What an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, the quad team went above and beyond — they were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. Communication was quick and clear, and they provided easy directions to the meeting point. The adventure itself was pure fun for the whole family — our kids had an absolute blast! The team customized the route perfectly for us, making sure everyone felt comfortable and engaged. We rode past beautiful orange, fig, and avocado trees, spotted animals along the way, and enjoyed the stunning scenery at every turn. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience — it was exciting, family-friendly, and full of laughter. We would 100% do it again! Thank you to the amazing team for making our day so special! 😉

This was a fun experience...

Jennifer_R, Sep 2025
This was a fun experience my husband and I did together. We were the only two on that day so we had a personalized experience. We rode through dirt roads and city streets, apparently we were always on the public streets. Anyway, great time definitely recommend.

Awful experience!!!

Aimee_M, Aug 2025
I had a awful quad biking experience. The information provided online is not accurate, Therefore customers are being mislead. They allowed me to make payments knowing that my children were underage and it was not accessible for them. Aditionally to that they refused to refund me my kids money. The worst part of it is that the tour operator brang her dark big and vicious dog on my kids and myself to frighten us which traumatised my kids. All this because I was trying to make my point of the wrong communication on the website. I was shocked with this unprofessional behaviour, This business clearly show that they do not care about their customers neither the business's reputation, it all about money.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We are sorry to read this review, but we must clarify that this description of the event is not accurate. All the information about the tour on TripAdvisor and on our own website is accurate and states clearly that a full unrestricted car drivers licence is required. It also states that children are welcome on tour, going on the back of the quad with a licenced adult driving the quad. No customer is being mis-lead if reading all the information given on the websites. You booked and paid for the tour through TripAdvisor, not directly with us, and TripAdvisor does not have the function to block payments due to the ages you fill out on the booking form. You arrived late to the starting point, and upon arrival it became clear that there was one adult and three children, none of whom held a valid driver’s license. As clearly stated in the tour description, a valid car driver’s license is required to operate a quad bike. Unfortunately, you had misunderstood and believed that drivers would be provided, which is not the case and is never advertised in our activity details. We spent time explaining the situation calmly and respectfully, but since we cannot allow anyone without a license to drive, and we do not provide drivers, it was not possible for your group to join the tour. We also explained our refund policy, which is standard in the industry, especially during peak season when spaces are reserved in advance. Regarding the dog mentioned: our office is located next to our private property where our very friendly family dog stays within a fenced garden. She never approached you and at no point was she used to intimidate anyone. We regret the misunderstanding and encourage all customers to carefully read the tour requirements before booking, as they are clearly outlined online. Children are welcome on the tour, but they must be accompanied by a licensed adult who can drive the quad while the child rides as a passenger. Our priority is always safety and transparency, and we strive to ensure every guest has a positive experience.

Great adventure !

Very scenic. Was nice riding over a variety of paths and roads and seeing everything from orange groves to villages. The stop by the organic farm was nice. The guides shared information about the local economy and farming. Would definitely recommend.

FaithKazadi_T, Feb 2024
We had such an unreal experience riding on the mountain tops and through valleys. The weather was wet but it added to the experience. The experience was filled with a good mixture of technical bits and leisure! The guide was also such a pleasure filled with stories and good humor? I would definitely do this experience again and would absolutely recommend!

Highly recommended!

First of all I want to thank Mark and Simone for their kindness and being great hosts. The tour was really great and so much fun. You drive through places you would probably never see. Doesnt matter if it is off road or on the normal street.
