Riding an ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle) in Bali is a fun adventure, but it’s important to be well-prepared and informed before embarking on the experience. Here are some important things to know before riding an ATV in Bali:
1. Experience level
The first thing to understand before riding an ATV in Bali is that you need to make sure you feel comfortable riding an ATV, especially if you plan on riding through rough terrain. Some ATV tours are designed for beginners, so don’t worry if you’ve never tried them before. In addition to beginners, there are ATV trails in Bali for experienced riders.
2. Safety Briefing
The Bali Quad Biking team will provide guidance before starting. Not all ATV tours generally provide safety guidance. But we always do because participant safety is our top priority. So read carefully the instructions given regarding vehicle operation, safety regulations, and driving guidelines.
3. Safety Equipment
After getting the safety instructions, you must make sure to use the safety equipment that we have prepared, usually a helmet and protective clothing. This is important for your safety when doing an ATV tour with us, so don’t miss it.
4. Follow the Instructions
We don’t just provide instructions on how to use an ATV, we will always supervise you throughout the tour which lasts for 1 hour 30 minutes. So, listen carefully to your guide’s instructions throughout the tour. They will provide guidance on how to navigate various terrains and obstacles.
5. Age and Health Requirements
There may be age and health restrictions for using an ATV. Of course there are because the insurance provisions in Indonesia are that those aged seven years and under are not guaranteed insurance in the event of an accident. And for ages seven to 12 years you can only take a friend’s ATV package (ride with one adult)
For pregnant women, bone problems, heart problems are not recommended because they can be fatal, because this activity is quite excessive for them. You must make sure to meet the following requirements to participate.
