Reserve Fees

Atlantis Dunes Permit and Conservation Fee

All quad bike riders require a valid permit to enter the Atlantis Dunes riding area inside the Witzands Aquifer Nature Reserve.

A compulsory permit and conservation fee of R300 per rider is added to the advertised quad biking tour price. This fee supports controlled access and conservation management within the protected reserve.

The permit fee applies to every rider, including riders joining private, transfer, birthday, group and corporate packages.

Permit availability is limited and all tours remain subject to reserve access, weather conditions and daily permit availability.

The permit fee is determined by the reserve and may change. Any change will be confirmed before payment.
