This was by far the best choice when it comes to snowmobile rentals. I’ve used several other companies in Zakopane before, but nowhere have I experienced the same level of adrenaline and such great trails as here. I highly recommend RIDE SIDE to anyone looking for a real off-road snowmobile adventure. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 When it comes to snowmobiles in Zakopane, RIDE SIDE is the way to go!
Rated 5 out of 5
The best experience ever! We went on our first day with 7 friends, absolutely loved it, and gave Damian 5 stars. We came back again two days later, and it was probably even better when we went off-road. It’s better to ride solo, as it’s a little easier than riding two people on one snowmobile. Damian made the whole experience really enjoyable for us, took loads of photos and videos of us while we were riding, and made everything easy even though we had no previous experience. He organized the trip to suit everyone in the group, and the groups are small, which made a huge difference. This was definitely the highlight of our trip to Zakopane, and we’ll be coming back again next year!
