Epic views and adventures - Epic adventure. They allowed us to really rip. The views from Cache mountain were next level and the Skylight caves were cool (wear something reflective for more fun with the skylights). Dan was an awesome guide ensuring we knew all the sights we were looking at. If you're not decided, just do it.

Look no further for your ultimate off-road nature adventure! - Don’t let their off the beaten path location sway your decision to go - these guys are a top notch operation through and through! Excellent follow through on inquiries and the staff does everything in their power to make your experience a memorable one.
The off road carts are top notch and the trails are amazing - you get to go into areas that are breathtakingly beautiful in the comfort of your trail buggy. You can opt for the open air buggy (better ride, full immersion in nature) or the fully enclosed climate controlled version (rougher ride, additional expense) - either way you will get to stop on the trail to see views that most people get to see either as screen savers or on travel blogs!
Totally recommend you carve out a day to visit when you are in the area!

The Best ATV Adventure We've Ever Had! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hands down the best outdoor adventure we've ever had! The views were absolutely breathtaking, from the desert scenery to the incredible lakes and overlooks. We booked the 4-hour tour, but honestly wish we had chosen the 8-hour because there was so much more we wanted to explore.
Pro tip: Bring your swimsuit or a float so you can enjoy the beautiful lakes along the way. The ATVs were great, the guides were fantastic, and the entire experience was unforgettable. We can't wait to come back!

10/10 highly recommend! - My fiancée and I had the best time on this excursion! The ATVing was super fun and good for all levels of experience. The ATVs themselves were great - ours had Bluetooth so we were able to play music while we cruised around and they use a GPS system that makes it easy to not get lost. The sights we saw were beautiful and the cave was really cool. Our guide was super friendly and let the group dictate the pace. Even though it was raining during a lot of our trip it actually added to the experience and truly made us feel like we were on vacation. The people who helped with the helmet and goggles in the beginning were super nice as well and gave us good restaurant and activity recommendations for afterwards. Overall a seamless experience and highly recommend to anyone visiting Bend or Sisters!

Just do it- awesome - Awesome experience from beginning to end. Just do it, you won't regret it. Expect to get real "dusty" but that's all part of it.
