5.00As someone with no prior snowmobiling experience, I found this tour to be exceptionally well suited for beginners. Leon began the experience with a thorough 20-minute introduction, clearly explaining how to operate the snowmobile and what to expect throughout the tour. Once we were on the trails, he stopped frequently to ensure everyone was comfortable and safe, and to check if anyone needed assistance. Because of these regular check-ins, help was always available immediately if any issues arose. I truly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it to anyone new to snowmobiling—it is much easier than it looks!
Great Snowmobile Adventure
