Our experience with Quad Aventura Costa del Sol
It all started kind of casually. A few days ago, while chatting with some friends about what to do in Málaga to disconnect from stress and escape monotony in an active way, one of them said: “There are quad routes through the Guadalhorce that are amazing!” And of course, we couldn’t resist. So off we went.

A quad tour through the Guadalhorce Natural Area: pure freedom
From the very first moment, the Quad Aventura Costa del Sol team welcomed us with a smile, and their guides —friendly, funny, and with a great vibe— made us feel right at home. There were three of us: we had booked in advance two single quads and one double quad from their website to try both options. Honestly, I definitely preferred the freedom of driving that beast on my own, so I chose the single quad and… what a blast! One of my friends, who started with some doubts driving the double, ended up switching to passenger mode to enjoy part of the ride with arms wide open in the wind, Titanic style (yes, literally).
But let’s talk more about the route and less about us: imagine being out in nature, riding along country paths, crossing flocks of sheep, horses, and even a super-friendly donkey (almost part of the team), and as if it were a movie set, planes flying so low it feels like you could touch them. All this, without leaving the Costa del Sol and in just one afternoon. A real gem for fans of adventure tourism in Málaga.
Want the full experience? Go for the 3-hour route!
For us, it was clear: the long route! And I think it was the best decision. We drove through technical sections, went through a motocross circuit, stopped for photos, and even splashed in the Guadalhorce River.
We had already done 4×4 and buggy tours before and thought we knew the deal, but what we found at Quad Aventura Costa del Sol was a very pleasant surprise.
Whether it’s your first time or you’ve already tried an ATV, there’s a guided quad tour for every level, from beginners to the most experienced. No one is left out.
Spoiler: we ended up exhausted, but smiling
The 3-hour route is intense, yes, and maybe for those not so used to this type of activity, the 2-hour one is the perfect option. But we went for the long one… and wow, did we enjoy it. We ended up wrecked, but smiling from ear to ear.
Just looking at us makes you hungry, right? Imagine how we felt finishing at 1:00 p.m.… we were starving! At that moment, finding a place to eat, with our explorer look and without a reservation, seemed impossible. But Álvaro, the owner, already had it all sorted: he recommended Venta Bakanan, just five minutes by car from Quad Aventura’s facilities. And what a great choice!
Food and biker vibes to wrap up the day
I need to pause here to talk about a real local gem in Churriana: Venta Bakanan. There we met Pereira, the manager, who has created a true temple for motor lovers. A place with soul, carefully designed decor, and service that’s hard to find these days.
We went for the full menu: drink, starter, main course, dessert and coffee. All homemade, generous portions, and a fantastic atmosphere… and all for less than €15 per person!
Without a doubt, the perfect ending to an intense and awesome day. We’ll be back for sure.
What’s included in the Quad Aventura experience? From the inside
There’s something I must highlight: here they don’t just hand you the quad and say “off you go.” Not at all. From the first minute you feel you’re in good hands. The guides explain everything clearly, make you feel confident, and spread their positive energy. You can tell they love what they do, and that changes everything.
Before heading out, they equipped us with helmets, protection gear, and gave us a free bottle of water —which, when Málaga’s hot terral wind kicks in, trust me, is a blessing. Plus, they take photos of you along the route so you get a great keepsake (and some Instagram-worthy shots too!).
But what we really didn’t expect and that blew us away was the super cool photocall set up at their facilities. We almost missed it at first, but the magic happened later, when they brought out a trunk full of the most surreal and funny costumes: alien glasses, pirate hats, wigs, bandanas, and, of course, the star of the day… THE BANANAAAAAA! 🍌 Seriously, it was absolute madness. We laughed like kids, took incredible photos, and capped off the adrenaline rush from the ride. That little big detail, that “plus,” is what transforms a good activity into an unforgettable experience. Honestly: I’ve done similar activities, both inside and outside Málaga, and I had never seen anything like this. (Here are some photos from other groups having a blast, since there were only four of us and it doesn’t quite show off as much as it deserves).
No doubt, these guys go the extra mile so that everyone leaves with a different memory full of surprises.
And speaking of surprises, don’t forget our promo code: if you decide to give it a try too, you’ll get an exclusive €20 discount using the code “infotourmalaga20” when booking as part of the Infotour Málaga community. Don’t miss out!
A LITTLE PROMO (BUT WITH GOOD REASON 😄)
We know this sounds a bit like an ad, but trust us: when a local company does things this well and helps you disconnect, have fun, and live such an awesome experience… they deserve to be recommended. So, as a thank you, we decided to tell you all about Quad Aventura Costa del Sol and why we believe their quad tours are among the very best things you can do in Málaga if you’re looking for nature, adrenaline, and fun.
An epic experience for those looking for outdoor adventure activities in Málaga with a wild twist.
You know, if you feel like disconnecting, laughing hard, and living an epic adventure in the middle of nature, this is the best opportunity. We’re already planning to do it again… but next time, we’re bringing the whole gang!
Requirements: What license do I need to drive a quad?
You only need a type B car license. If you’ve got it, you’re good to go! Plus, if you’re coming with family, kids over 7 and up to 14 years old ride for free as passengers. Perfect if you’re looking for different and safe family activities in Málaga.
Birthdays, bachelor parties or team building: you bring the vibes, they provide the quad and everything else
Since there were no tours scheduled right after ours, we took the chance to chat a bit more with Álvaro and the team. They told us a bit about their story and how, over the past year, they’ve specialized in organizing custom events: birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette parties, team building… whatever you can think of!
They prepare everything in detail: personalized T-shirts, balloon decorations, lively music, the photocall I mentioned above with the costumes, and of course, a final sparkling cava toast. What more could you ask for? Well, actually, yes—you can ask for more, because you can also add a cake, a full menu at Venta Bakanan, and goodies like keychains, stickers, and exclusive merchandise.
So, I think it’s all said: if you’re looking for a group activity in Málaga, this quad excursion is exactly what you need. Whether it’s a plan with friends, a company outing, or that bachelor/bachelorette party that has to be epic, here you have an unforgettable experience made just for you. A turnkey adventure, hassle-free, with the unique touch of Quad Aventura Costa del Sol.
