Notes

ROADWORKS ALERT: Due to ongoing roadworks and with the festive season starting, please expect delays of up to 40min. We recommend setting your arrival time (on Google Maps) for 40min prior to your booking time starting, which should give you the longest time it will take. Please be sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before your time slot begins to ensure your indemnity is completed and you receive the safety briefing.

Any riders arriving late will forfeit time out of their booking. A minimum of 2 riders is required for a ride to go out. Group size limited to 15 riders. For larger parties, please contact us so we can accommodate your needs. No under 5’s on Quad Bikes. 5 – 15yr olds are required to drive with an Adult. This service is weather dependent. All of our trails are led by experienced guides, ensuring a safe and memorable experience. We are conscious about the environment, we respect nature and adhere to strict operating guidelines to protect the amazing space we operate in.

We do not allow any rider over 95kg on a horse, or any rider over 110kg on a quad bike, and reserve the right to put a rider on a scale should we feel that they are over the weight limit. If you are over the weight limit when making the booking you will not be liable for a refund.

The Horse Drawn Carriage is a great option for persons over 100kg, but we do need to be notified in advance to ensure there is space on our carriage.

All riders are required to wear a helmet. Helmets are tight fitting; please note that wigs or extensions can cause the helmets to not fit. Therefore, we request that all riders have their hair in a practical hairstyle when coming for horse or quad bike riding as no one will be allowed out without a helmet. If you have any concerns about the above restriction, we recommend booking a carriage ride and/or a glamorous photoshoot instead.

Customer Reviews

What a memorable and great experience! There are such terrific views of the mountains, wildlife and birds. To say that our guide was brilliant is an understatement too! Very, very highly recommended to anyone and everyone. Can't wait to do it again (and again) ? - Hilary


What I fun morning. Lovely hosts & gorgeous views. - Ronel


Wine Valley Adventures 2 Hour Quad Bike tour was both interesting and a whole lot of fun. We booked as a family of 6 adults ranging from absolutely no previous experience to just a bit of experience. Seeing the fun in the faces of the family as we went through both scenic, and in some places mildly challenging tracks, was just magic. The family all raved about their experience afterwards. The Wine Valley Adventures team are down to earth people. They made sure we were never stuck, or lost and that we all had fun. They were just great and helped to make the experience all and more than we expected. I have no hesitation in recommending this experience. It was just awesome. Regards Vic Currin - Vic


My son and I had a fantastic time on the 2 hour quad trail ride. The leadership and guiding was faultless and the scenery breath-taking. The ride took us through a variety of trails and environments giving us a great opportunity to explore this part of the Paarl valley. I would thoroughly recommend it ! - Lewis


Took my daughter for her first quad ride. Instruction was great and she felt comfortable, supported and confident the whole way up and down the mountain on her own. The bikes we great and well maintained. What a beautiful place to ride, we will cherish the memories. Bucket list stuff! Thanks to the team! - MikeT
