Shane_F, Jul 2025
Great experience! Was so much fun, I’m glad we did the 8am because any later would’ve been too hot in July. We had a great ride from our hotel and back from Mike who was very communicative and even gave us a little tour on the way to the ATVs. Our guide was Victor who was also great and very patient for someone who has never rode an ATV before. It was great! Highly recommend!
Response from Host, Jul 2025

We didn’t get a chance to experience this because the driver went to the other hotel but I updated it last week. He never gave a pick up time after he was the one in error going to the wrong location. He then claims he was here but we never saw him and he left. Tried calling back but he sent me to voicemail but was able to text. How ironic. Then u said just catch the bus to the location. Very rude!
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Hello Tayshaun. Sorry about the mix-up with your complimentary round-trip resort shuttle service. The driver did come to the right hotel after he was updated, but as you had left the pickup location to go get something to eat, of course, he couldn't find you. Kumar is very friendly and has never been described as rude before, perhaps his accent made it seem so but he's a nice guy. With other guests reliant on the shuttle, we cannot make them wait for you as you requested. I know you left 1 star because you missed out and didn't come ride, so we hope you will actually get to experience a ride with SunBuggy the next time you're in town. The actual ride is the FUN part (not the free shuttle), and we're known for being the best value and best experience in the business. Also, should you desire, we offer a private limo service add-on option if that is more to your liking on your next trip.
Deborah_B, Mar 2025
I had a great experience with this company many years ago. This time around, while the ATV ride itself was fun, I was very disappointed in the lack of upkeep with their vehicles and equipment.
The van that shuttled us from our hotel to the venue did not have working seatbelts for all seats and the third row seating actually dislodged during a turn, dumping the passenger into the side of the van. The paneling on the van walls was separated from the van’s metal structure, causing significant vibrations during the ride. I felt so unsafe in this vehicle that I decided to Uber back to the hotel.
During the ATV excursion, we ran into a hidden sand hole and my daughter’s ATV went sideways and she lurched forward. This is a risk when riding ATVs and our guide was attentive and helpful with the situation. My concern with what happened was watching the ATV seat come up off the ATV and lodge my daughter’s leg against the handles. Thankfully she wasn’t hurt but i certainly wonder when the last time these vehicles were maintained.
As their policy states, ride at your own risk.
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Hi Deborah,
Thank you for sharing your feedback on Viator, though we’re truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with SunBuggy in Las Vegas this time around, especially since you had a great experience with us years ago. We’re glad the ATV ride itself was fun and that our guide was attentive and helpful when your daughter encountered the hidden sand hole, but we deeply regret the safety concerns you faced.
We’re very sorry about the condition of the shuttle van—working seatbelts for all seats are non-negotiable, and the dislodged third-row seating, along with the loose paneling causing vibrations, is completely unacceptable. We understand why you felt unsafe and chose to Uber back to your hotel, and we’re taking this seriously to ensure our vehicles are thoroughly inspected and repaired immediately.
We’re also sorry to hear about the issue with the ATV seat coming loose during your daughter’s incident. While riding ATVs does come with inherent risks, as noted in our policy, equipment failure like this shouldn’t happen. Our vehicles are designed to handle the desert’s tough conditions, but it’s clear we need to step up our maintenance checks to prevent issues like this. We’re relieved your daughter wasn’t hurt, and we’ll use your feedback to improve our safety standards.
We’d love to welcome you back to the dunes to show you the improvements we’re making—your past positive experience means a lot to us, and we hope to regain your trust with a safer, more enjoyable visit next time. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Best regards,
Scott

The stated pick up time changed the morning of pickup and we had to be ready 40mins earlier with only a little over an hours notice. Then the ATV tour was cut in half when the guides Buggy kept grounded and breaking down. We just drove circles for 30mins while they tried to fix it and then straight back to the bus. The people were friendly enough but it seemed disorganised.
Response from Host, Feb 2025
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the change in pickup time and the shortened ATV tour due to the buggy malfunction. We understand that punctuality and the full experience are important, and we regret that we fell short of your expectations in this instance.
We are actively working to improve our communication and ensure that any changes to scheduled pickups are communicated well in advance. We also take your feedback about the buggy breakdown seriously and are reviewing our maintenance procedures to prevent similar issues in the future.
While we're glad you found our staff friendly, we apologize for any perceived disorganization. We are committed to providing a seamless and enjoyable experience for all our guests and will strive to do better in the future.
We hope you'll consider giving us another chance to show you the thrilling and well-organized SunBuggy adventure that so many of our guests have enjoyed.
Sincerely,
The SunBuggy Team

The staff member brandy was excellent! Our shuttle driver Michael was good too. Very talkative and funny which made things better.

Mike, our driver was great! He gave us a brief tour on our drive to and from the location. We also enjoyed our tour guide, IROC! Iroc was extremely helpful and patient with a first time guest like myself. Those two guys made our trip!!
Angela_G, Aug 2024
Booked this through Viator. Was told by Viator that my daughter (17yrs) could drive. Found out after we had already been picked up that she couldn't. Sunbuggy tried to fix this by "upgrading" us to a dune buggy. Half way into the ride, the steering went in the buggy. We were told it would be 15/20 mins for a replacement buggy to be brought out. By that time, I was just done! In my opinion, everything with this experience went wrong.
LaTaungi_E, Jul 2024
The owner Casey and his managerial staff practices unethical practices and behavior. Please be careful in making reservations through Viator, they are not consumer friendly. They are strictly for the company and main objective is clear not Customer Service based.
