We’re pretty sure that quad biking is NOT the first choice for a team-building activity for many companies. The best thing about pulling off a great team-building activity is nothing like knowing that you have had a really productive day – filled with memorable moments and valuable experiences. While there are lots of different ways to build teams, the unfortunate truth is that the majority of them just aren’t all that much fun. For this reason, quad biking might be the right choice for you.
Find out in this article why it’s time to start shaking up your team-building experience by booking yourself some quad biking time.
What are the three main benefits of team building?

The four reasons why quad biking is such a dynamic team-building activity
If your team is looking for a fun and unique way to bond, quad biking might be just the activity you need! Here are four reasons why quad biking makes for an excellent team-building exercise:
- It’s a unique experience: Most people haven’t had the chance to go quad biking, so it’s a great opportunity for your team to try something new together.
- It’s thrilling: Quad biking is a lot of fun, and it can be exhilarating for your team members. This is a great way to get everyone’s adrenaline pumping and to bond over a shared experience.
- It requires teamwork: In order to ride a quad bike, you need to work together with another person. This is a great opportunity for your team to practice communication and teamwork skills. The general rule for our quad biking tours is that you ride at the pace of your slowest driver, and so teamwork is essential.
- It’s outdoors: Quad biking takes place outdoors, which means your team will get to enjoy the fresh air and beautiful scenery while they bond with each other.
What type of facilities can you expect?
When it comes to quad biking, there are a few key things that you’ll want to look for in a good facility. Firstly, the quad biking activities are located at the Atlantis Dunes in the Witzands Aquifer Nature Reserve. This means that there is no “track” to drive on, so it’s best to dress accordingly.
Secondly, although every precaution and safety protocol is followed, along with a safety and orientation session from the tour guide and facilitators, it is best to bring along any additional safety items, such as medication and sunscreen, that you may need.
The Breathless Nomad team can also assist with any catering requirements that you may wish to include in your team-building activities for the day at an additional cost. This can be arranged during your booking process.
Remember that the activities take place at the Nature Reserve, there are no formal mess halls or dine-in facilities at the Atlantis Dunes; therefore your catering requirements may take place in a tented zone. Alternatively, we can arrange for meals at another nearby dine-in location.
When is the best time to book a quad biking tour for team building?
Planning a team-building event can be difficult, as there are so many things to think about! But one important question you might be wondering is when the best time to book a quad biking tour for your team is.
Generally, the best time to book a quad biking tour for team-building purposes is during the spring or summer months. This is because the weather is usually more stable during these times of the year, meaning that there will be less chance of your event being cancelled due to bad weather.
Of course, this isn’t to say that you can’t have a successful team-building event if you book a tour during other times of the year – it just might be riskier in terms of the weather. If you want to book a tour during autumn or winter, keep an eye on the forecast in the lead-up to your event and have a contingency plan in case it does rain on the day.
Whatever time of year you decide to book your tour, make sure to do your research. Feel free to ask questions from the experts at Breathless Nomad, who will ensure that your team has a fun experience.
