Beautiful quad safari

Good organization, transfer was on time, safety rules were well explained and enforced, nice environment. Only downside was that there was still a lot needed on the spot (coal scarf, special glasses, shoes) that was not informed about in advance. It could of course all be purchased there, but it would have been easier if this was communicated when booking.

Good quad tour for families.

We were picked up from the hotel on time, and the drive to the camp took 45 minutes. The tour itself lasted an hour and a half, including a 15-minute break. The camp was well-equipped with showers, restrooms, and paid snacks and drinks. Helmets were free, but all other additional equipment such as gloves and bandanas was chargeable. It is important to know that about 50% of the route could only be traveled at walking speed, as the guides paid close attention to this. If you drove too fast, there was a warning, and in the worst case, you had to return to the camp. The photos taken during the tour were chargeable, costing 30 euros per quad. We were told that they could only provide about 30 to 40% of the fun to minimize the risk of accidents. After the hour and a half tour, we had to wait another half hour for our bus that took us back to the hotel. During this time, we could still buy drinks and snacks, and the price of the photos was mentioned again. Overall, it was a well-organized trip that we would definitely recommend if the focus is not on speed.

Such a beautiful blast!! 💥

The experience was absolutely ace!! I booked it as a birthday present for my brother and we loooved it! The track is out in the mountains and the views are phenomenal! The staff were great, super vigilant - and for the price, there’s just no reason for you to not give this a go! We hired the individual buggies and we didn’t regret it! We had about a hour and half of driving, one pitstop somewhere in the middle of that, and our only wish was maybe we could have rode for longer - but that’s just because it was so much fuuun! Thank you for a great time 🥰🙏🏽✨

Operator response

The mountain views, off-road tracks, and adrenaline make it a really special adventure, and it means a lot to know you enjoyed every moment of it! We’ll also pass your kind words on to our team — they’ll be very happy to hear it. Hopefully next time we can make the ride even longer for you 😄 Thank you again for choosing us for such a special birthday gift and we hope to see you again on another adventure! 🥰🙏🏽✨

Cool buggy tour!

Nice experience! You see a beautiful part of the interior of Turkey. The organizers are very nice and everything is well arranged. We drove a buggy, tip: bring extra clothes because you get muddy.

Operator response

Hartelijk dank voor uw mooie review! We zijn erg blij dat u een fijne tijd heeft gehad 😊 Inderdaad kan de buggytour behoorlijk modderig worden, maar dat hoort bij het plezier 😄 We hopen u in de toekomst opnieuw te mogen verwelkomen!

Bad quad tour

2 stars is awarded only for the track that was good. Everything else was a disaster. Defective quads , Loose tires, different tire sizes mounted, worn tires. The photographer almost forced us to buy his glasses, said , we can leave it even if our sight is not worth it. You only drive 5-10 kmh which is quite boring. In the end he told us that he had already looked at us that we were stingy because we did not want to buy his photos, which were also overpriced. I would not book or recommend this tour again.

Banging day

So I booked two buggy’s as the wife drives slower than me 😀 When we arrived they try and sell you the earth, so make sure you have shoes you don’t mind getting muddy and very wet, if you have a snood take it. I said I wasn’t going to write a review after they tried to fleece us for snoods, camera cases, beach shoes, I said I wanted €50 for a review lol. However it was such fun I just can’t not review and tempted to do it again, before we leave, but my trainers have just dried. You have to drive around a field 3 or 4 times to show you can manage the buggy, 16 + to drive I think he said, I was ok with that bit. Then off we went, only down side is it’s trail ride, and quads go before buggy’s, they have to go through the water slower so it does slow the day a little. Guides were brilliant up and down checking people were ok and the camera man was bonkas and well worth getting the photos which was only €40, but we have over 100 pics of us and some videos. All in all a great few hours that I will do again, good suspension on buggy’s which was good for my old back, even the wife smiles after the first bit of mud and she realised oh well I’m getting Wet 😀 We booked via Viator app, was an easy booking fair price and will use again and again.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your detailed and fun review! 😊 We’re really happy to hear that you both had such a great time — especially after getting used to the mud and water 😄 It’s all part of the adventure! We also appreciate your honest feedback about the extras. We always want our guests to feel comfortable, and your note is very helpful. It’s great to know you enjoyed the buggy ride, our team, and the photos — we’ll be sure to pass your kind words to the guides and our “crazy” cameraman 😄 We’d love to see you again before you leave… maybe this time with already dry shoes!

Great quad safari ✌🏻

We participated in the Quad Safari in Side and had a lot of fun! The transfer from the hotel was punctual and well organized, so everything started relaxed. The quads were in good condition and the track was exciting but still safe. After a short briefing we were able to start directly. Especially the drive through nature, over dusty paths and small hills, has made the whole thing a real adventure. The guides were friendly and professional and always paid attention to safety. Overall, an action-packed excursion that we are happy to recommend.
