Quad Biking · Chamouny
How to choose
Four options run out of La Vallée des Couleurs Nature Park in Chamouny, operated by Vallé Park and Vallé Advenature Park with prices ranging from 66 € to 131 €. The quad biking tours offer the highest intensity, starting with 24 min sprints for 66 € and moving up to 1.5h sessions for 85 € if you want more technical trail time. The buggy trip at 131 € for 1.5h provides a more stable but equally dusty experience for two people sharing a cockpit. If raw throttle time and solo handling are your priority, the 1.5h quad session wins on value. Book the buggy if you are riding with a partner and want a shared experience on the same red-earth trails of Mauritius.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need prior experience to ride a quad in Chamouny?
No experience needed. Most tours are listed as 'Everybody welcome', so first-timers can jump straight in. Guides from Vallé Park or Vallé Advenature Park brief you on controls before you leave the park.
What's the most intense part of a quad biking session at La Vallée des Couleurs?
The red volcanic terrain around La Vallée des Couleurs features steep tracks and loose earth sections that demand real throttle control. Those moments, combined with the weight of the machine through tight turns, deliver the sharpest adrenaline spike of the ride.
Quad or buggy: which gives a bigger rush?
The quad puts you fully in charge of a single machine, so every bump and acceleration hits directly through your body. The buggy is wider and more stable, which lowers the intensity slightly but adds a teamwork dimension if you ride with someone.
How long does the quad biking session actually last?
Sessions range from quick 24 min blasts to full 1.5h explorations. Factor in a briefing period on top of that when planning your day at Chamouny.
Are the tours conducted in English?
Yes. Tours from Vallé Park are available in French and English, so guides adapt to your preference on the day.

Practical info
Equipment
Both tours welcome all levels and run on dusty volcanic terrain, so closed-toe shoes and clothes you don't mind getting red-earth stains on are non-negotiable. Sessions last up to 1.5h in the Mauritius sun, so sunscreen and a light layer for wind are worth packing.
Getting there
Both tours depart from La Vallée des Couleurs Nature Park, road B102, Chamouny, Mauritius, roughly 40 minutes from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport via the B9 and B102.
