An unforgettable experience

5.00This was an amazing and unforgettable experience. Our guide reassured us and taught us how to use the quads quickly and easily though it was our first time. The actual journey itself was breathtaking. We first went to the cave of St. John the Hernit and learned a ton of history from the region. Journeying along the roads were not busy and allowed us freedom to ride. The sights were beautiful and our guide gave context to everything we saw. The beach at the sanctuary of Diktina was amazing and a wonderful stop to refresh. The way back to Kolymvari was so beautiful m. It reminded me of Highway 1 in California except more beautiful and on quads. We really got to go fast which was fun. This was an amazing experience. Don’t forget a coat if you get chilly and sunscreen!!
Brilliant quad biking tour

5.00I did this tour with my partner and we shared one quad bike between us. There was plenty of opportunity to swap the rider. The groups are very small 3-4 quads in total so it is very intimate. The tour itself was amazing, it is the perfect way to see the true beauty of Crete! We stopped at a hidden beach for swim that is only accessible via a dirt track. The instructor lets you go at your as fast or as slow as you want and we would do it again 100%!
Unforgettable experience!

5.00I had an amazing experience with this company. As a person who had never driven a quad before I highly recommend. Kostas, our guide was very friendly, professional and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The pace of our trip was adjusted to our group. Views were breathtaking. Everything was explained clearly and the equipment was in very good condition. Kostas provided us with cold refreshments.

5.00Really great tour! We were a small group (4 people, 3 quads plus our guide Kostas). We chose the day tour (from Kolymbari to the hidden beach). The quads were very good, the guide excellent and very friendly, the trip a nice combination of small roads and dirt roads going up and down the peninsula and national park, with interesting stops and a quick swim in the hidden beach. Kostas was quite knowledgeable on the sites and history we met, thought of everything (masks for the dirt roads, water and even a very welcome surprise at the end of the trip..) My husband and I absolutely recommend this trip!! Thank you Kostas!!!
Amazing!

5.00This experience was amazing and true off roading! Our guide let us set the pace for how fast everyone wanted to go and moved people around so that the faster people were at the front and others that wanted to go slower could go behind. It was a very hot day so the guide bought us cold waters and an ice cream which was just above and beyond! Highly recommend this tour!
Amazing
