“We had a blast riding through the mountains on the 4-wheelers!!! We got picked up at the destination spot on time. Once we arrived at our tour spot, our guides took time to explain how to use the ATV since we had some newbies in our group. I would suggest bringing a snack/food since the tour is a few hours long. We were provided with some delicious fruit snacks but were pretty hungry once we returned home. Also, I would suggest bringing a change of clothes. We didn't get completely dirty, but the trails had a lot of dirt and some mud and we didn't want to ride back home…”
