      Great experience, beautiful scenery, a lot of fun
      My son won a tour for 2 in a raffle. Since he's not old enough to drive we chose the UTV tour. Making a reservation over the phone was simple and straightforward. We received multiple texts leading up to the day of the tour explaining everything we needed to know. The meeting location near Four Peaks was easy to find and the check in was quick. No one in our tour had any experience driving a UTV, but our guide Mitch was great at explaining how they worked. We were soon out on the trails and having an awesome time. Within 20 minutes my son was contemplating how he can save up enough money for a UTV by the time he turns 16. We worked out way up from trails that required us to drive slower as we were getting used to the vehicles, to long stretches that really let you put your foot into it later into the tour. Overall, it was a great experience.

      A little dust never hurt nobody!
      An amazing experience!!! Would recommend to any adventure seekers! Devo was a great guide and gave us a lot of interesting facts about the area. This was our first UTV trip and we would definitely do it again. I thought the 12 pm tour was a great time to go. The weather was awesome and the sun was out.

      Great way to explore the beautiful desert. Communication from booking to end of tour and after was great. Bryan picked us up as planned and took us on a wonderful drive. He was knowledgeable in all the desert has to offer. We stopped several time s to snap some photos and talk and explore on foot a bit. I would highly recommend this trip. We are already looking into booking gone of the other tours they offer on our next visit.

      Seeing the mountains and the desert was exciting. I didn't know there was so many different types of plants in this desert. It was so beautiful. It was an interesting ride in the Hummer.

      My wife and I used the UTV. Tom was our guide. He was next level fun and awesome. He adjusted to our skill level and knew we wanted to have an awesome experience. That is what he delivers. Off roading in the desert with him was the best. It is the real deal. Highly recommend this group.

      The Highlight of Our Trip!
      We had such a great time on our UTV tour! Our guides Devo and Clover were amazing. They made sure we were safe and comfortable, but always having a great time. The scenery was beautiful and we have great pictures to remember it by!

      Desert stargazing tour
      The trip we took was billed as "Arizona Stargazing Tour with Night Vision." POSITIVES: We definitely saw stars out in the desert and were instructed by an extremely knowledgeable astronomer (Aaron? Erin?) with a powerful telescope. The views of the night sky were fantastic. The ride out and back were also fun in a rugged desert vehicle, driven by Brian who was well versed in local lore. However, although the stargazing was fascinating, there seemed to be no set program and it ended after a couple hours when the guide seemed to run out of things to tell us. NEGATIVES: Night vision opps were promised but we had to ask for the devices to be brought out of the truck. (Likewise, snacks and water were promised, but only water was ever offered.) A little more information on the surrounding beautiful night desert would have been welcome. But the biggest negative was the extremely high price for what was provided.

      We had so much fun! This was a great way to explore the desert. Our guide, Mitch, was awesome! The complimentary photos are a huge bonus! We would definitely look into booking another trip when we come back to the area.

      NCAA tournament fun
      We were in town for the NCAA final 4 and needed something to do between rounds. We decided to get ahold of Stellar Adventures and they did not disappoint. Our guide Devo was amazing and the whole team was awesome to be around. Our group consisted of experienced and not experienced riders. Everyone in our group had a blast on the tour. All the machines we road were brand new. We could not have asked for a better experience! Thank You Stellar team!

      The whole process from checkin to riding to ending was great. Our tour guide was awesome. They provided everything we needed for the tour and even took multiple photos we could download for free. Many chances to get a drink and rotate through the group. My son and I highly recommend Stellar.

    I can't thank Tom enough for the incredible ATV tour we experienced for my sister's bachelorette party! He took the time to understand our group’s comfort levels, expertly adjusting the pace to ensure everyone had the best experience possible.

    The thrill of speeding up on the open trails mixed with moments of breathtaking scenery made for an unforgettable adventure. Tom's guidance was spot-on, allowing us to push our limits while also feeling safe and supported. His enthusiasm was infectious, and he made sure everyone was having a great time!

    If your group is looking for a fun and adventurous outing, this is it! We laughed, cheered, and had a blast. Thank you, Tom, for making this bachelorette celebration so special!

    My brother and I wanted to try something different on our trip to Arizona, and this activity fit the bill. He did ATV, I did UTV. Guide was really personable and did an excellent job of making my brother feel at ease on the ATV. Riding the UTV was like driving a cross between a golf cart and a jeep - nothing to be scared of. The sunset ride provided SPECTACULAR views deep in the desert that I don't think we would have seen on our own. Guide did a great job of rotating the driving order of the UTVs so that everybody got a turn in the front, back, and middle. Do keep in mind that if you are staying in the PHX area, the meet point is a good 40-50 minute drive, so plan accordingly.

