We have the easiest bikes to ride, they are big, stable and fully automatic. You just focus on controlling the speed with your thumb and braking to stop (no worries about any gears!).
Additionally we have our UNIQUE BUMPER BALLS! A first at the Atlantis Sand Dunes! You will be bumping and bouncing off each other in no time and rolling down hills like a kid again! (Please note we do not charge for the bumper ball, it’s a free value added service but you will have to buy your own permit for the bumper balls at the nature reserve permit office if you decide to do the bumper balls)
Yes, providing you follow the simple rules and instructions given to you by your guide. You will be told the Do’s and Don’ts of riding quad bikes (ATVs) on arrival. If these simple rules are disregarded while on your tour, you will be asked to leave the tour. This is purely for your safety and the safety of other passengers.
Yes you can. These bikes are very easy to ride due to the fact that it is fully automatic. Everyone receives a bike familiarisation and clear instructions before you set off on your adventure. No drivers licence required, we’re riding on private property.
We settled on fully automatic 4×4, 276cc water cooled quad bikes. Our bikes are extremely user friendly and well balanced for use on the Sand Dunes. They provide plenty of power and comfort to do all that we need to do as part of the touring experience that we offer.
If you’re a ‘first timer’ don’t be worried as we cater to the riding experience and ability of everyone. The bike has an automatic thumb throttle action, so you’ll be riding the dunes like an expert at no time.
Each activity has a set time period, although most are an hour long and we do our best to make sure that our clients get as much riding time out as possible.
Granted, activity time can be affected by clients not showing up on time. So please be aware that we might have to leave you behind should this be the case. So please don’t be late. Every tour commences with a 10 minute bike familiarization and safety briefing.
This is important when considering that some customers may have never been on a quad bike or any of our other experience activities before.
