UTVs in the desert

5.00Our guide was JB and he was great. We had signed up for the ATV tour and when we got there we were warned that it would be physically challenging as it was a rough course. It was early and cold and we weren’t up for it so they offered to switch us to a UTV (more like a dune buggy) for no difference in price. We were glad we did. That course is no joke! We had a blast and everyone got a chance to drive. JB even extended our tour when we had to pull over and wait for 35 jeeps to pass and were delayed. Our whole family loved this experience and were glad we chose the UTV over the ATV. Not only is it not punishing on the body, we got a longer, farther ride.

Fun Exploring the Sonoran Desert

5.00Fun and exhilarating UTV ride through the Sonoran Desert. Our guide, German, was amazing! He kept us safe, made several stops to teach us about the desert’s treasures. We even showed us what plants we could eat and got to sample some if we ever got lost or stuck in the desert. The vehicles were comfortable and we had a blast bouncing bumping on our ride!
Great adventure in the desert!

5.00From Start to finish so much fun and well organized! Very accommodating. Last minute change was no problem. They let us stop and take pictures and took pictures for us. Someone went rogue and they weren’t upset and handled in a friendly manner. Loved it!
