Perfekte Quad-Tour – Action, Natur & top Organisation! Unsere Quad-Tour mit Outback war einfach genial! Die Strecke führte uns durch wunderschöne Landschaften mit tollen Stopps – darunter ein erfrischender Fluss und ein kurzer Hike am Vulkan Arenal mit atemberaubender Aussicht. Die Tour war super organisiert, mit mehreren Guides, die jederzeit für Sicherheit und Spaß gesorgt haben. Absolut empfehlenswert für alle, die Abenteuer und Natur kombinieren möchten!

I had never ridden ATVs before and felt in very good hands. Our guide Mariano explained well how to operate them and adjusted his pace to the group's abilities. Besides, he made sure everyone got great pictures throughout the tour. The 2 hours went by so quickly that I decided to extend the tour to partially drive up the Arenal volcano - totally worth it!

Haben heute eine dreistündige Quad-Tour gemacht. Man fährt in Gruppen aus ca. 10 Quads mit jeweils zwei Guides. Landschaftlich sehr schön und es machte echt Spaß. Unbedingt im Vorhinein buchen! Preislich vollkommen ok.

It was an amazing experience. The guides and outback team were super helpful. I would say its not for people who dont know to ride bike. The team provided assistance since we couldnt do it on our own. It was really a super experience and one shouldnt miss it. They have a super talented photographer, who captured some good memories for us.. Harvin, Wilson and Andres helped us ! All worth the money !!

We did the three hour atv tour and it was great. We first went to the river where there was a small waterfall. Took some nice pictures. We saw a sloth and some tucana while on the tour. We went to a Maleku primitive village. Then we were off to the a ride through the jungle of the Arenal volcano. We saw lake Arenal on the way and then hiked to a beautiful view point of the volcano. The guides were friendly and helpful. We even got a discount when we booked the tour the morning of. I definitely recommend this if you are considering this type of outdoor adventure.

An awesome tour! The guide went way above and beyond to ensure our trip was great. He was the best photographer ever with our phones lol. And tried so hard to make sure we got to see some animals. And we saw toucans and sloths!

FAQS

What kind of experience is an Outback tour?

Outback tours are about exploring the Arenal Volcano area at the right pace with local experts. You ride through rainforest trails, rivers, volcano viewpoints, and the Maleku Village — guided, relaxed, and focused on what you see and feel, not how fast you go.

Are Outback tours safe?

Yes, safety always comes first! Every tour begins with a clear safety briefing and includes certified bilingual guides, helmets, and well-maintained vehicles. Your guide leads the way, sets the pace, and looks out for everyone throughout the tour. No racing, stunts, or risky driving. What we do guarantee is a fun, safe, and memorable experience.

Are ATV tours good for beginners or nervous riders?

Absolutely. These tours are ideal for first-timers. The trails are scenic and stable, not extreme. You practice before starting and can always ride at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Do I need experience or a driver's license?

No experience is needed. We teach you everything before the ride. Drivers need a valid driver's license from any country. Drivers must be 16+ with a valid license (where applicable). Passengers don't need one.

What's the minimum age to join the tours? Are the tours family friendly?
Outback tours are family-friendly and designed for all ages:
  • ATV: 5 years old as a passenger
  • Side by Side: 6 months old as a passenger
  • Jet Ski: 5 years old as a passenger

Outback Adventure Tours includes round-trip transportation from your hotel. If you prefer to drive, you can meet us directly at our office — we offer private parking, a great local restaurant nearby, and amazing views of the Arenal Volcano.
