What to bring

  • Closed shoes you can get wet and muddy
  • Clothes you do not mind ruining
  • Your physical driver’s licence if you plan to drive
  • Sunscreen, insect repellent and water
  • A card for any deposit the operator requires

Ask before you book

  • Is the price per person or per machine?
  • Can a passenger ride with me, and from what age?
  • Is there a damage deposit, and how is it taken?
  • What happens if it rains heavily?
