It was very fun, so nice to pilot brand new machinery that takes the bumps pretty good! They split us up into smaller groups which was nice, the views were amazing and so was our guide. Definitely recommend.

Ryan was our guide and it was fantastic. Great tour, his insights into the dessert and all of the things we pasted was a huge added benefit. I would highly recommend it.

I had an incredible experience with Desert Dog Off-Road Adventure, thanks to Mike. From start to finish, the adventure was exciting, well-organized, and absolutely unforgettable. Mike’s knowledge, professionalism, and passion for off-roading made the experience both fun and safe, while still delivering plenty of adrenaline and stunning desert views. It was an awesome, high-energy adventure that exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend Desert Dog Off-Road Adventure to anyone looking for a truly memorable off-road experience.

We had so much fun for my husband’s birthday! The trail was a blast, easy but very adventurous. Ryan and our other guide (I’m sorry I can’t remember your name!) were very knowledgeable and were very funny. I highly recommend this trip.
