Individual quad bike hire
It is also possible to hire a quad bike and then explore the island independently. Please note, however, that there is hardly any signposting on the island. The only 2 petrol stations are located in the capital Sal Rei.
A deposit of 200 euros in cash is required for the hire.
The original driving licence must be presented, a copy or photo is not sufficient.
The hire period is from 9 am to 6 pm. You will be picked up from your hotel and driven to Quadzone, where you will pick up the quad bike. After returning the quad you will have a transfer back to the hotel.
The price for the rental is 110 euros, petrol is not included, so it must be filled up before return.
