5.00We scheduled the UTV centipede tour for me. my wife, my daughter, and my 73 year old mother in law. We all loved to ride, scenery, and experience. The UTV was so much smoother riding than I expected. 8 am was great time to beat the heat. Our guide Sami was great. She was kind, patient, and informative.
