Your senses are in for a treat on this day of exploring Kos by quad bike. First up, you'll head to the Alykes Salt Lake, where there's a minerally tang in the air as you whizz across the former salt pan. It's now a protected natural area, so don't be surprised to see pink flamingos fishing in the shallow waters by the white salt crust. Then comes the true off-road experience as you climb into the pine-filled mountains. Your tyres will kick up the unmistakable herby smell of the Mediterranean – think wild thyme, oregano and sage. Your trail is dotted with stand-out viewpoints and little cafes where you can recharge while looking out over the Aegean, before finishing the tour with a traditional Greek lunch.
