Quad Rental FAQ
How much is a quad in Paphos?
From €100 a day for the quad, not per person — two of you can share one. The day rate drops the longer you keep it: around €90 a day over three days and €80 a day over five. A guided quad safari starts at €80 per quad on the shorter route. Exact prices depend on the quad and the dates, so message us with what you need and we’ll come back with the real figure.
Can two people ride one quad?
Yes. The quads we arrange are two-up, so the price is for the quad and two of you can share it. One of you drives and holds the licence; the passenger doesn’t need one.
Do I need experience to ride a quad?
For a self-drive quad rental, no — the quads are automatic, twist-and-go, with no gears. For a guided quad safari it depends on the operator: some ask you to confirm prior quad-riding experience before they’ll take the booking, and buggy experience doesn’t count for them. We ask that question before you pay anything, so nothing is a surprise on the day.
Do I need a driving licence for a quad?
Yes — every quad is self-drive, so the rider needs a valid, normal (non-professional) driving licence. A passenger sharing the quad doesn’t.
What is the minimum age for a quad?
It depends on the vehicle and operator — generally 21+, sometimes 23+ for the larger vehicles. Message us with your group’s ages and we’ll confirm exactly what you qualify for.
Is there a deposit on a quad rental?
Yes — a refundable €300 security deposit, returned in full when the quad comes back in good shape. It can be a hold on your card (not charged) or cash left at the office, whichever you prefer. Guided safari tours require no security deposit.
Can I cancel or change my booking?
Cancellation and no-show terms depend on the operator that fulfils your booking. We confirm them to you in writing on WhatsApp at the time of booking.
Am I insured on a quad? What if it gets damaged?
Third-party insurance is included on every rental — that covers damage to other people and their property. Cyprus law doesn’t allow full collision cover on these vehicles, so damage to the quad itself is down to the rider: the security deposit is used first, and anything above it is settled directly with the operator. Every rental company on the island works this way.
Where can I take a quad?
On a self-drive rental you can reach Adonis Baths, the Sea Caves, the Edro III shipwreck and Avakas Gorge; Lara Bay is allowed on some vehicles. The Blue Lagoon isn’t permitted on any self-drive rental — the buggy road is closed and it sits outside the area rental agreements cover. Tell us where you want to go before you book and we’ll say what’s permitted.
What are the quad rental hours?
A standard rental day runs from 9am to between 4pm and 5pm, depending on the vehicle and the operator. An evening return or an overnight rental is possible on some vehicles — on some there’s a small extra charge, on others there isn’t. Tell us the hours you want when you message and we’ll confirm the vehicle and the exact price before you book.
Do you pick up from my hotel?
Yes. Free hotel pickup and drop-off is included with quad rentals, and free hotel pickup is included with safari tours.
