Awesome adventure! My kids couldn't stop talking about the quad biking and rafting. Seriously, if you're in Side with family, do this! The guides made everyone feel safe and the scenery was just WOW. 😊

What a fun day! Perfect for my family. Rafting through the rapids was exhilarating and the quad biking was an absolute hit with everyone. Highly recommend bringing some water shoes, though, as it can get a bit slippery. The tour guides were always nearby if we needed anything. Worth every penny!

If you’re looking for an adventurous day out with family, this is it! We all had such a great time laughing and cheering each other on. Definitely wear old sneakers for the quad biking—they'll get muddy!

This tour was perfect for the kids and us parents alike. They loved the quad biking (and all the splashing through the mud!). The rafting was great for beginners, which was just right for my family. Decent lunch by the river too! Best part of our trip!

What a blast! My family and I had the most amazing time on this rafting and quad biking tour. The rapids were just thrilling enough to get the heart racing but nothing too intense for the kids. Plus, racing through those muddy trails on the quads was sheer fun! Pro tip: Wear clothes you don’t mind getting wet and muddy. Highly recommended for families!

Adventure palooza! If the combo of rafting and quads isn't the most fun you can have in Side, I don't know what is! Loved the scenery and the activities were well-paced, even for the kids.
