Perfect tour to see and learn about vegas and surrounding areas

aleks_d, Apr 2024

The tour is well paced, with a great combination of driving through beautiful scenery and a short distance walk. The highlight was our guide JT- he’s funny, kind, flexible and taught us so much about the wildlife, history of Vegas, and everything in between. Perfect half day trip. Thank you!

Amazing tour

Troy_H, Apr 2024

Our tour guide JT was amazing! Very knowledgeable! The views were breathtaking! I would definitely recommend this tour!

Red Rock Canyon Tour

Stuart_L, Apr 2024

Steve was our tour guide and was great! (Steve told many shorts stories which reflected the history and location of our Red Rick Canyon tour - never a boring moment). …and as for the Red Rock Canyon - a really interesting and picturesque place to visit. We highly recommend this excursion.

Nice trip seeing beautiful scenery

Jim_H, Apr 2024

JY was a great guide. Shared interesting info and history of Vegas. The area was beautiful and the stop at Blue Diamond was really cool

I enjoyed the tour and...

cassandra_f, Apr 2024

I enjoyed the tour and most of all how knowledgeable the tour guide was. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.

Canyon Without a Canyon

Barry_T, Apr 2024

The tour, as presented, was really good. Steve was an excellent host, and his presentation was spot on. I was, however, disappointed that we never really saw the canyon. The tour was mostly around a state park. As I said, the tour was good. We just did not get to see what we thought we would see.

Great visit of the Red Rock Canyon

Prabhakar_K, Apr 2024

I debated if I should do this trip on my own with a rental car as it is just 30 min from the city. It turned out that going with this tour was a great decision. Steve was very knowledgeable and he explained the details behind everything that we saw and also kept us entertained throughout.

Nature next to neon

JuanCarlos_V, Apr 2024

We decided to take this tour, to get a view of the non-Las Vegas, Las Vegas. Steve picked us up exactly (I mean to the minute, 8:27 AM) and we headed out with a group of 10 towards the Red Rock area. Steve is very knowledgeable and provided all sorts of ecological and botanical data to enhance the experience. He was mindful to stop for pictures (he knows all the "Kodak moments" locations) and took us to several small towns in the area, stopping for bio breaks in several locations and a great little restaurant for a delicious homemade blueberry muffin. We visited a preserve area for a short very manageable hike and a house once owned by the homesteaders in the area. All in all, a very nice break from the concrete and neon, but also a refreshing nature experience, with great guidance by Steve.

Stunning. Just stunning.

Matty_B, Apr 2024

My pictures do not do this trip justice. 100% the best experience we have had in vegas thus far. Our tour guide was fantastic and the views/experience was just phenomenal. I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone.
