Wonderful adventure - We loved this ride along winding roads and hills, passing along many ranches, beautiful scenery, through mountains, and bluffs along the river. It was great! It was all through a GPS that took us through this wonderful and fulfilling adventure. This was well worth it and beyond! Would love to do it again on another visit.

Great way to see the Hill Country! - 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!!
