Great overall experience

We had such a great time during our UTV tour. Our guides Alex and Caden were welcoming and made the experience even more memorable. The check in process was smooth and our tour lasted about 90 minutes. I would definitely recommend and prepare to get dusty!

Let’s GO!!!!!

One of the funniest things we did on our trip and we have done this before. Bryan is a great guide so knowledgeable and enthusiastic on each trip! We brought our daughters back so they could do it too. Didn’t disappoint such a good time even at 116 degrees!

This was a last minute decision because of another excursion but we are so glad we did it. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Arizona this time. Our guide Lorenzo was well knowledgeable of everything we asked and would recommend the Ruins tour because of how much you see. Well worth it.

Experience of a lifetime

This was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. Our tour guide Chris was nothing short of amazing. Luckily enough, we were the only ones to go out that morning so it made the experience that much more incredible. Chris really personalized the experience for us and made this a tour to remember! Highly recommend this experience and ask for Chris.

Heart pounding fun!

Great experience. The staff was friendly and provided us with lots of water. Even on a hot summer day they made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The UTVs were lots of fun. It was scary, fun, and heart pounding. A do not miss adventure.
