Quad Biking · Kefalonia
How to choose
Both tours are run by Unexplored Kefalonia and are open to all levels, no prior quad experience required. The 100 € Old Skala tour runs 3h and keeps you close to the Skala coastline, ideal if you want a solid off-road session without committing to a long haul. The 140 € Skala-to-Poros route extends to 3h–4h and pushes deeper into Kefalonia's interior, covering more varied terrain between two distinct coastal towns. The 40 € price gap directly reflects the extra distance and time on the trail. Pick the shorter route for a first taste of the island's backcountry tracks. Go for the Poros option if you want maximum ground covered and a longer adrenaline window.

Practical info
Equipment
Wear closed-toe shoes and long trousers to protect against dust and terrain debris. Both tours run 3h or more, so bring sunscreen, sunglasses and a water bottle since Kefalonia's summer heat hits hard on exposed trails.
Getting there
