Most fun ever!

Best time and most fun I ever had on a tour. We rode through large mudholes and over small boulders on a challenging safe trail. Our guide, Jacob, was outstanding. We are going again in the fall - can't wait!!!

Our guide was fantastic! The stop at the Lookout over the New River Gorge was definitely the highlight of the trip.

Both my wife and I took turns driving and our guide adjusted speeds accordingly based on the comfort level and skill of the driver.

TONS OF FUN!

My wife and I took the 1/2 day side by side tour with our grandson and had a blast. This was a much more enjoyable side by side tour then one we did earlier in the summer at a different location in North Carolina. I highly recommend this trip with New River ATV.

Playing in the mud

So much fun. We had never been ATVing before and everyone was so nice and made sure we were safe and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone that wants to go outside and play. Loved the side by side. It felt like we could take on any mudhole, rock or mountain.

Operator response

Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad your first ATV experience was a fun and comfortable one. Our team takes pride in making sure everyone feels safe and confident before hitting the trails. The side-by-sides are a blast — we love that you felt ready to take on anything out there! We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you back for another adventure soon.

Best.Trip.Ever. Must do!!

We had a GREAT adventure with tour guides, Josh & Brandon. We got to drive through mud holes & uneven terrain. Josh explained ‘tricky’ parts to us before we drove through them. We had opportunities to take awesome pictures & try new things! Exceptional adventure for 3 ladies in their 40’s. Josh even gave us some suggestions for other things to do in the area. We went to the Secret Sandwich Society for lunch & visited the historical town of Thurmond after lunch. **Only side note is that their online system doesn’t talk to TripAdvisor well so it appeared that we got billed for 3 rentals but we did not! Don’t fret if this happens to you 😀**

Operator response

Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great adventure with Josh and Brandon — mud, uneven terrain, and all! It’s awesome that you felt supported through the trickier spots and got to explore some hidden gems in the area afterward. Josh will be glad to know his local tips were a hit! We always recommend booking directly and avoiding third-party sites as they often come with complications that we cannot fix as they aren't on our end. We're glad it all worked out in the end and the experience was unaffected. We hope to see you again for another round of off-road fun soon!

Girls Trip adventure fun!

Excellent adventure for a girls trip!!! We went out on the side by side with Josh & Brandon, they were so fun and guided us through an amazing experience! Sarah is the office, was so sweet and professional, getting us all set up before and after our ride!

Operator response

Thank you for the awesome review! We're so glad your girls trip was filled with fun and adventure. Josh and Brandon are great at what they do, and we're happy they made the experience so memorable. We'll also be sure to pass along your kind words to Sarah—she’ll be thrilled to hear her efforts were appreciated. We’d love to have you all back for another ride anytime!

Bumpy challenging unique experience

The trip was long for 3 seventy plus women. The back seat was very rough ride compared to the front seat. The guide Mike was excellent. The staff was very good. An hour would have been great for us. The scenery was beautiful, loved the overlook.
