I've gone on 2 trips this year - made new friends 🧡 & had a blast seeing all the beauty Michigan has to offer, off the beaten path. Keri & Paul go above & beyond to make these routes fun, safe, & inclusive- no matter the skill level. I learn so much by off roading with them & love getting to see Pure Michigan majesty all along the way- great people, good vibes, it's a must do experience!

Awesome people! I've been on many adventures with them and can't wait to go again!

I took my grandsons on the Shore to Shore Rustic adventure. We loved it. The boys had a great time seeing to back woods of Michigan. They want to do it again. Paul and Keri are great guides and hosts for the adventure. The boys and I can’t wait to go on another adventure. I hope to take my wife on a comfort adventure in the future.

We have done several shore to shore events and they an amazing time! I would do everyone of them if I had the time! Great fun for the family!

Keri and Paul were simply amazing! Totally professional. Super friendly and completely patient. The only reason I'm giving five stars is because I can give more. If you or anyone you know want to know about 4-wheeling in a class that is warm and welcoming, Keri and Paul are really the best choice.

I recently attended Women's Wheeling Weekend at Windrock, in Oliver Springs, TN. I can't say enough, Keri is an excellent leader by nature. Definitely a competent and knowledgeable off road driver, the tips and wisdom came in spurts, more like good conversation with a trail buddy. She and her team of trail guides are all excellent, good people and everyone was welcoming to the only Land Rover in the group. She knew the trails at Windrock and planned our drives really well with stops for taking in the view and picnic lunch by the creek. She has this business locked down - organized and FUN! Calling all Land Rover women - please don't hesitate to attend along with other makes of trucks and jeeps. Hope to see ya on the trail and OH yes! The dinners were awesome! Great job Paul and helpers. Black Rhino!

Having professional trail guides made a wonderful trip. These people really know what their doing. Thanks Paul and Keri for an exciting 4x4 adventure!

What a great time the Shore to Shore Comfort trip was. Great hosts, great participants, great weather and trails. Who could ask for more? I have never been disappointed while be on one of their adventures.

Just attended the Fall Shore to Shore Comfort with Paul & Keri and cannot say enough good things. The trails were beautiful and we got to experience areas we wouldn't otherwise see without fear of being stranded. They aren't just guiding us along, they are very knowledgeable and don't hesitate to answer all of our questions. And we have the safety of trying things knowing they are there to rescue us if needed. The trip was amazing and I am already looking forward to their next year calendar coming out so I can book with them again!!!

The Shore 2 Shore trip with Discover 4x4 Adventure was an awesome and unique way to see Michigan! The routes, scenery, and stops along the way were great, and Paul was a fantastic guide—knowledgeable, fun, and always made sure everyone had a great time. Can’t wait to book more adventures with them in the future!

We love our trips with Discover 4x4 Adventures!! Paul and Keri are highly knowledgeable, very organized, and awesome people! We took our first trip in Snow Way trip in 2021. We have done several trips a year since. I highly recommend the experience! You can’t go wrong with any of their trips. If you are new to off-roading then definitely check out their 101 class. You will learn a lot of valuable skills and the true (safe) way to do them.

Paul and Keri are outstanding at what they do. I began my off roading journey much later than I should have, and I really benefited from their classes. I am looking forward to joining on some of their trips. Highly recommend for anyone getting started, or if you need some advanced help.

Kerri and Paul go a great job teaching and explaining techniques that make sense for new and experienced off roaders. We had a great time exploring the U.P. with them. Very well scheduled trip and we met great friends along the way. Highly recommend taking a trip with them!

Best damn product!

Always hospitable and eager to please your experience

Discover 4x4 Adventures trips never disappoint. I've been on several of them and they are always well organized and incredibly fun! Keri & Paul are great hosts and are very knowledgeable about the trip locations and adventures.

1st Time SnowWay Dude!! Definitely a Blast, Trails were Beautiful. Had a Fun Time.

