A truly wonderful experience and adventure in the truest sense of the word! One should have a bit of experience with quad riding, as some sections of the track could be overwhelming for beginners! But overall, it was unbeatable in every way! Best regards, Evelyn and Michael
Vielen Dank. Wir freuen uns, dass Sie Teil unseres Abenteuers waren :)
From start to finish, everything was organized to perfection. The route through the Velebit Mountains was absolutely breathtaking – stunning views, wild untouched nature, and plenty of exciting moments. The guides were amazing – professional, friendly, and full of interesting facts about the places we visited. They made sure everyone was safe and comfortable while still keeping the adventure thrilling. Each stop was more impressive than the last – from panoramic viewpoints to the iconic filming spots of Winnetou, we were constantly surrounded by natural beauty. The buggies were powerful, clean, and so much fun to drive. The entire experience felt like a perfect mix of adrenaline, nature, and local culture. If you're anywhere near Zadar – don’t miss this! Worth every euro and more. I absolutely recommend it to anyone who loves nature, adventure, and exploring Croatia in a unique way. We’re already planning to return next year!
Feedback like this makes us happy and gives us the strength to continue doing what we love and to be able to show it to everyone who joins us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart !
Today we have had the greatest pleasure and drive at Atv through Paklenica National Park with Start Travel Starigrad. The view experience and the guides were all fantastic. We really saw something we never dreamed of, so the experience far exceeds expectations. The trip is definitely worth the money and it has been the coolest experience this summer. Thank you for everything and wish everyone should try this amazing experience. The biggest knuz and thanks from Jette and Mugge Denmark
It is a special pleasure to be a guide to cheerful and positive people. Thank you for being part of our team. 😍🐶
The Quad Adventure was really awesome. You saw a great mountain landscape and made several stops, for which it was always described in detail what the individual stories behind it are. Really exciting! Especially we would like to highlight the super nice guide Luca, he was really 1A. He took a lot of time for each of the adventure participants and always had everything under control. The tour, especially with this provider, can only be recommended, it is worth every penny!
It's really nice to hear feedback like this. We're glad you enjoyed it and learned something new :)
Very beautiful views and exciting trip ! We really enjoyed the quad tour. The staff were so helpful and kind ! The roads to the high mountain were challenging and worth the visit !
You showed great interest in the stories we told you, and at the same time you were excellent drivers. A team to be desired!
What should have been a great experience turned into a nightmare. One of our party had a crash and the driver and passenger ended up in hospital. Only ride a quad-bike if you're familiar and confident with them. These are 500 cc bikes and can be hard to control for a novice. There is no assessment of your ability as a rider so be aware. On top of that damage to the bike was charged to us – we were told 'there is no insurance because it is off-road'. Finally, many travel insurances don't cover quad-biking and class it as high risk activity.
I'm sorry, yes, sometimes in life things don't go as planned. It is up to us to be aware of our possibilities and use what we are capable of. You wrote well "Be aware of the risks" because this is an adventure... it's in the name of our service. This adventure is low-risk, designed as an easy ride on macadam and viewing the nature park through which we pass with a few breaks. This is proven by hundreds of people who were with us and rode a quad for the first time. The quads are new and suitable for beginners and the tours we do. And you wrote everything else well. Everywhere in the world, when you do damage, you are responsible for it, and you signed that before the start. I'm glad you wrote this because you must have helped someone. I'm very sorry madam, she didn't listen to the guide in time, she repeated that herself several times after she fell.
The guys were very nice and helpful, the quad bike to ride is very physical and definitely not for everyone. The places visited were really very beautiful and suggestive, landscapes not everyday. We enjoyed the bee farms, which you know, indispensable beings. The guides gave us lots of info related to what we were visiting. I recommend long dresses and closed shoes because you will breathe and fill yourself with so much dust.
Thanks for giving advice to everyone planning to come to us. We are glad you enjoyed it.
Signing up worked great, after a short quad briefing it started right away. Initially to get used to on an asphalt road and then we went up into the mountains. The routes were very varied, partly action, sometimes relaxation with a view. Some breaks were made at spots where taking pictures was very worthwhile. The Guids are very considerate. There was free cool water, which fit very well at the temperature of 38 degrees. The Guids' English skills were impeccable. The quads are in good condition. We would do this tour again and also highly recommend to others!
We are glad that you were a part of our small team and brought back beautiful memories with you.
We had booked the morning tour. It was very nice, had great viewpoints. Again and again short stops were made to keep the group together. All staff were very nice and helpful. Nature was very beautiful and it was a lot of fun. Thanks to the guide.
I am very satisfied with this experience, the quads are a lot of fun to drive, the guides are great with lots of interesting stories, and the scenery is unique. A great combination of adrenaline and a beautiful view. I recommend it to everyone.
