Looking for Quad Bike Hire Cape Town? Breathless Nomad creates unforgettable outdoor adventures, tours and experiences across Cape Town, Atlantis and the Western Cape.
Whether you want to ride across spectacular white sand dunes, experience the thrill of sandboarding, explore the landscape in a 4×4 or combine several activities into one incredible day, our experiences are designed to show you a different side of the Western Cape.
From couples and families to international visitors, private groups and corporate teams, we make it easy to turn an ordinary day out into an adventure worth remembering.
The Atlantis Dunes are home to some of the Western Cape’s most spectacular outdoor adventures. Located within the Witzands Aquifer Nature Reserve, the enormous white sand dunes create an extraordinary landscape within easy reach of Cape Town.
One of the most popular ways to explore this unique environment is on our Cape Town quad biking experience. Ride across the dunes on powerful, easy-to-handle automatic Kawasaki quad bikes while experienced guides lead you through this remarkable landscape.
No previous quad biking experience is required. Before heading onto the dunes, guests receive riding instructions and a safety briefing, making the experience accessible to first-time riders as well as those who have ridden before.
Quad biking may be one of our signature experiences, but it is certainly not the only way to discover Atlantis.
Experience the thrill of sandboarding in Cape Town, where lightweight boards allow you to glide down the spectacular white slopes of the Atlantis Dunes.
For a completely different perspective, our 4×4 Dune Drive Experience takes you deeper into the landscape aboard an off-road vehicle, combining adventure with incredible viewpoints and photographic opportunities.
Visitors who want to experience more than one activity can also choose our Half-Day Adventure Package, bringing several Breathless Nomad experiences together into one memorable day.
Why stop at one experience? Breathless Nomad offers combination tours that connect the Atlantis Dunes with some of the Western Cape’s other incredible destinations and activities.
Combine the excitement of the dunes with the Cape Winelands on our Quad Biking and Wine Tasting Tour, which continues to the Durbanville Wine Valley for a distinctive wine tasting experience.
For those who prefer the coast, our Quad Biking and Kayaking Tour combines adventure on the dunes with time on the water, while the Quad Biking and Island Boat Tour takes the adventure towards Yzerfontein and the waters surrounding Dassen Island.
You can even combine the dunes with beach horse riding for an experience that moves from the white sands of Atlantis to the beautiful Cape West Coast.
For travellers looking for something even bigger, Breathless Nomad offers adventure combinations that extend far beyond the dunes.
Take to the skies before hitting the sand on our Quad Biking and Skydiving Tour, combining a tandem skydive with an exhilarating guided ride at Atlantis Dunes.
Alternatively, experience the mountains and ocean on our Zipline and Shark Cage Diving Tour, a two-day journey combining ziplining in Grabouw with a marine wildlife adventure in Gansbaai.
Not every Breathless Nomad adventure needs to involve an adrenaline rush. The Western Cape is equally famous for its food, wine and hospitality.
Our Cape Town Food Tour introduces guests to the city’s culinary scene through a curated journey of local venues, flavours and experiences.
For visitors who want a little of both worlds, our Quad Biking and Wine Tasting experience combines outdoor adventure at Atlantis with a relaxed visit to the beautiful Durbanville Wine Valley.
The Cape West Coast offers a completely different side of the Western Cape, with fishing villages, long beaches, open countryside and outdoor adventures waiting beyond Cape Town.
Our Yzerfontein and Darling Experience combines a Dassen Island boat trip, off-road adventure, local flavours, accommodation and beach horse riding into an unforgettable West Coast escape.
You can also explore the region over several days on our Paternoster and Riebeek Kasteel Tour, combining coastal villages, wildlife, adventure and beautiful Western Cape countryside.
For a wildlife-focused day out, the Atlantis Quad Biking and Safari Tour combines the dunes with a guided game drive for two very different experiences in one journey.
Breathless Nomad also creates private and multi-day journeys for travellers who want to explore further into the Western Cape.
Our Garden Route and Karoo Adventure Tour combines wildlife, dramatic coastline, caves, outdoor activities and some of South Africa’s most beautiful landscapes.
Alternatively, the Clanwilliam, Tulbagh and Ceres Mountains Tour travels beyond the traditional Cape Town tourist routes to discover mountain landscapes, country towns and memorable outdoor experiences.
Our tours can be customised according to your interests, available time and group requirements, allowing you to experience the Western Cape your way.
Breathless Nomad experiences are also ideal for groups looking for something different.
We welcome friends, families, birthday celebrations, corporate groups, team-building events and year-end functions. Experiences such as quad biking, sandboarding and 4×4 adventures offer groups an opportunity to get outdoors, share an adventure and spend time together away from the traditional restaurant, conference room or function venue.
Depending on your group size and requirements, activities can be combined into customised packages to create an experience that works for your team or occasion.
