Quad safari on Crete: Scootopia Crete, buggy safari Crete: We depart at 09.00 hours straight after breakfast. We visit today central Crete with some quads or buggy’s. Almost the entire day we drive off-road. Around 10.30-11.00 hours it is time for a coffee break in an old Greek kafenion (Greek coffee house). After the break we continue to explore Crete off-road. This day you can expect a lot of nature, culture and adventure.
We pass many beautiful little villages up in the mountains. Around 13.00 hours we eat lunch in the lovely village Kastraki. After lunch we continue our route through the mountains and somewhere around 17.00 hours we are back at our accommodation. Now it is time for a refreshing drink and a dip into the swimming pool. The best thing after a long day driving the quad is to relax, eat and drink something and rinse off the dust.






Discover Crete with a quad
Quad safari on Crete Greece: With our quad safari we guarantee you have a great time; enjoy Crete in a different way. You drive the quad both off-road and asphalt. We have created 8 different tours, so you have many chances to learn to ride a quad. It is no race, but really a great tour. You come in places you would never find on your own.
With the quad safari you have to drive calm and controlled. Safety is very important to us. The second person on the quad will be more comfortable sitting on a large towel. In between yourselves you can switch if more persons want to ride the quad. To be together on the quad and to switch with riding is a lot more fun, since riding a quad can be quiet exhausting. Have fun with our Quad Safari on Crete!






Quad safari on Crete – What to expect from the quad tour
What to expect with a quad safari: Maximum 2 persons can be on a quad. You are more comfortable to be alone on the quad, but then you cannot switch with riding. We take care you get your lunch in the day. Our quad safaris are always with a small group of people: a nice way to go into the mountains and see Crete from a different point of view. Every winter we create new tours, so even our regular guests from Zorbas Island have the chance to see something new. The most important from the quad safari on Crete is to discover the real create with its beautiful nature, mountains and little villages. We will make a DVD from our adventures during the quad safari.
At the moment we have 8 different quad tours on Crete. Every summer we start with a new tour through Crete that has all the ingredients we want: fun, adventure, culture and beautiful landscapes. Often it happens that our guests want to do a second quad safari during their holidays on Crete. This is never a problem, we just do another one. We have enough variation in our tours that we can surprise everyone with a different quad safari on Crete. Nobody should ever get bored on our beautiful island. We also organise Crete off-road in 7 days; for more information just contact us.
