil offers motorcycle gear like helmets, jackets, wet weather gear and more. His service is hard to fault... and then there's the island itself. Honestly, hire one of TMTR's bikes, take Phil's advice on potential routes and accommodation, and enjoy some of the best roads on the planet on some of its best bikes. Just do it.

Booked a motorcycle through TMTR for use at a work event in Hobart in February 2023, where the motorcycle was utilised as a first response vehicle for the event paramedic. We explained to Phil the intended use and types of equipment that would need to be carried, and he provided us with a choice of several appropriate motorcycles for the event with a variety of luggage options. The booking process was easy and well explained, with Phil being easily contactable and happy to chat over the phone to answer any questions. Pickup and drop off was also easy. The owner is an avid rider himself, so is also happy to provide local information and tips for those that aren’t familiar with Tasmania. Overall a very easy booking process. I would happily recommend TMTR for both personal and business hire.