We have gone on the Coast to Coast adventure and Snow way dude. Both highly recommend and we will do it again. Update 2/18/25. Just did our third Snowwaydude and it was a fantastic time. Now for the Shore to Shore in the fall.

Keri and Paul are the best, they make sure everyone feels welcomed and confident on the trails! They put so much time in planning their trips to make sure that everyone has a great time. I've went to their Snow Way Dude trip and just got back this past weekend from the Up in Da UP trip. It was a beautiful trip on and off the trails.

Have you ever said to yourself, “I really WANT to take my vehicle off road but: I don’t know how / I don’t feel confident / I don’t know anyone else who does / I don’t know if I have the right equipment Fear not. Discover 4x4 will help you build confidence, learn your vehicle, and make sure you get home safe. You won’t find a more caring, patient, and amazing team. If you’re already an experienced offroader, Paul and Keri will help you stretch your limits safely and help get you out of anything you can’t get yourself out of! Whether you’re taking a class or joining for an adventure trip, you’ll have a blast with Discover 4x4.

Great people. Very knowledgeable about all things off road and very family oriented as well.

I can’t speak highly enough of this company and their classes. Keri and Paul are experienced, organized, and very patient instructors. I went in knowing some stuff about off roading and learned so many new things! The beginner class is very comprehensive and a great way to get into off roading if you’re new, and also to learn/grow even if you’ve been at it for a while. The attention to detail and care put into this class definitely make me want to check out their adventure trips. This company was founded on the love of a passion project and it shows.

Paul is a good man who loves his work. 4x4 Adventures is an extension of him. If you like having FUN … give it a try.

My wife and I just completed the Shore to Shore comfort trip and had an absolute blast. We are new to off-roading and Paul and Keri made this weekend so fun and easy we have already booked 2 more trips with them.

Absolutely stand up business. We loved our shore to shore trip we did with them so much we already booked another adventure with them. Highly recommend. They are very professional and patient. They guide you and make sure you are absolutely safe. I would recommend them to my family.

Discover 4x4 Adventures is the only group we go off roading with, Paul and Keri are great. Two of the best people and they offer the greatest time. We have been on 3 snow ways with them and a coast to coast. We are looking forward to a U.P. trip in the future.

We just got back from another awesome trip with Discover 4x4 up near Houghton Lake in Michigan. Paul and Keri put on a great event this year also and I would highly recommend going on one of their many adventures that they offer. Amazing couple who have turned their passion into a business. They offer something for everyone when it comes to the outdoors. Book a trip now with them. You won't be disappointed!

We attended The Snow Way Dude event in Houghton Lake this past weekend and had a great time! Thank you Paul and Keri Porter for this event! It was my first time trail riding with my new-ish Bronco, and I had a blast! I was in the easy group, and our guides Tom Maenle and Tom Ward were terrific – great communicators and very helpful/encouraging to this newbie. There was definitely a Jeep majority there, but they seemed to accept the few Broncos with only a little good-natured ribbing 😆. The banquet afterwards was fun- raffle drawings for off-road goodies and awards for different categories. I am happy to say I won the “Underdog to Champion” award, which goes to a beginner that shows promise and determination. This was a great way to get outdoors and see some beautiful snowy Michigan scenery & meet a very nice group of people. Definitely something to put on the calendar for next winter.

1 year and 2 months ago when I first met Keri Porter I had no idea how that first women’s wheeling weekend would impact my life so much. Then the second one a year later would impact me even more. The people who she surrounds herself with are all an inspiration to those around them. I hope one day I can be as much of an inspiration to others as she is /they are to me. She continues to inspire those around her regardless of where you are at in life. She is an amazing woman and if you have not gone on one of her adventures you are truly missing out. I don’t know if she realizes how much she has helped me grow mentally over the past year and for that I will be forever grateful.

Had such an amazing time at the women's wheeling weekend in Hot Springs, AK. 1st time ever doing this and they made me feel so comfortable. By the end, I was tackling every obstacles they put in front of me. Highly recommend!

