A fun, fantastic ride through the hill country. It’s our first time to rent a Slingshot, and the experience was outstanding! It really added so much to the enjoyment of our visit to this beautiful area of Texas. We enjoyed the scenery of the Devil’s Backbone and the ride alongside the Guadalupe River. Highly recommended!!
A great experience!

We give this experience 5 stars! It was so worth it. We saw the countryside of San Antonio. Beautiful scenery especially along the Guadeloupe River. Lots of places to stop and eat. Highly recommend the rooftop covering to protect against the Texas heat. Kenny was so helpful!
We were in San Antonio...
