This trip took us up into the canyon with gorgeous views and lots of interesting facts about Sedona. I highly recommend it. Carmine was a fabulous guide!

Connect to a former stagecoach route that was the only road between Sedona and Flagstaff until 1914. Climb steadily up the canyons to reach stunning sites such as Snoopy Rock, Teacup Rock, Coffee Pot Rock, and Damnfino Canyon. Admire views of Oak Creek Canyon as you wind your way to the Mogollon Rim, which marks the southern edge of the Colorado Plateau in Arizona.

As you turn back toward town, marvel at views of Carousel Rock and the majestic valley below.

A breathtaking journey into a world unlike any other! Brad was an excellent guide, sharing knowledge of the Rock formations, the plant life and the history. He adapted to our wishes and we had a fantastic time! Would highly recommend.

Not worth the money

Alicia_H, Aug 2026
Our driver went extremely slow which made the bumps even worse we didn’t get to go as far as everybody else that went on the tour because he drove so slow! Totally not worth the money… I am extremely disappointed with the amount of money that I paid for this trip. Considering I called because I got a flash flood warning alert on my way there which was very scary for me since I’m from Washington and we don’t get those! It was lightning out and I’m sorry but that is very dangerous to be taking people out when it’s lightning like that. Especially when you’re not an experienced driver and drive slow what if that lightning caused a fire we would’ve have been trapped up there.

Bumpy but fun

Sarah_L, May 2026
Views are incredible! The ride is pretty treacherous and it was probably a bit too much for my aging parents but overall we enjoyed the experience.

Sanjaykumar_H, Mar 2026
It had only one stop and mostly driving. Scenic route is decent but only worth doing if this is first experience of Sedona trip as if you take multiple excursions then this will not appeal much. Given it is only ride and one stop I recommend doing atv drive yourself and not use tour guides.

Slow and very rough ride with a view.

Marlene_B, Mar 2026
Very uncomfortable 2 hour ride on very rough terrain. Was not like the other jeep tour where We went offroading at a fast pace with occasional rough terrain. Views were very beautiful but ride was too rough and was not enjoyable. Driver blamed the President for not improving the road which we did not appreciate. Review is to help others understand this tour is 2 hours of very uncomfortable ride with no relief. Versus the occasional fun offroad experience.

RALPH was amazing,...

Terese_R, Mar 2026
RALPH was amazing, immediately accessed our level of adventure and set out to give us the best on of our trip. He got us up to Merry Go Round Rock safely and provided so much insight along the way about the history, plant life and all the questions I asked got answered. He was a gold start guide, even giving us a tip on where to do our basic star gazing afterwards!

Must Do Excursion in Sedona

Cilsy_H, Mar 2026
This 2 hour private tour is perfect! Just the right length and you get right up and close the red rock. The guides are amazing and you learn a ton while enjoying the breathtaking views. The ride is bumpy I doubt but hopefully you expect it if your looking at a jeep your! Don't think twice. It's a must do when in Sedona

When they say “off road”, they really mean it! The views were amazing. The driver was entertaining and enthusiastic. And the ride was super, super bumpy. It’s manageable and a lot of fun - just be prepared!!!

Nathan's favorite relaxed

AnnMarie_M, Oct 2025
It IS bumpy--no question! But to me -worth it. Nathan, our guide took it really slow so we didn't go as far, but he said he'd covered his favorites. Beautiful and perfect light in the late afternoon 4-6pm

Beautiful scenery and guide very knowledgeable about Sedona and the surrounding areas. Highly recommend jeep tour to see red rocks upclose

Great experience

Kelly_M, Oct 2025
We enjoyed the experience. Gene was very informative. Would recommend to anyone okay with the bumpy trails. Do not bring anything extra. I unfortunately lost my prescription glasses($500) my fault not checking everytime we hit a bump.

Better than we could imagine

Kathryn_K, Jun 2025
Scott was very knowledgeable tour guide and provided us with a great experience. The skies were overcast this afternoon and we had just the smallest amount of rain which added to our experience.

For the win!

Our driver Shep was very good, gave us details about the history of Sedona and the area rocks! He was generous with the bumps and stopped when we wanted pictures!
