A live guide leads the group through all stops and provides safety instruction before you ride.Is it for me?Choose a solo machine if you want to set your own pace through the mud and make all the steering decisions; pick a shared buggy if you'd rather ride as a passenger or bring a second adult to split the driving. Either way, the guide handles the route and the stops, so you focus on the ride and the landscape instead of navigation.