Spent the weekend with an amazing group of ladies. Learned that I knew more than I thought, but still have so much more to learn. The way that these ladies encourage and empower each other is something that is truly amazing. Can't wait to attend another event. Thank you Keri and Paul for all of the work that you put into making this such a blessing for everyone that attended. Dee

Knowing that Keri and Paul are watching out for my wife while she attends the Women’s Weekend Ride makes me feel at ease. I know she is safe and that they will get her off trail in the unlikely chance she has a failure on her Jeep. These rides are great confidence builders for everyone! Looking forward to participating in the other co-ed and family orientated rides. Thanks for the care and friendship Keri and Paul.

Just finished up my second Women’s Wheeling Weekend with Discover 4x4(Keri+Paul). I attended my first one last year in Missouri and was super excited for the one that just happened in Arkansas. I have to tell you, I have been to over 50 guided trail events, and Discover 4x4 blows them out of the water. The attention to detail is next level. The food they provide their participants is amazing, something you can actually eat and wouldn’t mind feeding your family. The trails are structured to keep you safe, yet entertained, all the while pushing you and your vehicle(if you want) to the next level. And the lodging provided with your entry is comfortable, clean, and relaxing! Recovery is always provided if you get stuck or break something during the ride, because let’s face it, it happens when you’re putting your vehicle through the trails. I feel safe to attend these events without my husband, everyone is super respectful. Keri’s husband Paul is very active “behind the scenes” during the ladies event but never involved with us so the comfort level of some shy ladies remains steadfast. I can’t say enough good things about this event. The trails are pre run by their trail guides so it flows smoothly, and the nightly dinners and hang out sessions after really help the group feel like a group no matter what trail difficulty you ran that day. Looking forward to participating in future women’s rides as well as co-ed/family rides! Thanks for everything Keri+Paul!

Signed up for my first group event (Women’s wheeling weekend), what an awesome experience. Being new to off-roading/overlanding it was a tremendous help to have such amazing support and guidance through the trails. Keri and everyone who was working with her were phenomenal. I could not have asked for a better experience. I learned so much from all of these amazing women.

5 Stars for sure!! We met Paul and Keri during the Hocking Hills Podcast Jeep event last year. First and foremost, I would absolutely recommend their 101 off-road class before doing any kind of offloading!! They will help understand the mechanical and technical aspects of your vehicle and what it takes to Off-road safely. they went above and beyond to help my wife and I understand moderate trails with our jeep wrangler. They’ve given us the confidence and ability to do more and enjoy adventures together. We will be signing up for more adventures with them very soon. Thank you Paul and Keri.

I have done numerous trips with Discover 4x4. If you want to just learn about your off road vehicle and mild off roading, or more extreme off road, this is the place. Paul and Keri Porter are great host/ owners, they will ensure you have a great time, are safe, and always professional guides. I look forward to many more adventures and experiences!!

Keri and Paul are incredible. I have been on more trips with them than I can count and every single one has been an amazing adventure. I have learned everything I know from off-roading, recovery, mapping, and even how to work on my vehicle from these two. They’re patient, kind, and so encouraging (funny too). Our family has truly enjoyed being on the trails with them! Don’t hesitate, take the trip! I promise you will have a great time!

Joined up with these guys in Hocking Hills for an off-road adventure. They were awesome leaders, great communication on the walkies the whole time and they were fully prepared for the stucks that happened. Would definitely ride with them again!

Awesome experience, and highly recommended to join in on one or several of their adventures. They will help you along the way and are glad to explain things to help you out as much as you need. Get out there and go adventure with them!

Paul and Keri @discover4x4adventures put together some of the best trail ride adventures that Michigan has to offer! They are extremely knowledgable and welcoming to everyone regardless of their off-roading skill level/experience. My wife and I have enjoyed several trips and gained invaluable experience and driving confidence! We are looking forward to many of their upcoming events!

Great courses and trips. We have taken two courses with Discovery 4x4 and two trips. They are very knowledgeable and professional it is a great experience. We are looking forward to planning several more.

