- Amily A0 contributionsBeautiful, funI highly recommend this tour and doing the three hour option so you can get a view of the Volcano! Our tour guide was amazing, make sure to be ready for a small hike if you do the 3 hour tour!Written January 12, 2025
- annefC4626IJ0 contributionsFun experienceThis was one of the highlights during our stay in Samara. First time riding an ATV and it was definitely worth it. We saw 3 beaches, Barrigona was my favorite. The water was clear with lots of beach to walk on. Our tour guide was able to point out howler monkeys up in the trees. He was friendly and knowledgeable. My boyfriend had a blast driving through all the mud. Just make sure to bring a change of clothes. Overall, I highly recommend this tour.Written January 9, 2025
- 255mandit0 contributionsIf you love adventure ...Andre was an amazing guide. Took us up the mountains, beautiful sights. Out to a watwr dall whwre we jumped off cliffs into the dresh river water the. Playa Barrigona and Buena Vista coasts, a fresh pineapple for snack and then all the muddy off roading we wanted, a beautiful, muddy tour!Written January 8, 2025
- jr_lothian0 contributionsGreat fun experienceGreat fun and experience had by all in our party, (we went with our two older kids 18 & 21) it had been raining constantly in the area so wondered whether we’d get super muddy but it didn’t cause any issues with the tour. Leader kept looking out for monkeys and sloths on the journey which we saw on two separate occasions. The visit to the indigenous peoples was brief and wish that had been a bit more in depth, but still did not detract from the overall experience. 5 stars!!Written January 8, 2025
- 375kimf0 contributionsGreat 3-Hour ATV tour!Had a great tour, despite pouring rain, off and on. A *real* off roading experience thru the forest and up to a view of Volcán Arenal. The guys were great to ride with; everyone was friendly, and our family of 7 definitely recommends them!Written January 7, 2025

- 973aniell0 contributionsATVs - Fun & Easy to useThe ATVs were fun and our guides provided clear instructions on how to use the ATVs. It was raining a lot during the excursion but we still had a blast going through Puddles of mud and small rivers.Written November 29, 2024
- FellowTraveler5364480 contributionsBest experience with diverse terrain, beautiful scenery and amazing staff that made the experience exceptional.The most adventurous activity of our trip! Spent nearly 3 hours guided through an assortment of terrain on our way up to the volcano. The light rain drizzle added to the experience and had multiple opportunities to stop and take pictures of the volcano, a waterfall fed river, and eachother on our individual ATV’s. Learning to operate them was fairly easy, and we felt safe being led by Frank, our guide, despite muddy single track trails bordering steep drop offs. Totally made our trip! Epic and worth every penny!Written November 26, 2024
- aries_nats780 contributionsSuperb experinceSuperb experience! Super kind and professional guides and service. Did a lost in 2 hours in best quality ATVs. Very happy with what we got for the price. 6 of us on 3 double ATVs had a blast. Thanks Vinnie and all team.Written November 25, 2024

This was my first time riding an ATV, and now I finally understand why people love motorcycles! (I need more than 2 wheels, so this was perfect for me💯) I thought understanding it would be difficult, but knowing how to drive manual already, this was a breeze to get! it did still take some learning to understand how to take the dips/speed bumps - as someone with an 18 year old back injury, I highly recommend taking them S L O W. I also highly recommend goggles and a scarf to cover your face... I was lucky to have a headscarf with me, but my sunglasses didn't really protect my eyes. still, i absolutely loved all my time, and hitting 60 on the ATV was a thrill and a half😅😂 the volcano was absolutely gorgeous... for some reason I thought we were going closer to the top, but I know now I never could have handled the time it would've taken to do that!😅😂 the views are spectacular, and I would do it again in a heart beat! this company was awesome to book with and I highly recommend them!

The guides are very friendly. We took the photo package, 100% recommended, since you cannot take photos while driving. We went to a river and I regret not having brought a swimsuit. In the end we entered the Volcano reserve and climbed up to some lava flows, we were super close to the Volcano. I took the drone, in Outback they helped me with a linga to carry it in the rack. Super recommended.

Woow we have done ATV tours in numerous countries and by far this has been the best. Our guide was great. The views were great, the ride to the river was awsome. Will definitely be recommending Outback Atv and will be doing the river rafting tomorrow do to the great experience today.

first of all they forgot to tell us that we need a driving Licence for the tour. When we claimed they told us we should claim where we booked the tour. The guy who picked us up was in a really bad mood. On the tour we drove with 16 people in a line with a maximum speed of 10 they brought us to a tent where they showed us souvenirs. We were surprised because we wanted to drive the quads! We asked if they could drive a little faster (and they said no we are driving to badly which wasn’t true anyway because with sich an amount of people it wasn’t possible) and if we don’t feel comfortable we can go back to the basis camp. Incredible how they treat their customers with a voice I never learned before on all my trips! At least they finished the tour and brought us back with many discussions all the time blaming us!!!! although 16 people witnessed that they finished the tour not we. But if they do so I suppose they have not to pay back our money. At least 2500 Euro for quad and rafting. They destroyed a day, the fun and filled it with discussion and anger. Hopefully get your guide will help for a refund.

Good morning.
Dear Customer.
I hope you have a great day.
Thank you for taking your time to write this review, this will help us explain to our future clients some important things and what to do or not to do on our Guided ATV Experience.
1. Driver's license, we request a driver's license from all drivers, this is a main request to carry out the tour, in double quadricycles it is not necessary for the companion. You have been informed of this request prior to booking.
If you read our last reviews we do no have any complaints about our tour guide service, they are very professional and he just did his job, asked for the license when we pick you up, the problem was you and the other 5 people forgot to bring the license. .
2. We have an exploration tour and your group tried to drive crazy and very badly, we understand that you have been on vacation, but we cannot accept any possibility of an accident, we do not want to transport you to the hospital or destroy quads, just because you want to go crazy and cause accidents for your family and friends.
3. We have quality and service standards to offer you the most fun and attractive, but SAFE, activity.
4. Many people in your group never listtenned the instructions and were very rude to the tour guides and very disrespectful.
All the discussions and blaming was from your side, our staff just did his job, we offered you the tour and the best service, your tour leader decided to stop the tour and destroyed your day, not our fault.
I know you will not understand but we happy the tour been cencelled, we avoid accidents and you came back safe.
P.D
Don't forget you scratched one ATV and you refused to pay damages.
My best regards.
Alonso Gazo.
Manager.

If you are looking to enjoy the spectacular landscape of Arenales and at the same time travel in an all-terrain vehicle with adrenaline pumping, this is the place. Our guides Francisco and Jarvin are excellent and thanks to them the experience was incredible. They were always very attentive to the group. Thank you all!!!!

We experienced a wide range of terrain and scenery for a most enjoyable ATV tour. Equipment was comfortable and in top shape while travel was expertly guided. Great way to see the entire area in a few hours.

We had a tour with Oscar, the tour was amazing. We could drive a 4x4 ATV through beautiful landscapes. To a viewpoint, lake with a rope and swim in a river. We enjoyed and the tourguide was really kind!