    We were on the Sonoran Desert guided ATV Adventure tour with a group of good friends who play football together and a handful of parents to celebrate one of the boy's 17th birthdays. From start to finish It was an amazing experience that ended with a bit of a twist. The guides Chad and Tom were knowledgeable, engaging, and focused on providing a fun and safe experience for the group. Safety is clearly important to the Stellar Adventures team, and they took the time to explain how to operate the 4-wheelers and even more time talking about the importance of safety and the potential risks on the trail. I have worked in the construction industry for over 23 years and personally believe that sending everyone home safe is the most important thing we do every day. It was clear that the Stellar Adventures team has a similar mindset and they provided additional guidance and safety briefings throughout the tour.

    Sometimes there are things that are out of your control......such as going around a corner too fast and launching yourself into a Cholla cactus at 30+ MPH like my son did. Aside from the thousands of cactus barbs stuck in every part of his body, he was ok. Everyone jumped in to help out, removing the cactus from his hands, face, rear, leg, ankle and just about every other part of his body other than his head and eyes which were protected by the helmet and goggles. There was an opportunity for them to say "I told you so", but that was not the approach. What we got was help, care, and true compassion. My son is doing fine, and we are lucky to walk away with good life lesson and a memory that none of us will ever forget.

    My highest recommendation for Stellar Adventures.

    Group of four with two teenage girls 17-19. Nice drive through the desert country side to reach meeting point. Devo was excellent guide who provided right mix of safety first approach with ‘let’s have some fun.’ Would recommend that solo riders are 16+ with some driving experience. The trails and undulating terrain require balance and sense of speed and direction beyond what a couple of practice loops in a flat, hard pack parking provides—especially for younger teenagers. We had a blast and would highly recommend!

    There's a reason why they have so many amazing reviews. Not only were the actual ATVs a ton of fun but our guide, Devo, also deserves 5 stars! Our group of four ended up renting two ATVs and one side-by-side. The experience was so much fun and quite a rush. Devo also made it interesting, informative, and just that much more entertaining. The time flew by and I wish we could have spent more time out there. If you're thinking about doing it, don't hesitate. You won't be disappointed. Just be warned, if you're riding on the ATV, your legs will actually get quite a workout!

    What an incredible adventure! So, I had reservations about ATV'ing, an objectively dangerous way to spend an afternoon. But, I was immediately impressed by the care and focus on safety of our guide, Devvo. He was no nonsense when it came to safety, but was also intent on making sure everyone had a fun, exciting adventure. His instructions were crystal clear, well-timed and easy to understand. He was fun and funny and attentive to those in our group who had never been on an ATV (which was almost everyone). I highly recommend this company, and especially Devvo, if you're looking for a solid, safe and extremely fun adventure. Five Stars, definitely.

    Amazing guided ATV/UTV tour! If you're looking for an adventure in the phoenix/scottsdale area this is definitely the tour to book. Our guide, Devo, was amazingly helpful and funny. He assisted with safety, snacking, gearing up, sightseeing, photos, and animal spotting. I highly recommend the sunset time tour because you'll have a spectacular desert view at the end of your trip to top it off.

    This was the best vacation adventure we’ve been on! Took our family (7 yr old, 13 yr old, and two adults). Was a blast! I drove a UTV with my 7 yr old and the other two in our party ( 13 yo and adult) rode ATV’s. Was worth the $ and gave us priceless memories! Devo was our guide and did a fantastic job at helping our novice rider learn and master the trails. The scenery was outstanding and the time flew by. Bring jackets if you’re going at sunset, could not recommend an activity more for families!

    I've been an AZ local for 20+ years and spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking, kayaking, you name it...but I've never driven an ATV through the desert and I gotta say, the experience with Stellar Adventures was nothing short of phenomenal. We had the pleasure of being guided by Spencer, who was such a genuinely nice guy and made sure the entire 2 hour tour was fun but above all, safe for everyone. He made sure to explain everything really well, stopped a handful of times to take really cool pictures of us, hand out waters and just overall made everyone feel super comfortable and again, SAFE! We will definitely be back again for a sunset ride sometime!

    The trip was amazing! Our guide- Gabe, was very professional and friendly. He took ample time to review safety briefings and highlight each part of the tour.
    The views on the tour were amazing and the terrain covered was fun and challenging.
    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and highly recommend it to anyone interested in experiencing the beauty of the desert.
