      Top Attraction in Sedona
      Russ and Adam were top notch guides. They had expert level knowledge of the route, the scenery and the art of making one feel comfortable. The knowledge shared about the wild life, the history of the surroundings and the geologic evolution of the area made the adventure educational and fun. Highly Recommend!

      East Coast takes on Sedona!
      10 out of 10 would do this again! Alen and Jared (hope we remembered that right) were so friendly and fun! The other guests in our group were well versed in this activity too, so it made the trip overall more advanced which was awesome. We did the 1:00 tour, which was beautiful to see the landscape change with the sun going down on the way back. We also caught some pronghorn antelope on the way back! Thank you for putting up with our shenanigans, we had so much freaking fun and made memories to last a lifetime!!!!

      Exceptional, remarkable, incredible, awesome tour!!!!!
      An amazing adventure!! I've never been on an ATV and at 66 I wasn't sure if I could do it. The staff were outstanding at instructing, teaching, helping and supporting me throughout the adventure!! Our guide Alen was very knowledgeable and very informative. Neither word nor pictures can capture the incredible beauty of the scenery! The ATV tour is unique, exciting and fun experience!! So glad I did it. I'll be back. Truely Extraordinary!!!!

      Our favorite tour
      We did so many tours and attractions but doing this atv guided tour was our absolute favorite! It had everything, some off roading turbulence, getting to go fast, taking some amazing family pictures and getting up close to the red rock mountain range. And it was all possible because of our tour guide Adam! He makes you feel comfortable on handling the ATV and creating the best experience. He did all the work for us so we could have worry-free family fun.

      One of the greatest experiences in Sedona!
      This ATV tour was the highlight of our family vacation to Sedona. Adam was our guide and he was amazing! He was very knowledgeable of the area, was fun and friendly. Everyone had a great time ranging from the ages of 9-76. We would highly recommend taking this tour when visiting Sedona. The views were breathtaking!

      Amazing ATV tour!!! Highly recommended!
      Our family of 5 had an incredible time on our ATV tour! We had a parent with a kid on 2 doubles, and our 15 yo rode with our guide. We all had a blast!!! It was well organized, safe, adventurous, gorgeous, and interesting! Our tour guide Larry was amazing…. Funny and yet made us all feel comfortable. He knew about the land and scenery and took us to places we would not have found on our own. Would highly recommend!!!!!

      Best way to see the Sedona landscape!
      This was an unexpected awesome experience!! I had never driven an ATV before and didn't know how it would go. Our guide Alen was excellent in training us on the safety protocols and had us do a practice circuit before hitting the trails. I loved the views and how we had periodic stops for bathroom and snack breaks. It gets very bumpy and dusty in some parts, so definitely wear something you don't mind getting dirty. Also, in the colder months, bring a good pair of gloves!

      Great experience and loved Sedona.
      We had a great guide named Alen. He constantly made sure we were comfortable and had no questions. We stopped along the way and he gave us some history. We took pictures of the beautiful landscape. It was a great ride.

      Best outdoor experience I've ever had.
      If you are looking for a fun trip with some adrenaline, dirt, and awesome views this is for you. Alex the tour guide was awesome and made sure there was something for everyone. You can ride how you want. Slow, hard, or something in between you won't be disappointed. The guides want to make sure you enjoy the experience. It was nothing I expected. Fantastic trip. Highly recommend if you want some hands on fun.

      This tour was so much fun. Tyler was our guide and he was excellent. He was big on safety and making sure we had a good time. We stopped at some stunning locations, Tyler shared his knowledge about the area, and we took amazing photos. ATV adventure tour is a must if you’re in the area.

    I loved driving up and through the Box Canyon with Ray. The weather was beautiful and the canyon was amazing. The ATV ride was a lot of fun... definitely worth doing again. Ray was a great guide... professional, fun, made me feel safe with the ATV, and made me feel safe out on the land. I highly recommend the tour!

    This is an absolutely do not miss excursion! Bill was so nice and made the trip incredibly fun! He also shared knowledge and awesome stories that brought the activity to life. My friend and I were even running late from the airport after our flight came in late and ATV adventures waited for us which was incredibly considerate given we were late. Bill made us feel comfortable before riding with his training and the tour itself was breathtakingly beautiful and also exhilarating. I can’t rave enough about how fun this was and how it made our trip to AZ that much better! Definitely recommend!

    We wanted to experience an ATV ride in Sedona AZ but upon searching the locations, we found this tour close to Gilbert AZ, which is where our daughter lives. I booked the tour for 6 people in my family. When we arrived at the location, there were a couple in our tour group as well. So there were just 4 ATVs in our tour group plus the tour guide's ATV. It felt like a private tour for us. The location was kind of hard to find in the GPS but they are good at giving directions.

