Took the family for this rafting and quad biking tour and we absolutely loved it! The guides were super friendly, and the kids had a blast racing through muddy trails. The entire experience is very beginner-friendly, so don't worry if you're a first timer. Would definitely recommend this as a top family adventure. And don’t forget to bring a change of clothes for after the mud biking!

OMG, this was SO much fun!!! 🛶🚜 We did the Rafting and Quad Biking Tour from Side and it was perfect for my family! Everyone in our group had a blast, even my 8-year-old nephew who was a little nervous at first. The rafting was safe but still gave us all the heart-pumping excitement and our guide was super friendly. Such beautiful scenery too. The stop for lunch by the river was a nice touch. Can't recommend it enough for a family adventure!

Alright, this was an awesome family adventure! Rafting on the river had just the right amount of thrill and the quad biking got us covered in mud (in a good way!). The tour guides were friendly and made sure everything was smooth. Definitely a must-do if you're around Side!

Just did this with my family and it was a highlight of our trip! The kids had the best time whizzing around on the quads and splashing in the rapids. Felt very well organized and safe. Don't forget sunscreen - you'll need it!

We took the kids for a day of adventure, and they haven't stopped talking about it since! The rafting is so well run, even the smallest in our group felt safe and excited. A great mix of thrills with beautiful views. And quad biking was the cherry on top - seriously worth it!

Wow, this day just flew by! The rafting was exhilarating and got everyone's adrenaline pumping, and the quad biking on those muddy trails was seriously fun! Perfect for us and the kids loved every second too. Make sure to bring a change of clothes because you will get splashed and muddy! Highly recommend for family outings.

A day jam-packed with adrenaline and fun! Even as first timers, we found the rafting super manageable thanks to the friendly instructors. Quadding was a muddy blast - ensure those sneakers are ready for a wash!
