You won’t regret this!
Just book it! The captain, Mike P and Earl were phenomenal!!!! I would totally recommend this experience to anyone, and how many times can you say I flew in the largest hot air balloon in the USA! Like omg, the breakfast and champagne was great as well as the drive there. They were kind and SO attentive! Worth every penny!

Great Tour!!!
Naala was nothing short of amazing! Her knowledge of the regions we’ve travel to were top tier. She made sure we were comfortable and made the long ride enjoyable. She was even kind enough to stop at an additional popular spot for us to take pictures. I highly recommend this tour.

Best tour I’ve ever been on
I’ve done a lot of tours and this was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Zane made the entire tour unforgettable from start to finish. The views were incredible, but honestly his energy, knowledge, and personality made it next level. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and wants everyone to have an amazing time. The views were incredible and the education of Arizona was amazing. I was blown away the entire trip. If you’re thinking about booking this tour, do it!!. Arizona would not have hit the same without him.

Amazing!!
This was such a beautiful experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, the kayaking itself was phenomenal! It was just as the staff told us it would be. It was a minimally challenging river. We are all inexperienced with kayaking. We were sent instructions, complete with safety waivers and an instructional safety video. I felt confident after watching it that I and my husband and friends would be able to have a great day. We only saw 2 of the horses, but that was still an amazing sight! The end of the float was a bit difficult to traverse, but the staff were helpful with directions as we came in. The ride in the van from the end was about 10 minutes. The whole area is so beautiful and there looks to be plenty to do. The only thing that I could say was remotely negative were the people fishing on the bank who were not happy to see us, as we were probably scaring off the fish. It had no bearing on our experience though. There is a great little gift shop complete with small essentials that are easily forgotten (i.e. sunblock, chapstick, waterproof phone bags, hats, etc.) My husband and I will be back in the future and will be bringing more out of town family and friends.

Fabulous experience! Doug is a kind, encouraging companion on what is a grade 1 scramble.
I did the Cholla trail. It is a Grade 1 scramble- limited exposure, no ropes or even poles needed. Sandstone is grippy and makes the scramble very doable.
What made this possible for me to do solo, was my guide Doug!
Doug was patient and very supportive. His “You got this!” got through some spicy bits laughing and with a smile on my face.
He had water which I definitely needed after finishing the contents of my 1l water bottle at the summit.
The descent is much easier than the climb up.
I had a great time! Thanks Doug- for the encouragement and the numerous photos!

Don’t hesitate
We had an amazing experience on the desert e-bike tour! Jesse was fantastic very knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire ride enjoyable. The tour was the perfect length, giving us plenty of time to take in the scenery while learning along the way. We chose the 8 AM time slot, which I highly recommend, especially during the summer months. Overall, a great experience and definitely worth booking

This was a fun and informative trip. Most all of the travelers on our trip would have preferred more time at Tortilla Flats and Goldfield Ghost Town and less at the Elvis Chapel and Museum area. We barely had time to get some food and no time to explore either place. The Dolly Steamboat was a fun and relaxing experience and the Captain was quite entertaining. Our driver gave us lots on historical facts and flora and fauna information.

Fantastic Experience!
Absolutely perfect sunset hike! Our group of six had a fantastic time with Jay! He was very prepared with headlights, extra water, backpacks and all the possibly needed survival gear plus snacks for the summit! We felt safe with him and he was extremely knowledgeable. The hike was just right in length and difficulty. Would highly highly recommend this tour.

Our guide did an outstanding job throughout the entire tour. He was extremely informative and shared so much interesting history about each location we visited. We stopped at several unique and beautiful spots around the canyon that we probably never would have discovered on our own. At each stop, he explained the history of the area, what we were looking at geologically, and some of the stories connected to those viewpoints.
What really stood out was the guide’s energy and attitude. He was fun, positive, and clearly passionate about what he does. His enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable and kept everyone engaged throughout the day.
We also had time to browse for souvenirs and take in the scenery without feeling rushed. Standing at the edge of the canyon and taking in the massive scale and beauty of it all was absolutely breathtaking. Pictures simply can’t capture how incredible it feels to see it in person. 📸
Overall, it was an incredibly memorable experience. The guide’s knowledge, positive energy, and ability to keep the tour engaging made the day even better. My wife and I left with a much deeper appreciation for the beauty and history of the Grand Canyon National Park, and we would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. It’s something we’ll never forget!

Arrive to the center and they take you on a van ride to where you will take off. Very fun. 14 mph but felt slower than an elevator. Kyle, my pilot, was awesome. Informative and I can appreciate him keeping us in the loop the whole time. Champagne at the end was just the cherry on top. He was awesome. Ground crew were awesome. Didn’t have to wait for them. Snacks at the end! Thanks Kyle for an awesome trip in the basket.

Excellent day trip
Sam was really good as a guide and driver. Very informative and friendly. The tour was in general very intereating and well organised, the van was comfortable. The pick up and drop off could have been better arranged from the company as it took an hour to pick up everyone and an hour to drop off, and for me at least I had to travel another 15 minutes by uber or 40 min by tram to get to the meeting point as opposed to others who were picked up from their hotel. I think it would have been better if we were all told to meet up at one place and then drive off from there, therefore not having to start off the tour too early for some and driving me around the whole of Phoenix, Scodsdale and Tempe. Other than that all was great.

Dolly steamboat and Apache Junction tour
Make sure to wear clothes that match the weather and comfy footwear because there is exploring to do outside the vehicle but so worth it. Also if you get Cynthia she is amazing and knowledgeable about anything Az. She even took time to help us find something else to do in Mesa after the tour. Above and beyond what was expected. Awesome person!