Excellence would be an understatement when it comes to Paul & Keri! Not only was it one of the best trips I've been on, their friendly knowledge was out of the park! I wouldn't hesitate to go on another trip with Discovery 4x4!

Paul and keri are the most amazing host and trail guides ! They teach you so much about your vehicle and how to gain the confidence to tackle some pretty crazy obstacles!

Keri and Paul from Discover 4x4 Adventures are top notch! I have attended their 101 and advanced training courses, 4 of their Women’s Wheeling weekends, Snow Way, and the Shore to Shore adventure and all were well organized, safety was of top concern, and their kindness and knowledge are apparent in everything they do. They cater to all skill levels, and offer many different options based on those skill levels. I highly recommend Discover 4x4 Adventures for you next off road adventure!

I had my first trip with John and Keri a few months back. I was hired as the photographer for the weekend ladies event in Windrock, TN. I had never worked with this couple or even known them personally so this was going to be a new adventure for me. I currently am a Professional Motorsports Photographer and work with many different teams, brands and media outlets to procure epic content for all forms of internet interaction. I felt a strong connection with both of the owners shortly after meeting them. Having been in the offroad industry for over 28 years, they were my people. Caring, welcoming, and knowledgeable. I spent the next 4 days working with the entire team as well as getting to know all of the wonderful ladies that signed up for this epic trip. The guides Keri and John chose to lead rides were compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. Not only did they know the terrain well, they also understood mechanics and were quick to solve mechanical failures. Even on trail and in an extremely safe manner. At no point did I ever feel the need to put my cert hat on and go into rescue mode. This was by far one of my most favorite work events I have ever attended. I was treated like family and welcomed with open arms. Keri is extremely kind and very patient, a great candidate to teach. John is an amazing cook and supplied us with lots of wonderfully cooked foods that were healthy and very fresh! Erica was a superstar with desserts and they even offered gluten free and vegan options. Overall, the weekend was a success! This trip created lifetime memories for all involved as well as forged many friendships that will last a lifetime. I cannot begin to tell you how much fun their excursions are. You are in good hands with Discover 4x4 Adventures!! Looking forward to July! Come join me in the fun!

I have had the privilege of learning how to off-road my jeep with the guidance and knowledge of Discover 4x4 Adventures during several of their events and adventures. I remember my first women's wheeling weekend trip with my brand new jeep. I was nervous, I was fearful. However, Keri and her team calmly instructed and demonstrated practical and safe ways to off-road. That first experience of off-roading included mud on my tires, some rough terrain and moments of "I can't do this!". I WAS HOOKED! 😍😍😍😍 Discover 4x4 Adventures has helped me become more confident and adventurous behind the wheel of my jeep. I love being on the trail, making life long friends, pushing my limits and gaining new skills. Thank you, thank you!

BEST TRIP EVER!!! EVEN BETTER THAN ADVERTISED!!! THEY CARE ABOUT ALL PARTICIPANTS!!! ABSOLUTE 5 STARS!!! Let me first start off by saying Discover 4X4 Adventures really knows what they are doing and work hard to continually educate participants and keep them safe. They cater to everyone from beginners to experienced off road drivers. I own a Jeep and live in Ohio and in order to protect my investment (my Jeep) I chose to attend the 101 and 102 training classes where I learned valuable skills and after the training I’ve been on several amazing trips, and each one has been a great time! These trips have included easy trails through the woods to more challenging rocky terrain in the mountains, and every time the owners of Discover 4x4 Adventures have been helpful with spotting and driving tips throughout the trip. With this combo of training and class time I’ve learned to read a map of the area/park, use basic map tools, navigate popular mapping apps, and be able to share my location with other participants. On top of everything, they are patient, gracious, and understanding of all participants regardless of off roading experience, and welcome all types of off-road vehicles. I JUST CAN’T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS COMPANY AND THE GREAT TIMES I’VE HAD ON THEIR TRIPS!!!!

