Great experience for a Mother Daughter trip very manageable for a senior. Gorgeous views of Arizona we would of never found on our own as first time visitors
It was a pleasure meeting you both. I'm glad you enjoyed your day. I hope you had fun on your journey to the north. Come visit again. David
A breathtaking journey. A very diverse experience of views and vegetation. One of the most beautiful excursions I’ve been on. David was very professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend.
Thank you, Theresa. I hope to share more with you in the future.
Absolutely stunning tour of the Apache Trail and Superstition Mountains. Breathtaking views and David, our guide, was full of great information. The Apache Trail is paved for about 1/2 the way and then turns to a (well-maintained) gravel/dirt road. We really got out into the wilds and it was just breathtaking views. David was really personable and very professional. Can't recommend enough.
Thank you so much. It was a beautiful day. It was a pleasure meeting you all. David

Thank you so much!
Guide was nice, but felt rushed at times. Also, expecting more from tour given high price. Overall average experience.
I am sorry you felt rushed. The weather was not very accommodating. I wish we could have spent some time enjoying the outdoors.
This was our second tour with David and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We visited Goldfield, a ghost town, and stopped for an excellent lunch at Tortilla Flat, then continued our drive through beautiful desert scenery. David has such a pleasant demeanor and is knowledgeable about the area- the plants, animals, and history.
