Need for speed - Had a AWESOME time. My first couple routes, I was busy just looking around. I appreciate my guide wanting to tear around the jungle but I was busy marveling lol. I got to take pictures amd we stopped at some of the attractions but that wasn't for me. After we got back from the top of the hill....I had the need...the need for speed and my guide obliged. We kept going around and around. It was easier for us to cruise because it was just he and I.

Great choice for an afternoon excursion - This was the perfect afternoon excursion! We wanted to venture off of the beach area but most of the day trips went 7-9 hours. This one featured hotel pickup, a scenic trip to the bottom of the mountain where Big Buddha it's, and am ATV ride up to the top. Our guide, Ka, was very patient with us especially considering we had never been on ATVs before. We had ample time to shop for souvenirs and he even took a video of us riding! I would definitely come back next time we are in Phuket.

Perfect Couples Phuket ATV Adventure - The whole experience was really organised and fun, right from the start when booking online, our pickup and drop off from our hotel and the ATV adventure itself. We got picked up on time but traffic made us a little late, I messaged ahead to make the staff aware and they responded within minutes to assure us it would be ok. Once we arrived the checkin was so well organised and staff were very helpful in getting us ready, even giving advice on sunscreen, insect repellent and only take valuables leaving the rest of out belongings behind as they would get dirty or wet. We had a great time ripping through the jungle on safe, well maintained quad bikes, and despite English not being his first language, our guide was very helpful, funny and friendly in making our experience one to remember. We rode through some beautiful jungle trails, stopped at some amazing viewpoints and got some lovely photos of us with the beach views and the Big Buddha. Although the Big Buddha was closed for so repair/construction, we were still able to stop close by for a few photos. We were even able to see a few monkeys, elephants and other wildlife/ cheeky local dogs and chickens. We didn’t need to take water, as the guide gave us some cold bottles periodically throughout the time we were there, even a few lollies as well. Highly recommend this one for all. We will be back to try the zip line and paintball another day. Thanks again

Fun, but Chained up Elephants along the way - This was very fun. The guide is attentive to your safety. One of our members had zero experience and was able to keep up with the guide’s hand signals and directions. You can expect to get a pick up truck ride up to the ATV course. Then do some ATV, you will stop for some photos. Then, you will park your ATV and get into another pick up truck to get to the Big Buddha site, which is currently closed due to a landslide). The guide warned us about the monkeys. I watched a monkey with a baby take an apple off a table. This is kind of sad that they are so displaced. But they did not seem violent. The view is just breathtaking and beautiful near the Big Buddha site. However, I should say that the ride in the pick up to see the Big Buddha site is very sad. You will see elephants chained up. You will see a very thin and frail elephant logging. You will see baby elephants chained up. There are baskets of fruit that you can buy for 300 THb to feed the elephants. It’s very sad to see the animals. I don’t t think this tour service has anything to do with the elephants, but you will have to drive through this to see the Big Buddha from this route. It does take away from some of the good feelings. After this, you will return to ATV riding. Then do a giant swing. Fun, and very safe. But the sadness of the elephants still linger.

Great experience for adrenaline junkies! - We had to make our own way to a hotel in Pa Tong as this was the only pick up option and our hotel was in Karon. We had to do this at 8:15 in the morning. Pick up was on time and it was a large Tuktuk type vehicle. We were in the back for a short journey to another hotel and met up with another vehicle. On route to the location I noticed the road looked familiar and we were in fact driving past our hotel -.- which seemed like a waste of journey to us. Check in procedure was quick and was given a wrist band and told to wait in an area with lockers. We were quickly fitted with a harness and after a short while loaded into a tutkuk to the zipline jungle area. You start with a small zipline but then get increasingly higher and longer. It was a lot of fun and not scary as they secure you well. You can take small cross body bags with you and I saw someone had a small backpack. After finishing the ziplines we crossed the road (literally) to begin on the quad bikes. After being in a group it was nice to have just us with the leader and meant we could go at our own pace as we had previously driving quadbikes before and was very comfortable. The roads are used by others and you do have to be careful when coming round corners and over taking. The roads are also used by elephants which are forced to carry tourists as a means of entertainment. It's horrible to see the elephants chained up. Please don't ride elephants. It's cruel. There are sanctuaries out there where you can meet and feed elephants. It's so much nicer to see them roam free. We were taken to a big swing on the edge of a cliff which was fun. Big Buddha wasn't open but we already knew this. Was saw it from a viewpoint. At the end we were dropped back into PaTong beach area. Overall good experience.

Disorganized but fun - I was really excited to do this and I still had fun but there were a few problems with this booking. It said that it would cover transport to and from the location and it didn't. No one spoke any English, while yes, I understand that this is Thailand, the tour is being advertised on an English speaking site. We were riding the ATV after heavy rainfall so the paths were non existent and the ATV kept almost flipping over. Quite honestly, I'm not sure we should've been allowed to drive through the jungle in those conditions. Since transport was included in the booking, I was expecting a ride back but no one who worked there seemed to know. Someone called the agency that handles the viator bookings and confirmed that I paid extra for transport. They then asked everyone to see who could take me back on the back of their scooter. This was pretty disorganized but I got back safely and in the end, it was pretty fun.

Atvs great , big Buddha scam - I paid to do the atvs & big Buddha the atvs were amazing along with our guide who was great fun but I was severely disappointed by big Buddha which is under construction and you can’t actually get to see it which the company does not disclose, they are very happy to take your money but don’t inform you about the construction work so I would suggest missing out on big Buddha until construction is finished
