My husband and 2 sons took the one hour ride so that my 14 year old could ride on his own ATV while my husband was in a UTV with our youngest. When they returned they RAVED about their adventure. We had been considering renting a UTV in Gatlinburg for around the same price. My husband was so happy that we opted for this tour instead. He was very impressed with the guide and the experience of driving the UTV. One mistake we did make was showing up without cash. My husband was so sincerely grateful for the experience with his guide, but had nothing to tip him with. He found him knowledgable with both the terrain and machines and very personable. Also, the lady in Pigeon Forge who sold us the tickets was wonderful. Very easy demeanor, and very knowledgeable with the different options.

As a family of four we decided to give ATV's a try this year. It did not disappoint! My mom was very nervous but our tour guide Chris was so friendly and helpful. He kept making sure she was okay and had her in the front right behind him. The trail had a variety of terrain from rocks to mud puddles. The view at the top was breathtaking. We did the 1 hour trail but next time we will definitely do the 1.5 hours now that we have some experience! Thank you Chris for making this experience amazing!

Breath taking views, our guide was kacey he was silly and made the trip better. The terrain was very rocky but my husband and I enjoyed it. You will get dirty so make sure you dress in something you don't mind getting dusty/muddy

This was my 2nd time here and today was even better!!! The tour guide, Jesse, did a fantastic job at giving us our money's worth. And also making some new memories. It was raining today. And I believe that made the tour that much more fun & exciting! You definitely want to make sure that you don't mind getting a little dirty as with the rain, it makes it muddy and wet. I was a bit nervous being out there in the wet element as my first time, the weather was fair. Jesse reassured me that I was doing okay even though I felt like I was driving like Miss Daisy. It was safe to say we arrived to the mountain top as scheduled. I did much better heading back. This is another must while vacationing in the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area!!!

First time using them. Bought tickets when we got to town for the following Monday with no issues. Directions given to the location were super clear. I was able to find a helmet with no problem. Safety video was breezy and funny. ATVs were in good condition. I chose the 1.5 hr tour to the peak and it was amazing. Our guide was great and took on a variety of terrain even crossing thru a river. The view at the top was breathtaking. The guide offered to snap a few pics. Price was super reasonable. Ill be going back.

Fun on the trail!

Loved the ride! Would highly recommend for both the experienced riders and newbies. Chandler was our guide and he was very patient with another rider who was not very confident at first. He made sure everyone was having fun. When you go to the office to make the reservation, make sure everyone in your party is with you. They will not start the process without everyone present to sign the waiver.

This was my families first time riding 4 wheelers so they were a bit nervous. But our tour guide was very attentive and friendly. The kids absolutely loved it so I'm sure we will be booking again whenever we come back. Another this that I liked about them is that they were one of the only places that didn't require a down deposit, that's was a major plus!

Resting point.

We booked the 1 1/2 hour ATV ride. It was AWESOME! We went though creeks, mud, trails all over the place. Our guide, Dakota, knew what he was doing. It was $108 and if the trail ride ended how of that it was well worth it. I will come back for sure.

I would rate this more stars if I could! Cons: You have to stop into the office in Pigeon Forge to make a reservation, and reservation time will likely be later in the day IF even the same day--so go reserve as soon as you get into town! Pros: Best experience, ever! We did the 1.5 hour experienced trail ride, and it was 1.5 hours of beautiful off-roading...lots of different terrains, and good climbs and declines! Our guide Bryson was so awesome at ensuring everyone had a good time! He even offered to take photos for people at the summit (which was one of the most beautiful views I've ever seen)! Bring your own sunglasses or protective eyewear if you don't want to wear the clear safety glasses they provide! I cannot rave about this experience enough. It's going to be our fondest memory of this entire trip, for sure!

Parking at the scenic lookout.

We had so much fun here. Mike was our tour guide, and he was so good with the inexperienced riders as well as still making it enjoyable for the more experienced ones. We paid $136 after tax for 2 people to ride individually on a 450 ATV. There's a mandatory safety brief in the beginning, but it only takes about 10 minutes. If you've ever been on a "risky" tour like zip lining or something similar, then you're probably fully expecting the safety video anyway. You're able to get comfortable with your ATV at a circular practice course, and then up (and down) the mountain you go. Most of the course is wide enough that you can choose to take a less dirty and more conservative route (like I did) or a more muddy and "fun" route (like my adrenaline husband). A little over halfway through, you stop at a nice scenic lookout where you can take photos and just take in the beautiful Mountain View. Overall, we had a wonderful time. Tips: 1. We did the family 1 hour tour. The 1.5 hour tour is supposedly more rugged. If you're an adrenaline junky, that might be a better option for you. 2. Don't be like us and forget cash. Bring cash to tip your tour guides because they really are fantastic. 3. If you'd rather wear your own sunglasses vs. their eye protection goggles, then make sure you bring your sunglasses with you.

