Anthony was a great guide and made the experience so much fun! He even stopped at a park on the drive back so we could see the big horned sheep. Highly recommend! Beautiful scenery!!

We had an amazing experience on the Valley of Fire half-day guided hike! Julia, our guide, was very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. She answered all of our questions and made sure we were comfortable and safe throughout the entire hike. She was also kind enough to take pictures for us, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience and I highly recommend it!

We went out on the half day tour with Ryan on Easter Sunday. We had a pretty small group so the tour was great. He had all the facts (and dad jokes 🤣) and he made sure everyone was able to have a great experience. My wife and I loved it. We’ll definitely recommend to others and be back again! Thanks Ryan!
