“a spectular day out”

Monster Truck Safari

This monster truck tour was awsome,

Our guide for the trip was a nice guy who we called Arnie.

Although it poured with rain he made every part of the day a pleasure.

The food was great and the beer was flowing freely (and never ran out).

Brilliant day for anyone thinking of doing it.

Don't forget to take some presents and sweets for all the children

We did this fantastic trip on a Friday that was fairly sunny and a bit breezy. Marcelo was our tour guide and he was a great fountain of information. Unfortunately due to all of the rain we weren't able to do the river crossing, but the experience did not disappoint. There was enough rum and cerveza's passed around to keep everyone smiling and water and soft drinks for non-drinkers and kids. We stopped at a family farm, a couple of schools, a neat ranch for lunch, a Monster Truck sponsored shop for snacks and shopping if people desired and then back to the resort. Our Monster Truck actually broke down, but within 10 minutes we had another one pick us up and get us to where we were going. Didn't take anything away from the trip. There are a lot of kids along the way that are expecting you to throw them something, but as there are a couple of trucks that generally travel together, throwing candy, etc is discouraged because they worry about the kids running out in front of a truck. There are places that the truck stops and you can give out candy/money/school supplies then. All in all, this was a fantastic day!!!

We took this excursion on recommendation from other reviewers. It was well worth it and more. It was AWESOME!!

It was a long drive out of the city but it was awesome, fun, humbling, eye opening and educational at the same time. We had a great guide and a great weather so that helped.

The tour stops at a school, rural home, cheese factory, river raft ride and a gift shop.

Donations are accepted at the school. We made up 4 packs with about 5 items in each. Books, paper, pencils, stickers, instruments, etc. It was very nice. Along the route the kids will come out and hope for you to throw something out for them. The guides recommend no candy as it is not good for them. They are not used to it. Dollar store toy items or useful items would be better.

Happy hour is every 20 minutes or so. Ever flowing beer, rum and coke, soft drinks and water. It's not a big booze fest party truck but a fun adventure for everyone young and old, families and couples. We loved the rum and coke so much. Lots of rum added to a bottle of Pepsi, MMMM, good.

We would highly recomend this trip to everyone. We will remember it for the rest of our lives and take another in a different location it was that good.

London, Ontario.
