Stunning Views, Fun Off-Road Adventure - 10/10 would recommend. The views of Crete are amazing, and the crew is very professional and well-prepared. The route includes some off-road sections, which can be a bit challenging, and you might get a little dusty, but that's all part of the fun!

Great day!! - We did this half-day quad tour on 08-08-2024 and it was fantastic to do, the route was also well divided so that you drive over asphalt but also for a large part on dirt roads with lots of bumps and dust and also a small part through the water goes to beautiful viewpoints:)
The quads had a lot of power and went quite fast (70km/h on straight asphalt roads XD)
If you are on a quad bike with his 2nd, the quad has little trouble going up the hill.
P.s I do recommend wearing sports clothes or old clothes with shoes as you will get very dusty. And bring a bandana/mask for all the dust, and sunglasses were a must for me.
Overall great🤩

Fun way to see amazing scenery - This is a great way to see a wide variety of amazing scenery. It's not educational, but if you like speed and a break from museums and hiking, this is for you.

great for families. very fun - the views were incredible. driving the quad was very fun. the staff were friendly and helpful. the only issues were that we did not know we had to be 45 minutes early (only got 1 text to say that 6 weeks prior to the activity), and some spots on the trip seemed a bit dangerous (no protective barriers near cliffs)

be careful about the route. - Tour was nice but an accident in the Mountains shocked us strongly. One Quad was falling down the Mountains and the Driver and his Son were nearly become to die. Maybe the Tourguides need to change the route into a safer way. This was very unexpected and for sure a bad experience.
