3.Istanbul Quad Bike Safari with Optional Zipline Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 25 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $110

Ride an ATV through Belgrad Forest about 30 minutes from Istanbul. No license or prior experience is required. Your booking includes one hour of quad biking, fuel, a helmet, and a local guide. The optional zipline costs extra, and hotel transfers are not included.

“The quad bike adventure is something different to do whilst in Istanbul aside from shopping and sightseeing etc. The bike path took a good 40-45mins which was worth the amount paid. We came to a stop half way where the guide took photos for everyone in the group and trailing behind the pack was another guide for anyone that stopped along the way for help. Easy to understand the use of handles; right bar was the accelerator and left bar was the brake. The quad bike went at your speed of pressure and easy to manoeuvre. I was a solo traveller that was put in with an European tour group.…”
