This trip offers a comprehensive exploration of Crete, showcasing traditional villages, historic churches, majestic mountains, deep gorges, and picturesque beaches. The journey begins at Lake Kournas, the island’s only freshwater lake, where visitors can admire the tranquil waters and surrounding scenery. Continuing through the countryside, the tour stops at the village of Argyroupoli, where a short walking tour guides you through different periods of Cretan history, ending with a relaxing coffee or juice in the village center.
As the drive continues toward Crete’s southern coast, the landscape transforms, revealing the first views of the Libyan Sea. A stop at the Kotsifou Gorge allows visitors to explore a charming stone church nestled in the dramatic scenery. The tour’s longest break occurs at Plakias Bay, offering time to relax on the beach, enjoy a meal, or stroll through the village. On the return journey to Rethymno, the route passes through the Kourtaliotis Gorge, where travelers can pause to take photographs of the wild and awe-inspiring landscape, completing a full day of Cretan exploration.

This tour was simply exceptional! 😍 A full-day road trip with a superb guide, Yiannis, who showed us Crete and its treasures. ☀️The quads are of very good quality, and we, who like tours with some thrills, were more than satisfied!

We really enjoyed the Eco Quad Tour, it was such a great experience! One of the highlights was the visit to the olive factory, where a fantastic host explained the whole process of how olive oil is made. We also had an amazing off- and on-road drive through beautiful landscapes, followed by a delicious local meal. Our guide Yiannis was wonderful, very attentive throughout the tour, always checking in to make sure we were comfortable and offering water, especially with the heat, it was 29°C. He was also great fun, shared lots of stories, and had answers to all of our questions. This tour truly exceeded our expectations. My whole family thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and we would highly recommend it :)

On Saturday, 14 June, we booked a day with this fantastic company. With the quad bike (which, to our great surprise, turned out to be electric), This allows you to continue to hear the nature around you during your ride. We explored the island of Crete under the expert guidance of Yiannis. He showed us beautiful places. He took us to lovely businesses. He arranged a delicious meal at a good restaurant. We saw the olive trees up close. Drove along ravines. Crossed mountains. Drove past coastal villages. Off-road, on-road, we saw it all. I wouldn't have wanted to miss these experiences. Thank you so much, dear people. You made our holiday unforgettable.

We had the best experience with this tour company! Everyone was really friendly and made the day so enjoyable! The instructions for driving the quads was clear and easy to follow, making the experience even more enjoyable. We saw so much of Crete and given the history of the olive oil factory the nature in the surrounding areas. Thank you for making our day extra special, highly recommend!

Unforgettable quad tour! I cannot recommend enough this amazing group of people that are doing the quad tours Do not miss out on these guys!! Been on a few quad tours before in my life but this is for sure the best experience I’ve ever had the kindness the vibe the 5 star service and treatment you receive is absolutely top tier!!! Not mentioning the tour itself Jimbo took us for about 8 hours of quad tour from goat's feeding to an incredible lunch in a town in the mountains to a beautiful wild beach with a supreme view and on and on and on this was definitely one of the best things me and my partner did in Crete and we’ve been to a lot of tours and places but this one is definitely something else! Seriously do yourself a favor and book with them you will be amazed!
