Your Steed Awaits
And by steed we mean UTV. Not a horse. But these DO have plenty of horse power. Choose from 3 different vehicles below to drive, and experience a truly rugged, off-road adventure.
UTV Tours Include
90 Minutes Behind the Wheel
For an hour and a half, the world is your oyster. Except in this case, “the world” is a dirt trail and “the oyster” is a UTV you control at your own speed. We never said metaphors are our strength.
Private Off-Road Trails
When we say off-road, we mean offfffffff road. At WildSide you’ll be navigating dirt trails deep in an old-growth forest without any pavement in sight.
Expert Guides & Small Tour Sizes
Our expert guides will lead the way helping you navigate the trails throughout the tour.
Plenty of Photo Opps
As we know, nothing actually happened unless you can post about it on social media. Thankfully, there will be LOTS of opportunities to take photos for future posting.
Safety Gear
While we make a lot of jokes here, safety is something we take very seriously. Get outfitted with everything you need to ride safely in style.
Arrival
Please make sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled tour time to allow ample time for check-in.