They also advertise in all of the coupon books plastered all over for $5 off a single experience and $10 off a combined experience. So, I thought awesome! We get there yesterday, the girl behind the desk is not friendly AT ALL. Red flag one. Proceeds to tell us we cannot hold a monkey any longer because the "monkey handler" retired. Yet as I type this, this experience is STILL advertised all over their website, in person menu and flyers. Red flag two. We decided to go anyway because we had already drove out there and looked forward to it for a little under a year. We go to pay and we're then told you can't use the coupon. It's only good on about two things. Well, that should be specified on your coupon what two things it's good for. Not over 3/4 of your menu. Red flag three. Then it is advertised that you get free food cups and food to feed the animals so I figured that would be a decent trade off. Well, red flag four. Although that was true in essence, you get one little tear of lettuce leaf, 3 small squares of apple, and about 5 pieces of kibble (think dog food size kibble). You cannot feed the tortoise only the kangaroo and we were told they don't like kibble so feed it to the dog. The dog was adorable but to be honest, I didn't pay $20 to feed a dog. I can do that at home for free. So we got to feed the kangaroos an extremely small lettuce leaf and 3 of the tiniest chunks of apple. We were also given about a 2" piece of millet for the birds. And told if you drop it or they steal it then tough luck you will not receive another. We were given one little piece of kibble type thing for the monkey even though only two of us wanted to give him a treat, but we paid for five people. So anyways I felt like this was all together petty for what this experience advertises itself as. The last red flag came after we left. Both groups in our party realized we were charged $5 extra for paying with card (which is like 10%). We didn't do anything else on the farm that I can comment on, thank goodness. I will say, however, the gal who took us on the train was a nice gal and tried her best. And all of the animals were very sweet.

We rented an off-road vehicle from Offroad Gatlinburg yesterday expecting an actual off-road…read moreexperience. Based on their advertising, website, and what we were told when booking, we believed we'd be taking the vehicle onto mountain trails and participating in genuine off-roading. Unfortunately, that was not the case. When we arrived, the employee at the front desk immediately informed us that we needed proof of auto insurance and a credit card. While that's completely understandable, none of this was communicated to us beforehand, so we had to spend time digging through our phones and paperwork to find the information. When I explained that this requirement was not included in the information we received, he argued with me rather than simply acknowledging the oversight. Throughout the entire interaction, he acted as though we were inconveniencing him. The biggest disappointment came when we asked about the trails. We were told that we could not actually take the vehicle off-road and had to remain on public roads unless we paid extra for a guided tour. This was completely different from what we understood when booking. As locals, we drive these mountain roads regularly and can enjoy those views anytime in our own vehicle. The whole reason we rented an "off-road" vehicle was to experience off-roading. Once the employee learned that we weren't tourists, his attitude became even worse. He seemed annoyed that we were asking questions. The drive itself was beautiful because the Smoky Mountains are beautiful, but there was nothing about the experience that justified renting a specialty off-road vehicle. We could have seen the exact same sights from our personal car. To make matters worse, when we returned the vehicle and asked if there was anything else we needed to do before leaving, we were then told that we were responsible for refilling the gas tank. Again, this had never been mentioned beforehand. In fact, we were told when booking that gas was included in the rental cost. Overall, the vehicle was fine and the scenery was great, but the communication, professionalism, and customer service were extremely disappointing. If you're looking for a true off-road experience, make sure you fully understand what is and isn't included before booking. Based on our experience, I would recommend looking into other companies first.

Absolutely terrible. The wheel of the utv my family was in broke maybe 30 minutes into the drive…read more We were stranded for over an hour waiting for someone to at least pick up the car or take us back to our cars. Once we made our way back the lady at the desk was rude and did not understand why someone may want a refund after that situation. it was a terrible version of what that experience should have been with not only the UTV breaking but how it was handled by the staff. Not only was it one UTV that was stranded but since there was a large group going so there were six other people with us. The behavior of the staff about the breaking and the family staying together was absolutely insane and should have happened.

About an hour into the ride my son heard a pop so we pull over to a siding in the mountains to see if we could check where the noise came from. After about 1/2 hour we discovered the rear drivers axel nut sheared off anf the tire was coming off. After trying to contact Smokey Rental which took some time they told my son they will bring a different UTV. It too an hour for them to get to us. We had plans after this ride so my son was offered a full refund and we were offer nothing. We asked for a 1/2 refund and was refused because the owner said we should have left my son, daughter-in-law and 2 grandkids stranded on the mountain and continued our ride (not going to happen). Then we were offered an extra hour even after we explained we had other plans. So after being stranded for 1 and 1/2 hours on a 3 hour ride the non-caring owner trough in our face the contract for no early returns when we actually got back on time. The early return was because of the extra hour offered at the breakdown site. Not a good business practice, we will never recommend Smokey Mountain Rental with the experience and the way we were treated by the owner.