We’ve been on a few of Paul and Keri’s trips so far and every trip we go on, we look more forward to the next one! Between the Women’s Wheeling Weekend and the Big Rig events, we’ve seen some of the most amazing trails Tennessee has to offer! Both Paul and Keri are some of the most knowledgeable people that we’ve met and they provide safe, well planned adventure trips for vehicles and drivers of all levels. If you’re considering going on one, I would highly highly recommend it!! It’s truly life changing and the friendships made will last a lifetime. See ya on the trails, Discover 4x4!🤘

Our family had a wonderful time going on an outdoor adventure with Discover 4x4! We took their off-road 101- course, attended the Michigan Shore to Shore and can’t wait for the UP camping event! Very thoughtful and considerate with all of the planning. Keri and Paul take the time to make sure each event is memorable for everyone!

Awsome people. Great adventures. Vary well organized. 10 out of 10!!!

I have now completed a few trips with Discover 4x4 Adventures and each one has been fantastic. Very well thought out and appropriate for all levels of 4x4 experience. You'll have a great time with them!

Took a consolidated 101 class with them at an event in Holly, MI. They were incredibly patient, answered all of our questions, took us through a lot of different obstacles safely. I would HIGHLY recommend them if your new to off roading! We liked them so much, we are taking their Shore to Shore trip in May.

Paul & Keri & team put on great off-road adventures & trail rides. And their classes are very helpful for beginners or ones looking expand off-road knowledge! Had so much fun exploring & hanging out with them at various off-road & jeep meets! Can't wait until next one! 😊

Awesome trail selection!! Awesome Guides!!!! And met some really awesome people from all over the place at each event!! Looking forward to many more events!!

For your best adventure discover 4x4 venture is the number one place to go. They look out for you in all your needs on their trips. They make life easy for you on your adventures which gives you more time to enjoy what's going on around you first class company they don't get no better than this

Great company. Planed a great trip. Had a ton of fun would do it again.

Had a blast last November 2022 at the Big Rig Round Up Event down in Jellico/Pioneer, TN... Can't wait to do this event again this year!

Great experience on the Snow Way Dude winter wheeling trip. I was new to the group who were welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful. Already planning future trips with Discover 4x4 Adventures.

We had our first trip with Paul and Keri this past weekend at their Snow Way Dude 2023 event. We had an absolute blast and are working on our schedule to go to a few more of their events. Highly professional, safety oriented and well organized. Thank you Discover 4x4 adventures for arranging such great events full of knowledgeable guides, instructors and participants. 5 stars won’t cover the great memories and fun.

Such an awesome company to take an adventure with. You are in great hands and I highly recommend attending one or more of their trips or classes. Will make you feel like family.

So fun! The shore to shore trip was awesome. It is a very organized trip. We had such a great time getting to know people who love 4×4.

Incredibly well-organized, thoughtful, and FUN. After taking their 101 course last May, we did the Michigan Shore-to-Shore trip with the whole family and everyone had a blast. Met great people, and were in awe of how beautiful the state was in the fall from this perspective. We can't wait to do another trip with them again. Highly recommended.

Keri and Paul have created something great with Discover 4x4 Adventures! I’ve been on two trips and have attended an off road training class and was blown away with their knowledge, kindness and compassion. My skills and confidence off road has exploded thanks to them. Not to mention, the great community they have created, which has brought me many new friends! 💜

Discover 4x4 Adventures puts on exceptional off road trips for all levels of experience. From first time leaving the pavement to technical and challenging trips. The variety and fun trails for groups to go on. They also believe strongly in treading lightly ( not tearing up the trails and taking care of the resources that we have). The Shore 2 Shore trip in Michigan is an exceptional weekend trip for those who like to camp or they have a "Comfort Trip" too. I highly recommend joining them on one of the adventures to learn a lot, make new friends and have fun in the outdoors on four wheels ( most of the time).

Bought my Wrangler in May and took their 101 class less than a month later. So much helpful information, very personable and friendly!! Would highly recommend!!! Can’t wait to go on a weekend trip!
