The ride was awesome. Dont book the sidewinder if you want awesome trails. Book either the guided or nonguided catapillar and go direct to website to book. Equipment was excellent as well as the guide. They give you a sock cover for your head and face with helmut and goggles. Had a blast and would do it again!!

Now, what started off to be a pleasant ride ended up on my GoPro as rude, inappropriate, and unnecessary. My family and I did the ATV run and I brought my GoPro. I asked the attendant Cody to capture some shots on the camera, because I was unable. I get home to review the footage and in one of the videos we made mistakes and he told us to give each other room, fair enough. At the end of the video, I heard him call us dumb f*cking c*nts. Now, why was that needed for people who are on the training course essentially still learning. What did we do to warrant being called inappropriate names? Is it because we were women or was it because we were black women? Whatever the reason may be it is not valid and I want to ensure other people know how you treated some beginner ATV riders because they made mistakes. I absolutely wish I could upload the video instead of pictures!

I took my boyfriend for his birthday and we had an amazing experience. It was so much fun and the scenery was breathtaking. Our tour guide was Beau and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He was knowledgeable, patient and took some amazing picture of us. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
