Go Golan

The escarpment above Kinneret

Go Golan starts its published routes in Givat Yoav. The surrounding southern Golan provides a choice of elevated views over Kinneret, dirt tracks and descents towards water. The operator describes viewpoints, spring-fed pools and streams among its stops. Those features belong to different itineraries. When arranging a trip, specify whether you want lake views, a possible water stop or a more demanding drive so the proposed route matches your plans.

Choose the drive before arranging a departure

Driving a Ranger with a guide

The operator identifies its vehicles as Polaris Rangers and describes self-driving outings led by a guide. Drivers must show a valid driving licence. Ranger rental without a Go Golan guide is not offered. An introduction to operating the vehicle takes place before departure. Previous off-road experience is not required for the ordinary routes; the extreme itinerary is the exception. Choose a route that suits the least experienced driver in your party.

Children as passengers and children driving

Private outings and company days

Go Golan offers couples’ trips, family outings and guided departures for private groups. Its company-day options may combine the drive with ODT activities, workshops, meals or guided SUP on Kinneret through other providers. Agree those elements as part of a specific programme rather than assuming they accompany every Ranger outing. Confirm the vehicles assigned to your group and how drivers and passengers will be distributed before finalising arrangements.

Departure times and duration

Go Golan does not publish a regular weekly opening timetable. Arrange your departure directly. Time options in its enquiry form are request options, not verified opening hours or available places. The routes page gives about one hour for the short drive and two hours for the medium itinerary; the FAQ gives one hour and fifteen minutes and two hours and fifteen minutes. Ask for the duration of your chosen outing and whether paperwork and the driving introduction require additional time.

A drive that does not require a walking route

The operator’s FAQ says the trip does not involve walking and may suit someone who has difficulty walking. That statement does not establish wheelchair access to the vehicles or stops. Discuss boarding height, assistance and the option of staying in the vehicle before arranging a place. The published accessibility declaration chiefly describes the website. It should not be treated as confirmation of step-free access at the meeting point or along an outdoor route.

Frequently asked questions

• Do Ranger drivers need a licence? Yes. Drivers must show a valid driving licence. Ask separately about eligibility for the children’s electric-buggy programme.
• Can we hire a Ranger without a guide? No. The official FAQ says Ranger outings require a Go Golan guide.
• How old must child passengers be? The regular Ranger programme accepts passengers aged three and over. This is not the minimum age for a child to drive an electric buggy.
• Do we need off-road driving experience? The operator provides an introduction for ordinary itineraries. The approximately four-hour extreme route is for experienced off-road drivers.
• How long is an outing? There are short, medium and approximately four-hour routes. Published descriptions differ slightly on the short and medium durations, so confirm the timing of your chosen departure.
• Can we go as a private group? Yes. Go Golan offers private guided groups and couples’ outings. Arrange group size and seating directly.
• What are the opening hours? A regular weekly timetable is not published. Arrange a departure on 052-6499565 rather than treating the enquiry form’s time options as opening hours.
• Where do we meet? In Givat Yoav. Obtain the precise meeting point before setting out and confirm whether it is for the Ranger outing or the children’s buggy programme.
