ATV tours are guided expeditions where guests ride an off-road vehicle on trails or dirt roads. Safety training is required before the tour, and participants must wear helmets. Guides provide insight into the area and may teach riding skills. Guides must be certified and trained in first aid.
ATV tours are guided expeditions led by experienced guides through rough terrain or other trails. Each guest will ride an ATV, or off-road vehicle, on trails or dirt roads. The difficulty of the trails or roads will depend on the skill level of the riders and the specific tour being conducted. Before participating in any of the ATV tours offered, participants must undergo a short safety training session where they will be shown how to operate the vehicles correctly and what to do in case of an emergency.
Once participants have been instructed in the proper use of the vehicles, the ATV tours can begin. Each participant must wear a helmet and, in some cases, eye protection may be required. Each person will ride on their own ATV and all ATV tours off-roaders will follow an experienced guide on trails or dirt roads. The guide will be responsible for the safety of all participants, which means that he should never lose sight of all ATV riders during the trip. In many cases, the guide will give participants advice on how to handle certain trail conditions and educate participants on the area in which they are riding.
While not all ATV tours include such instruction, most guides are knowledgeable about the area they are traveling in and can provide some insight into the region’s highlights. In some cases, the guide can provide participants with information on the ecology of the area, the evolution of trail riding in a particular region, and additional information relating to the area or the sport. If the trip is a multi-day tour, the guide will be responsible for helping participants set up tents and will most likely be responsible for cooking meals.
If the ATV tours are educational, the guide(s) may work with each participant to help them develop ATV riding skills. This may mean improving the handling of your vehicle, using attachments such as winches, learning to navigate exceptionally steep streams or trails, or descending difficult terrain. Every guide must be certified to lead ATV tours, regardless of the skill levels of the riders and the particular skills being taught. Guides must also be trained in first aid and, in some cases, nature medicine so that they can respond to emergency situations.
