A driver's license is required if you intend to drive a vehicle. For example, we have 4 vehicles at our disposal, each vehicle is designed for two passengers, so if you are alone or there are two of you, one of the participants must have a driver's license.

We have two Polaris RZR 1000s and two CFORCE520L NEW ATVs in our off-road touring fleet. As a rule we go one way in one group, on the way back we change. MAXIMUM OF 8 PARTICIPANTS: 4 DRIVERS AND 4 PASSENGERS. 2 SxS POLARIS and 2 CFORCE 520L are used on the tours Please note the following conditions when booking: 1-2 participants in one SxS is 1 driver and 0-1 passenger. 3-4 participants in two SxS is 2 drivers and 0-2 passengers. 5-6 participants in two SxS and one ATV is 3 drivers and 0-3 passengers. 7-8 participants in two SxS and two ATVs is 4 drivers and 0-4 passengers. For example, if you are 4 participants and everyone wants to drive a vehicle, you would need to take a tour with 7-8 participants. If you are alone and you want to drive then you need to take a tour with 1-2 participants. If you do not want to drive and want to tour as a passenger, then you need to book a tour according to the number of participants and we will provide our driver but the number of passengers should not exceed 4 participants; specify in writing beforehand if you want a tour but do not wish to drive.

Start the vehicle only with the brake applied and with the gear selector in gear (P). Make sure that the seat belts are fastened (if any) and that nothing is obstructing the vehicle. Move the selector lever to the (H) position for forward travel or to the (R) position for reverse travel and look around again. Gently pedal into gear, the vehicle will move slightly and you will hear and feel that the vehicle is ready to move, start moving. On high rises or in difficult terrain, stop and shift the selector lever to (L) and 4WD.
