The Experience

This is the harder version of the ATV course—a step up from the beginner route in both distance and terrain difficulty. You'll spend roughly two hours on the trail itself, negotiating the kind of off-road segments that separate riders who can adapt from riders who follow a single line. The course climbs high into the hills with steeper gradients, and the ground beneath you shifts between deep ruts, loose rock and uneven surfaces that all need to be read and managed as you go. A professional guide leads the way and sets the pace; the group breaks for water and photos partway through.

The day starts with hotel pickup between 9–9:30am (morning trip) or 1:30–2pm (afternoon trip). Once you arrive at the base, you'll spend ten minutes getting kitted up—MX shirt, helmet, gloves and goggles provided—and another ten on a safety briefing. Then comes ten minutes of riding tuition at the practice track on the banana plantation, so you can get a feel for the machine before the course proper begins. After the ride, there's forty minutes for soft drinks, fresh fruit, and a choice of chicken, vegetarian or beef burgers with fries and salad.

You can ride solo on an ATV, or choose from several options that pair an ATV rider with a passenger, a buggy rider, or a four-seater buggy. The minimum age is 15, and children must be accompanied by an adult. Hotel drop-off happens around 1:30–2pm (morning trip) or 6–6:30pm (afternoon trip).

Is this one for you?Book this if you've ridden off-road before and want terrain that makes you work—the steep climbs, deep ruts and loose rock are what separate this course from beginner routes, and they're why the guide and the machine both take more wear. If you're new to ATVing, the beginner course is the better entry point.

Top questions

What's the difference between the Experienced ATV course and the beginner one?

The Experienced course covers 34km of much more technical terrain—deeper ruts, bigger rocks and steeper hillside climbs—and takes roughly two hours to complete. The beginner route is shorter and built for riders new to off-road riding. The Experienced course demands more skill to negotiate the varied ground.

How long does the whole activity take from pickup to drop-off?

The full experience runs about three hours. Hotel pickup takes roughly thirty minutes, then you have ten minutes for safety gear and briefing, ten minutes of practice riding, two hours on the actual course with breaks included, and forty minutes for lunch and refreshments afterward. Drop-off follows.

What protective gear do I get, and is it included?

An MX shirt, helmet, gloves and goggles are all provided and included in the price. You wear them throughout the ride and the practice session.

Can I ride as a passenger instead of operating the ATV myself?

Yes. You can choose an option pairing an ATV rider with a passenger, ride as a passenger in a buggy, or book the four-seater buggy. The available options let you pick the setup that suits your comfort level.

What's included in the lunch after the ride?

Lunch includes soft drinks, fresh fruit platters, and your choice of chicken, vegetarian or beef burgers served with french fries and mixed side salad.
