All drivers will receive a short safety and operational briefing before departing. Drivers must be 21 years of age or older and must present an original valid driving licence (provisional licences, expired licences, copies, or photos will not be accepted). Passengers must be over sixty (60) cm in height.

At the end of our quad bike tour, if weather and sea conditions are suitable, you will board one of our private boats. The boat will take you on a mini cruise around the island of Comino, passing by the amazing Blue Lagoon, known for its stunning crystal-clear cyan waters; the gorgeous Crystal Lagoon, one of the most picturesque and sheltered lagoons found in the entire archipelago; and the captivating Comino Sea Caves. During the summer season (weather permitting), you may also enjoy a swim stop of approximately 30 minutes in one of these beautiful lagoons.

To make the most of your outdoor adventure time and avoid the typical dreary indoor lunch experience, we will provide you with a packed lunch to enjoy outdoors, allowing you to fuel up, relax, and recharge.
