This was the best activity we chose to do for our family in the past 10 days. The bad weather did not eliminate the fun we had. The beach, the route through mountains and valleys, the food at a village cafe, and the hospitality of Costas were all amazing. I highly recommend this experience of Cyprus through this activity. It’s going to be the center of our memories of our vacation. We also visited his bar TT bar in the village of Yeroskipou , which is only 10 minutes away from the harbor in the evening and he treated us like his old friends.

Thank you again for your kind recommendation. We hope to welcome you and your family back to Cyprus someday for another adventure! Best Wishes, TT Motorcycle Rentals Team
Always do a buggy or quad safari each year, done the themed excursions but just wanted to try a different route. Well this is different more off road, less commercial and seeing the rural sights of the neighbouring area of Paphos. Throughly enjoyed are excursion and diffidently be doing it again.
Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Costas and his team were friendly and so knowledgeable. They explained everything to us in detail so we knew exactly how the buggy worked. The tour itself was stunning from beaches to mountain villages just a thrilling and amazing day out.
It was a shame our original tour was cancelled at short notice but this tour was offered and it was excellent and great fun. The team were so helpful and made sure we were safe whilst still making it exciting and fun. We had regular stops and our guide was knowledgeable and passionate about the country and villages Highly recommended
We booked the tour in advance, and the weather was fine. Since we were the only guests, we could fully enjoy the ride. Costas was very attentive and led us on varied routes through beautiful landscapes. Nice was the stop at a traditional restaurant where we could taste delicious sandwiches and incredibly fresh oranges – even if the prices were a bit high. Overall, it was a great experience that we can definitely recommend!
This trip was an incredible way to explore the depths of Paphos and immerse ourselves in Cypriot culture. From experiencing local agriculture to visiting stunning beaches and breathtaking mountain landscapes, it offered a well-rounded adventure. The off-road portion was a definite highlight, delivering a perfect dose of adrenaline. The only downside was the weather—since we visited during the off-season, we expected cooler temperatures, but the heavy rain during the tour was an unexpected surprise. However, rather than spoiling the experience, it added an extra layer of adventure. A word of advice: wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. The off-road trails, especially after rain, mean a high chance of splashing through muddy puddles. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, taking us to the best spots and ensuring a safe yet thrilling experience. If you’re looking to venture beyond the cities and experience the excitement of 4x4 buggies on rugged terrain, this tour is a must!
Excellently organized trip.The route is varied, not boring: a lot of wet offroad. Beautiful views over the mountains, by the sea.
