Max was very attentive to mom and I. We stopped and took pictures as we went along the tour. Lunch was very good.

We had fun

Jacqueline_F, Mar 2026
I would like to say that our excursion with Max was very fun and quite informative regarding several historic facts and he made the atmosphere quite enjoyable. He displays very gentleman-like qualities for the men and women participating on his tour and ensures the safety of each passenger that boards and exits the vehicle. Very friendly people related to people that make you feel welcomed. I would definitely go on another tour with Max and more people should be as friendly as him

James_T, Mar 2026
The drive is beautiful. Max, the driver stands great driver and very kind. We enjoyed the lunch at the Inn.

You can call this a private tour!

Christiaan_M, Feb 2026
This was a great way to spend morning. Not a too early pickup at 7:15 and so much time to enjoy Mt Charleston in the snow. Max brought sleds and I had the time of my life like I was a little kid again 😁 Besides that I enjoyed the scenery a lot. Max, our guide was super friendly. And we were only with three in the group. That was almost a private tour for the price of a regular one. Would recommend this one if you want to escape Vegas and see the snow in the mountains

Fun in the show.

Our tour guide, Max was excellent. He explained the sites and its activities. He was very knowledgeable of the area and its amenities.

The tour was amazing! Max, our guide, was so friendly and attentive. Our son loved the sleds Max brought and all the photos he took. Would highly recommend.

Bad experience

JULIAN_R, Jan 2026
For us it was the most unfortunate experience we've ever had as a family. We could have had a serious accident. The operator is not prepared to drive in winter weather conditions. We couldn't reach Mount Charleston.

Rodrigo_L, Dec 2025
The activity worths its value, amazing places and views, it's exactly what we were expecting for. Max helped us to enjoy the tour by giving useful tips every time.

Great getaway!

Clarissa_C, Nov 2025
It was a ggreat quick getaway. Our tour guide Daniel was really nice and accomodating. We thought it was a private tour but we went with 2 other Familes but it was fine. Everyone was friendly. Reason I am taking off one star is because we weren’t dropped off at our original point (which was advertised) which was Treasure Island- they said because of the F1 closure but it would have been nice instead of us taking a Lyft and paying additional $20 for a 3min ride to Treasure Island.

A Welcome Break from the Vegas Strip!

Vincent_G, Feb 2025
Mount Charleston is absolutely beautiful and a relaxing time for anyone looking to commune with nature and get away from the fast pace of the strip. Our tour guide Robert, was knowledgeable and extremely personable and made the trip that much better. We enjoyed a delightful breakfast at The Retreat for a perfect ending! However, I don’t know if I would recommend this tour if there was no snow on the mountain …

Our whole family enjoyed...

Max, the travel guide was great. The pmaces we visited were beautiful. Only thing that was not so great was the food at the Retreat's restaurant.

Amazing

Nicola_P, Dec 2024
Dress warm especially if it’s the winter, but nothing different because the entire trip was beyond amazing . Thanks Robert for being so awesome, I would do it again over and over. Nicola

Absolutely beautiful

Rachel_S, Dec 2024
Love the area. . We took a lot of beautiful pictures that can be used as post cards. This is the place where we come every year to celebrate Christmas. I would recommend this area to anyone. I promise you will build memories unforgettable. The price for the tour is reasonable and the tour guide is so friendly.

A holiday getaway

Fabulous tour of the Spring Mountains

Abigail_T, Apr 2024
Thank you very much to Max for being a wonderful tour guide. This was part of my 40th birthday celebrations and he made the day very enjoyable by being a knowledgeable and caring guide. Sledding was great fun to start the morning off, and we absolutely loved Lee Canyon and the Retreat at Mount Charleston. From start to finish, we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Thank you again! Keith & Abi

Colder than cold

Driver was great. He offered to text me a picture. I never got it. Snow was so hard to walk in. I am a senior & I would sink 2 feet each step. I had to bring the sled up to the top of the hill. I slipped and fell. My hands felt like they had frost bite. Mittens should be sold on the bus.

Drive in snow.

coy, Feb 2024
Driver had issues with the Van, started snowing and he was not prepared, got stuck when he went off side of road. The van windshield wipers need to be replaced and defroster did not work, driver had to constantly wipe windshield off while driving, felt very unsafe.

Max is the best!

Sharlett_E, Dec 2023
Max was an amazing tour guide. He even takes the time to stop at different locations and explain the history of the area. Highly recommended.

Excellent

Visit to the Grand Mountain in Las Vegas

Ramiro_N, Jan 2026
Making the reservation was very easy, communication from the start was excellent and the time at the pick up point was without any delay. And then the meeting with our Guide Max was a pleasant experience, very cordial, very helpful, with a lot of openness to collaborate, to explain, to give more than enough time to enjoy the different places and have good memories with photographs. We congratulate Max for his service, he is a highly recommended person and for future tourists it would be fortunate to have his service.

Bonita experiencia

ADRIANJOEL_S, Jan 2025
Muy cercano el tour a las Vegas así que es muy recomendable, el guía muy bien, solo que en el punto de más nieve que es donde se puede esquiar si no contratas el servicio prácticamente no te dejan ni estar en la nieve, de hecho si ese es el motivo de visita el esquiar, entonces no es conveniente este tour ya que es más de conocer diferentes lugares de la montaña, por cierto decía que incluía unos bocadillos pero solo incluía el agua, pero para conocer la montaña muy bien con paisajes increíbles
