We had been looking at renting a dune buggy in Pismo Beach but were wary because of the amount of traffic out there as well as number of accidents. We decided to go with Pacific Adventure Tours because of their professional drivers. We would never had as much fun if we’d gone on our own because we don’t know the dunes, or have the experience navigating the dunes or the potential traffic/dangers out there. I was a little concerned the jostling would trigger my vertigo, so I sat in the middle to be safe. I didn’t have any issues at all, other than I wanted to alter the plans for the rest of our trip so we could go again the next day!!! We could not have had a better time - having a wild ride yet feeling safe with Lutzy and his 18 yrs experience out there!! My face hurt from laughing for an hour. Do not hesitate, book these guys! Heck plan a trip around it!! So so so much fun!!!…

Crazy Amazing Fun!!!!! I had my doubts about individual ATV rentals for our family so I reached out last minute. They responded promptly and answered my questions about car seats (we have a 6 and 8 year old but did not need them). So we got set up for a same-day 1 hr tour with clear pricing ($52 per person paid if paid in cash) and pick up instructions. Our driver Lutzy was the best! He was on time for pickup and got us strapped in. He talked us thru as we drove to the dunes. Once there he started off easy and increased the off roading to a super-fun “hold on!” level of driving. He never got uncomfortably wild, yet he still managed to give huge thrills in the bowls and show us so much of the dunes. I could never have gotten this experience driving my own atv or much less with young kids driving atv’s. We got photo opps too. We still laugh at the vids we shot. SO WORTH IT!! THANKS LUTZY!…

This is an amazing alternative to renting individual atvs. My husband and I we weary of renting, especially being first timers to the dunes and all the hidden costs with potential damages. I also felt unsure of my ability to maneuver through the dunes and have a less than fun time getting stuck as I was reading lots of. Riding in a humvee with a professional behind the wheel eased our minds. It was completely worth the cost. We felt safe and had such a great time! It definitely felt like an hour long Indiana Jones ride, just as I read! Better to ride in the front if you get motion sickness like I do. I did well up there, while my husband (the adrenaline junkie) enjoyed the back seat. Would highly recommend this!!!…

I've never imagined riding a Humvey could be so exciting. I think it had lot to do with riding on sand dunes at Pismo Beach. If you haven't tried it, you don't know what you're missing. It was little bit scary at first. I though we would flip over but expert driving by our guide, it was exciting and safe...…

Our talented driver took us on a ride that can only be described as a rollercoaster ride on the dunes. Our Hummer did everything but go upside down! Two of us were more uncomfortable with the ride so he would change course to give us a break before taking the wild ride. The length of time was perfect and they were very professional. GREAT experience! We are still talking about it 6 months later!!…
