Lovely scenic trip, plenty of suitable stops, the owner picked us up from our hotel for a third of the price off rip off taxi prices in corfu at the moment
The quad bike experience was enjoyable as a drive through the Corfu countryside, but it didn’t live up to how it was described. The guides led us through a few villages and up into the mountains to a taverna for lunch. The restaurant itself was in a pleasant setting, but the lunch was small and fairly average. After lunch, we followed exactly the same route back, stopping briefly for an ice cream before returning to the starting point. The tour description was quite misleading. It mentioned visiting a serene beach, a monastery, and a vineyard. In reality, we simply drove in a loop around the beach, catching only a couple of seconds’ glimpse of it. There was no monastery stop at all, and the vineyard was only something we drove past without any explanation or visit. There was very little commentary throughout the day, and none of the local history, culture or points of interest were explained. Overall, it felt more like a long quad bike ride up the mountain and back than a guided sightseeing tour. The Pink Palace Hotel, where the tour is based, was an interesting place. Apart from a bottle of water provided with lunch, no drinking water was offered during the day, so make sure you bring plenty with you. Lunch is served at large shared tables with the whole group, which I personally found a little awkward. One thing to be aware of is that the group size is around 20 people, and the pace is dictated by the slowest rider. While that’s understandable from a safety perspective, it can make the experience feel quite slow at times. Overall, if you’re looking for a scenic quad bike ride, you’ll probably enjoy it. However, if you’re expecting a cultural tour with visits to the attractions advertised, you may come away disappointed.
The ride was slow. Felt it was boring compared to other atv rides I’ve been on. The first hour is going downhill and it was really slow. I did more braking than accelerating. It goes to a taverna where food is provided. Then goes downhill again really slowly to the beach. The last hour is going back to pink palace. Although it was uphill, I thought it was still slow and boring. Overall, the guides and food was good but the atv ride itself is not worth the money and time.
This tour exceeded our expectations. Chrissy contacted us, via WhatsApp, a couple of days prior to the trip to offer a shuttle from the Old Town (€20pp). The shuttle arrived on time and dropped us back again that afternoon. The tour itself was extremely well run - we were on a double quad and felt very well taken care of with 3 guides. Lunch was simple but enjoyable (local cafe), the 1 hour stop at the beach was gorgeous, and a short ice cream stop on the way back was a pleasant surprise. There were 21 people on our tour - mix of couples, families, friends etc.
Dear Amy, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that the tour exceeded your expectations and that you had such an enjoyable experience with us. It's great to know that the shuttle service was convenient and that everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to Chrissy and the rest of the team. Our guides work hard to ensure that all guests feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after throughout the tour, so we're pleased that this stood out during your experience. We're also glad you enjoyed the lunch, the beach stop, and the surprise ice cream break on the way back. Corfu has so many beautiful places to discover, and it's wonderful to hear that you were able to relax and take in the scenery while sharing the adventure with such a great group. Thank you again for choosing us and for taking the time to share your experience with future travellers. We hope to welcome you back to Corfu for another memorable adventure in the near future! A Big Thank you from all of us Have safe travels Magdalena, Jimmy and George
We had to take a cab from our cruise ship to the Pink Palace to start the ATV tour. The pink palace is a hotel/bar that looks like fun. (The cab ride turned out to cost 2x ($100) what I thought I was quoted-try to get the ATV tour people to come get you/ drop off). The ATV ride was fun. They had a guide in front and back of our group of about 12. You can ride single or get a two seater. My wife and I rode singles and glad we did. Drove up the mountain side a ways, stopped in a cute town for a good lunch of gyros and fries, rode down the Mediterranean Sea shore and stopped for a few minutes, then back up the hill to the Pink Palace again. Booking through Viator saved us a couple hundred dollars even with the cab fare, compared to the cruise ship price. One person in our groups ATV list steering and she had to jump off of it just as it went over a cliff. She said that the guide said it had happened before a couple times last year. So there’s that. But all in all it was a great experience

This is a long trek up winding roads to get to the payoff, which was the views and the lunch. Our guides were pleasant enough, but don't expect to be given any history or information on the island of Corfu. The ATV's are not heavy-duty and several kept dying, including mine. I had to keep my hand on the gas, even when going downhill and while riding the brake so that it didn't die. The fumes from the ATV in front of you were enough to choke a horse. The lunch at a local cafe was awesome. Wish we would have spent our time in Corfu doing something else.
Dear Yvette, Thank you for joining our tour, and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the spectacular views and the lunch experience, as these are highlights we are proud to offer our guests. we are very sorry that the ATV portion of the tour did not meet your expectations.

This tour was well worth it! We really wanted to see how the locals lived and experience the quaint towns of the non tourist parts of the island. Not only did this tour deliver on that but we also got to see some spectacular views. The tour guides were nice and its was an overall great trip!
