Quad Tour on Biokovo from Makarska: Which One, and Is It for You?
Updated October 20, 2026 · 6 min read
The short answer
For a first quad ride above Makarska, the sensible choice is one of the two 3-hour tours to the Skywalk at €70 per person, both rated 5.0: the Quad Tour on Biokovo with Skywalk visit (263 reviews) and the Quad Tour to Skywalk Biokovo with a snack (182 reviews). If you want a shorter, cheaper ride without the mountain, the 2-hour ATV safari is €49.

All prices are per person, as the listings state.
What separates them
The ATV safari (€49, 2 hours). It follows paths the listing calls known only to locals, with views of the Makarska Riviera and the islands. Along the way you taste candied almonds and see a filming location of Game of Thrones. The listing does not mention the Skywalk, so treat it as the shorter, lower-key ride.
The two top-rated Skywalk quads (€70, 3 hours). One is described as a small group of four quads, “a more personal experience”, with wildlife to spot and the Skywalk view. The other is run by Quad Amigos Makarska, with a snack, mountain trails and the Skywalk at 1,228 metres. Their descriptions are close; the snack and the operator are the visible differences. Check the booking pages for group size and meeting point.
The guided quad tour (€70, 3 hours). Same price, lower rating at 4.6 from 79 reviews. It describes a walk on the glass Skywalk and panoramic views from the top. Nothing in the listing explains the gap in ratings, so read the recent reviews.
The Dalmatian platter tour (€190, 3 hours). The listing adds a stop for a traditional Dalmatian tasting, with views of the Adriatic and the islands. It is more than two and a half times the price of the plain ride, and the listing does not say what the extra €120 buys beyond the tasting; look at the “includes” section and the group size before you decide.
What the Skywalk ticket costs on a quad tour
The Skywalk itself is part of Biokovo Nature Park, which charges entry. Whether the entry fee is in the tour price is not stated in the short descriptions, so check the “includes” list for your tour before you compare. Our Skywalk guide shows how much this matters: two of the Skywalk tours state outright that the park entry is paid separately.
Who can ride
The operators set their own rules for age, licence and health, and they are not stated in the listing, so we give no numbers. Expect a driving licence to be asked for, and read the participant requirements on the booking page before you book for a family. If a teenager or a child is part of your group, find out whether they can ride as a passenger or drive, and how the operator handles it.
Who should skip it
- Anyone with back, neck or heart problems, or who is pregnant: read the health notes on the booking page, and ask your doctor if in doubt.
- People who dislike dust and noise. A mountain track on a dry day is dusty; wear clothes you do not mind marking, and follow the operator’s list of what to bring.
- Anyone who wants a quiet viewpoint. If the Skywalk is the goal and the ride is not, a minibus or tuk-tuk tour is cheaper.
- People wary of heights. Mountain tracks and the glass floor combine both.
Quad, buggy or Land Rover?
If you want the same mountain without driving, the buggy tour (€59, 4 hours, 5.0 stars) and the Land Rover tours (from €50, 4.5 hours) are the passenger options. See all the quad, buggy and jeep tours in Makarska and the Skywalk tours.
Our recommendation
Book one of the two 5.0-rated tours at €70 and pick by the detail you care about: the snack and operator on one, the small group of four quads on the other. Take the €49 ATV safari if you want a cheaper, shorter taste. Treat the €190 tour as a tasting tour with a quad ride attached, and only choose it if the food is the draw.
