18 Oct 2023 | 1-hour quad tour to the Alcantara Gorges

A creat tour and overal experience

One day before the trip I booked (around 21:30) and me father and I couldn't make it by bus all the way to the meeting point. I sent a WhatsApp to the organization and almost immediately I got a message back. They could pick is up from the nearest bus station for free or pick is up at the hotel and bring is back. The price would be 50% of the local taxi prices. We went with the first option and when we were arrived at the busstation he would be there in 20/25 min. He gave us a few tips to do while we were waiting. When we finally arrived at the location we got the big ATV and it was amazing. It says on hour, but it felt and was more than 1,5 hour. Don't expect the prettiest sightseeing but riding the ATV itself was amazing and I would do it again!

half-day quad bike excursion to etna

A fantastic experience, when we arrived at the meeting point we were given the equipment and explained the use of the quads, then we set off with our guide Salvatore, a very good and professional guy, along the way he showed us some really evocative places, explaining their history and guided us by keeping an eye on them. Fantastic views and wonderful route. I recommend this experience to everyone, to be done at least once in a lifetime.

Not to be missed!!!

Guys a real blast!!! There were 4 of us with two quods and we had so much fun. All the staff were up to the task 🔝. The off piste is really off piste!!!!! Great alternating between piste and off-piste! You also pass through the town of Castiglione. In short, if you want to spend a day of adventure and in total safety, you can't miss this experience. Landscapes as unique as Sicily can offer.

Fantastic trip

This was an amazing tour which took us through so much beautiful scenery in a fun and exhilarating way. It was a small group (just one other quad) with plenty of off road elements (rivers, forests etc). Luca was so friendly and helpful; always ensuring we were safe and keeping up. He even recommended places to eat afterwards. Couldn’t have been happier with our trip - thank you so much
