Great way to take a break from the business of Vegas and spend a day in the desert. Phil was a fantastic tour guide and showed our group wonderful sites and provided interesting info for all things Valley of Fire and Vegas. Comfortable transport, solid boxed lunch and manageable hikes with views that are other worldly. Book it!

This was a fun tour. Our guide Blanca was wonderful. She was on time and kept us moving, but stopped if we asked, or wanted a little bit more time in one spot. The Valley of Fire is beautiful. The topography is stunning. I highly recommend this tour.

It was a relaxing escape from the busy strip. Our tour guide Troy was fantastic. He mentioned some history of the area during our bus ride to Vally of Fire which was very informative. The scenery in the valley was breathtaking. An absolute must see.

Great tour but vehicle maintenance needed.

KAREN_M, Mar 2026
Tour guide,Troy, and the trip were very good. However due to apparently a maintenance issue we had no air conditioning in the vehicle for the last four hours of the tour and it was 90 degrees when we were coming back. I ended up with a migraine from the heat.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that Troy provided a great experience. However, we sincerely apologize for the discomfort caused by the air conditioning issue during the final leg of the trip. We understand how unpleasant that must have been, especially in 90-degree weather, and we regret that it led to a migraine. We would like to make things right. Please contact us at your earliest convenience so we can discuss a suitable resolution. You can reach us by phone at +1 646 392 4073 or by email at qc@uvbookings.com. We look forward to hearing from you and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Natural playground

Belinda_C, Mar 2026
A fantastic half day trip to the out of this world rock formations just 45 min out of Vegas. My 10 yr old son LOVED being able to climb on rocks to his hearts content. Anthony was such a great tour guide. Climbing himself to show you the way to the greatest viewing points. He also had the van with the AC running to keep everyone cool between stops plus ice cold water. A really great day.

Only 1 hr drive from Las Vegas

linda_c, Mar 2026
We really enjoyed our trip to the Valley of Fire. Pick up was right on time, guide Jesse A was very knowledgeable and a safe driver. Lunch was a sandwich, crisps, an Orange and carton of drink which was fine. He gave us the choice of different walks some of our group decided to do the Wave and others Mouse Tail Tank Walk. He dropped one group then took the others to the start of there walk so everyone one was happy. We stopped at various points to take photos. It’s only an hour drive from Las Vegas so we didn’t spend hours in the van.

This trip to Valley of...

Shen_Z, Mar 2026
This trip to Valley of Fire was a great experience in general. The scenery is absolutely stunning, with unique red rock formations and beautiful desert landscapes. We had enough time at each stop to walk around, take photos, and really enjoy the views without feeling rushed. Our tour guide, Paul, might have seemed a little disorganized at times, but he is genuinely a very kind and friendly person who made the trip enjoyable. He made sure everyone was comfortable and gave us plenty of time to explore each stop. If you enjoy dramatic desert scenery and want a relaxed pace to take it all in, this tour is definitely worth doing.

Disappointing non-guided tour

James_M, Mar 2026
The State Park was wonderful but our guide was no more than a driver and gave zero commentary. Had no idea about the park, it's composition or it's history. Very disappointing as Viator specifically stated this was a guided tour. I stead we just went off by ourselves and when we had connection used Chatgpt to find out the details we should have received. Got the impression that the driver's talents were not focussed on English speaking groups.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beauty of the State Park, but we are truly sorry to learn that the tour did not meet your expectations, particularly in terms of the guiding experience.

However, we were unable to locate your booking based on the information provided in your message.

beautiful nature, fun easy clean tour

Jaime_H, Mar 2026
Our family of five including three kids had a wonderful experience on this valley of fire day tour. it was a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas clear pick up instructions, including a pin drop on where to meet were provided. The tour bus was on time, the ride was clean and comfortable. Our tour guide Marco was very friendly, helpful, and informative. He also helped take photos throughout the trip. The tour itself was amazing, it stopped at multiple places throughout the state park and gave us time to explore on our own and even do an hour long hike in one area. It was such a beautiful landscape. The tour provided a sandwich, lunch with juice, juice, and fruit, and also cold bottled water throughout the day. Overall, I would highly recommend!

We had the most amazing time at the Valley of Fire with Jesse A! He was a fantastic tour guide - super knowledable, friendly and especially helpful in taking photos for everyone on the tour! He even did some unplanned stops so we could see the mountain goats/sheep! We had a great time with him and would highly recommend this tour as it is well worth it!