    The guide taught us how to handle the ATV and we were allowed to practice in a small area first. After 15 minutes, we went straight to the Box Canyon. The canyon view was so awesome. At times w had to ride through uneven rocky trails, which is what the ATV is supposed to perform in these rough conditions.

    The ride was very dusty, so the guide gave us bandanas to cover our faces (which we got to keep). Overall, I really recommend this tour if you're visiting Phoenix.

    Some friends of ours took this tour and recommended it especially since our teenage grandkids were coming to visit. The tour was three hours long but the first 30 to 45 minutes on the road is getting to the trail head of the Box Canyon. I think they should relocate their staging area where we saw other vehicles and trailers parked thereby shortening the tour and reducing the cost. It was a thrill for our one grandchild who was 15 1/2 with learners learners permit. Our other two grandchildren were double riding with us. The passenger seat is very cushioned and does not require clutching the driver as you might on a motorcycle.
    Our tour guide was Ray. We thought he was a character and gave us all a brief but pertinent information on how to operate the quads. The box Canyon at South is very pretty and as you approach it there is an area that has a vast amount of saguaro and cholla. Near the turnaround there is a little Adobe ruin that makes a great photo op Ray pulled over at the petroglyphs for some background on how they got there.

    This was a cool tour. The riding double option plus $40 for the second rider keeps the tour affordable. 3 hour tour. 34 miles, with 10 in the Box Canyon. The guide was good. The Greek restaurant Mount Athos was a good spot for lunch in Florence. I believe we had 6 total ATV's on the tour including the driver.

    Took the Box Canyon tour with Ray in January and it was so worth the money! A friend and I decided to take an ATV last minute and they met us at the site for the tour an hour later. The tour is just long enough to get your money's worth but not too long where you get bored. We saw the canyon, cows and an old US POstal building from the 1800's. such a fun day and Ray was a GREAT guide!!

    My fiance and I had a blast on our guided ATV tour with Bill in the Box Canyon. Since this was their first tour after reopening during the Covid-19, we were the only ones on the tour and so it became a private tour!! Bill gave us a very nice overview of how to use their ATV's and their safety guidelines. Afterwards, we were able to go on a test drive and then off we went! Bill was a very pleasant tour guide to be with and gave us a lot of neat history facts about the places we were seeing.

    Tips:
    1. We drove past the staging area which is where we were supposed to meet. The sign actually says "ATV" and not "Arizona ATV Adventures." It is also a smaller sign so may be hard to see.
    2. Bring old clothes you don't mind getting dirty. We were covered from head to toe in dust by the end of the tour.
    3. There are storage bins to the left and right of the ATV so you can bring a small bag to store your belongings.
    4. There are no restrooms at the outside staging area so I'd recommend going beforehand.

    This was a great tour and adventure. The scenery was amazing and you were very off road into the canyon. The ATV's were roomy so we were very comfortable.
    The tour provided you with helmets, gloves, bandanas to cover your face from dust and goggles. It also helped up stay warm as it was a bit cool when we started at 8am.

    Ray was a very good tour guide. He was nice, informative and also had a good sense of humor. We would go again in a heartbeat.

    It was a great way to see some beautiful areas not allowed with cars. This tour is worth every penny. I highly recommend this company and tour of Box Canyon.

    This outing was the highlight of my family’s out west adventure! We did the 34 mile box canyon tour and I loved every second of it. We went over various terrain and surfaces, which kept it exciting. We did the beginner level ride and anyone without ATVing experience could handle this course. My sister had never ridden before and she did very well/was comfortable tackling the adventure.

    The guides, Bill and Ray, were very professional and helpful. Along they way, they made sure everyone was staying hydrated and happy. Prior to leaving, they ensured everyone was prepared to ride and had the necessary skills. One of my favorite parts is the trip was the history lessons.

    I would 10/10 recommend that everyone do this adventure. It’s well worth the money!

    I spent about three hours with our tour guide Ray at the Box Canyon on Florence, Arizona; and really enjoyed it. Ray is one of those guys that could spend long conversation hours without feeling bored. He did like three stops, of about 10 minutes each, along the route to take a break (water and snacks are included), and at every stop he explained a little of Box Canyon history. Bring some water at the of the trip to wash your hands and face, the road on the Box Canyon is full of loose soil, and you will finish with dust all over your body. All the equipment that I wear was previously cleaned and sanitized.
