Full Description
The Dalmatian hinterland
Just behind the coast of Split lies the Dalmatian hinterland, a landscape of limestone hills, dry stone walls, vineyards, small villages and river valleys that most visitors never see. Riding a quad through this countryside gives you a very different view of Croatia from the beaches and islands.
The trails climb through open fields, cross rocky tracks and drop into shaded valleys, with mountain views in every direction. Many travellers search for a quad tour near Split because it combines speed and scenery in a few hours. Expect dust, bumps and plenty of fun.
Riding your own 600cc quad
Each rider has their own 600cc quad bike, which is powerful and responsive on rough ground. A valid driving licence is required. Guides give a safety briefing, explain the controls and lead the group along the route, stopping to regroup and take photos.
You wear a helmet and off-road gloves, which are provided, and you receive rain gear on rainy days. Wear closed shoes and clothes that can get dirty. If you are unsure whether the tour suits your level, contact us before booking, because the ride is more demanding than a sightseeing trip.
River swim stop and picnic
On summer tours the ride includes a stop at a river, where you can cool off with a swim after the dusty trails. Bring swimwear and a towel if you want to swim. On other dates the route may include a different rest stop, depending on the season and water levels.
During the stop you enjoy a picnic snack and a bottle of water, both included. The pause is a good time to relax, share photos with your group and ask the guides about the area. Extra drinks are not included.
