Frequently asked questions
What's the most intense moment of a quad biking tour here?
On the Atlantis Dunes route, hitting the steep sand faces at speed is the peak adrenaline point. The quad fights the loose terrain and you feel every shift in throttle. The full-day safari delivers sustained intensity across 10h of varied ground rather than one sharp spike.
Do I need prior quad biking experience?
No. Tours like the Quadzilla X Adventures session list 'Everybody welcome' as the physical level, meaning zero prior experience is required. Guides handle the safety briefing on-site before you ride.
What's the longest ride available from Cape Town?
The And Untamed Travel full-day safari clocks in at 10h, making it the longest quad biking option listed. That includes travel, breaks and riding time across the full day.
Is 1 hour enough to actually feel the rush?
Yes. The 60 min session from Ontours capetown at 22.72 € concentrates the action on the dunes, which means the adrenaline-to-time ratio is high. You're not spending time on tarmac transitions.
Are the tours conducted in languages other than English?
The Quadzilla X Adventures dunes tour runs in English only. The And Untamed Travel full-day safari is available in both English and Afrikaans.
