“The way I would summarise this activity would be "amazing". I joined the group on our last full day in Crete on Saturday (28/09/24). On arrival they checked the driver in by showing the drivers license. As a driver you'll get a red braclet around your wrist to distinguish those from who were allowed to drive and those who were not. Before we hopped on the quad bikes, a brief instruction was given.

Review of Crete’s 5-hour ATV safari from Hersonissos, with mountain trails, villages, lunch, raki, views, and practical booking advice.

“Honestly, if you're thinking about booking this tour.. do it, you won't regret it! it was absolutely magical and Andreas really is the best guide. For those who like active adventures you will be pleased and challenged. Those who like to sit back and enjoy the stunning views, you'll have the best pictures and videos.

5.Eleftherna E-Bike and MTB Tour – Experience The Authentic Crete

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 69 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $91

Ride Crete’s quiet trails by e-bike through forests, riverbanks, herbs, and ancient paths on a small-group tour from Panormos.

“This was an ebike tour on mostly paved road through some beautiful countryside. Our guide chose an easier route for us, due to our lack of knowledge regarding the operation of the bikes. The ride could have been more of the challenging mountain bike experience if we had not needed to learn how to use the bikes first. Manos was very kind and patient with our group. The bikes and equipment were in good shape. It was a very fun day with a stop for a beverage at a local taverna.”
