ATV Tour, 2.5 Hours

ATV Tour, 2.5 Hours, 2.5 hours, rated 4.9 across 40 traveller reviews.

Overview

This is a guided ATV ride out of Berat that lasts 2.5 hours and covers mountain trails, countryside roads, olive groves and off-road sections that ordinary cars cannot reach. You start at the ATV QUAD BERAT base, receive safety equipment, then follow a guide along a loop that ends back where it began. Along the way there is a stop at Gjeroven for a break, photos and an optional visit.

The guide sets the tone of the ride. Reviewers describe him as friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the area, and several mention that he adapts the pace to each rider, stops for photos on request and points out things along the route. One traveller reported eating grapes and peaches from a private field during the ride, and another mentioned a drink stop at a campsite partway through, so the route has some variety beyond pure driving.

No prior ATV experience is needed, though the listing says riding experience is recommended and participants should be in good physical condition. It suits beginners and experienced riders alike, and travellers who had never driven an ATV before said the guide coached them well through rough terrain, riverbeds and dusty tracks. Bring a driver's license, since the listing lists it as required.

• Fitness and experience. ATV riding experience is not required but is recommended, and participants should be in good physical condition. Several first-time riders said the guide coached them through the off-road sections without problems.
• Pace is flexible. Multiple reviewers said the guide adjusts the ride to each group's comfort level, going faster or slower as wanted. He also stops for photos whenever riders ask.

• Getting to the start. Pickup is not included, so you make your own way to the meeting point. One reviewer had trouble finding the location and called the operator, who came out to guide them in, so it is worth saving the contact number from the booking page.
