RECREATIONAL 4WD TRAINING

Your passport to responsible fun & freedom in the bush!

Ok, so you have a 4WD vehicle, but do you know how to get the most from it? Do you feel confident about taking it off-road? Do you know how to get out of a tricky situation? Are you planning a big trip and just want to feel a bit more confident? Then our fun, one-day, short and sweet training course is for you!

Through a partnership with nationally accredited trainers Getabout 4WD Adventures in NSW (RTO No. 90474) we are proud to offer a special one-day, recreational 4WD training course for WA clients (see below for information about accredited courses).

Recreational and accredited courses are run by highly experienced, qualified trainers, including Global Gypsies Director and former Tour Guide of the Year, Jeremy Perks, and several Senior Trainers. All our trainers hold a Certificate IV in Workplace Training & Assessment.

Our personalised 4WD courses are not just for heavy-duty 4WD vehicles, they are ideal for soft-roaders or all-wheel drive vehicles as well. Whether you've got a Land Cruiser, Patrol, Forester, Rav 4 or XTrail, if you'd like to improve your 4WD skills here's the perfect way to do it! And ladies, we are fluent in "Girlspeak", so get out there and have a go!

This excellent course will teach you how to handle your vehicle, show you how to cope with tricky situations and help build your confidence behind the wheel.
