The experience

What makes this different from a standard island tour is that you're operating the ATV yourself, not watching from a seat. The guide leads you on dirt trails that cut through the island's interior (past coconut groves, rubber tree plantations and fruit farms), and stops at hidden waterfalls where you can rest and grab a drink. The route is built for riders new to ATVing. The guide supports you the whole way, so experience doesn't matter.

The trails pass through working farmland, which is where the monkeys come in. You might catch them picking coconuts for local farmers during the day, a sight most island visitors miss. Water buffalo graze in the fields alongside the route. Tour times run at 10:00, 12:00 and 14:00, and you pick either a 1-hour or 2-hour ride when you book. Hotel transfer from City Center Hotel is included both ways.

What’s included

• Round-trip hotel transfer from City Center Hotel.
