Had a great time. The trail is bumpy but incredible drive. Incredible views and so many different kinds of cacti. Landon, our guide was great, informative at our stops and very helpful along the way. Entire staff very friendly and welcoming.
Had a great time with Chris as our guide. He gave us some good history lessons on the mountains trees and the Cactus.
Absolutely amazing experience! We rode with Matt as our guide and he was awesome. It was just my son and I for the 7:00 tour and he was very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and caring about making sure we had the best experience. It truly was God’s country and would do the 7 AM tour again. Thank you again for a memorable experience.
Such an amazing experience. Our tour guide was great as well super friendly and they definitely know what they’re doing! We loved every second of it.
If you are a thrill seeker and not afraid of dying by falling off a cliff, then this is the trip for you!!!
Guides were great. Friendly staff and very organized!! Those who seek thrills will love this!
I did not realize how dangerous it was from some of the reviews, so I want anyone to know that this is not for anyone who doesn't like heights or off roading. I thought I was booking a desert side by side ride, but boy was I wrong!
Books this adventure with my family everything went great utv were awesome. Our tour guy was funny and very informative about the Sonora desert.Would definitely recommend. I will definitely be booking again in the future
Great experience! You’re gonna be dusty by the end! Staff was friendly & knowledgeable! Saw a few animals - guide was pretty knowledgeable about the terrain.
The guides are amazing. Be ready for a bumpy exciting adventure. This was my first time and I was thrilled. The heights and curves had me on the edge of the seat.
Great experience! It was hot but they kept us hydrated the whole time! JB did an awesome job! The tour was fun and the facts he gave were definitely interesting
Amazing UTV excursion with breathtaking views and a fun, bumpy ride that’s absolutely worth it! Our guide Austin made the experience even better friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone was safe while still keeping it exciting. Highly recommend!
My mum and I did the centipede UTV guided tour last week and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. All the guys that work there were super friendly and chatty. Lorenzo, who took our tour group was really nice and super informative. He pointed out a lot of interesting landscapes, rocks, cactus and even a mountain lion track which was super cool!! He was really approachable and kept checking on the group making sure everyone was ok. Would 100% recommend!!
Great experience! Landon was our guide and he was amazing and super knowledgeable. I would definitely book with this company when I’m back!
great experience one ill never forget definitely enjoyed myself me and my wife came down for the first time and really had fun
This tour is a great! My family and I chose the UTV option. It's very dusty so prepare to get dirty! Lots of steep areas on the trail so make sure you or your driver are comfortable going up & down steep hills. Shoutout to Brennen! He is an excellent tour guide and very knowledgeable about the area and terrain!
If you’re scared of heights or going back down steep hills, don’t go. This is beginner daredevil approved. I suggest a utv if you’ve never been on an ATV. We had so much fun!
You are going to get dirty. Would do it again. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Bj was a great guide.
Great choice for an adrenaline rush with anyone. Joe was great, my girlfriend and I had lots of fun!
I recommend mayton is the best trust me you won’t be disappointed he’s full of life and positivity and he’s going to guild you with safety
Amazing ride on the guided UTV!! Worth the time and money. Mayton was an amazing guide. Easy to get to.
Our guide, Joe, was very experienced, knowledgeable and fun. The course was challenging and exhilarating without being too hard. This was our first time on the UTV and we had a blast.
This was an absolute blast! The company was a top notch group of guides. We used the UTV and it was great. Comfortable and powerful enough to get through the toughest areas.
Guided Centipede UTV tour through the Sonoran Desert. It was absolutely awesome. Great guide, terrain, and environment.
UtV guided tour is well organized, professional guides help you in case you struggle with the UTV. The tour itself ia woulderfu, nice landscape - highly recommended
This was so super fun, Matt was our Guide and he was so knowledgeable and helpful! Would absolutely 10/10 recommend and want to go again!
We had so much fun doing the guided UTV tour! Perfect activity for our trip to Arizona. Was even more fun than we anticipated. Austin was an awesome tour guide. The best experience!
We had a great time on the side by side guided tour. The views were incredible! You will get dusty so wear appropriate clothing (they give you facemask and goggles). Be mindful of securing an uber/lyft prior. Not a lot of drivers in that area. Austin was our guide and was amazing.
Bryan was an amazing guide! The ride includes taking the ATV or UTV on steep terrain at times and the tour was overall totally worth it.
It was a dusty and hot fabulous time! Guide was great. Views were great. Just an all around great time!
This experience was great. It was family friendly, on time, and the guide was attentive to everyone.
Definitely a great experience with my kids fun great weather. Great grid tour. I am a repeat customer coming back.
