An ATV tour is a popular way to explore Phuket’s countryside and rainforest. If you are looking for something different, it is a chance for adventure seekers and nature lovers to see a less visited side of the island.
The bumpy ride takes you through rainforest and rough terrain, past local villages and hidden waterfalls.
Let's Do This!
An ATV tour is a challenging ride up and down through Phuket’s thick rainforest, along bumpy, dirty and muddy trails.
The trails lead you through plantations and forests and up into the hills towards the Big Buddha. It is a chance to see local plants, meet local people and explore the interior of Phuket away from the crowds.
Rubber trees, mangroves, hillocks, beaches, jungles and rivers are some of the things you will come across.
When you arrive at the ATV camp, there is a safety briefing on how the ATVs work and how to control them. You are given a helmet and gloves, and a guide leads you through the trip. The first ride is on flat land while you get used to the machine and learn how to speed up and slow down, and then the tour moves on to harder terrain: narrow jungle trails, hilly curves and muddy tracks. Wear the helmet, follow the guide, and check that your travel insurance covers quad biking.
