An incredible getaway near the city- - Beautiful scenery…. You will get dusty so be prepared . Somewhat bumpy. Obviously . The vehicle was newer and clean - awesome. Our tour guide was RJ. He was a very pleasant and informative , personable young man: He told us all about the land and the plants. We stopped as often as we wanted for photos. Pictures don’t do it justice: it was around 2 hours - not too long and not too short tho it’s hard to leave such beautiful landscape. Would definitely recommend this tour: allows everyone to see all of natures beauty without having to navigate. Thanks RJ- we enjoyed every minute !!!

10/10 Highly Recommend BullDog Canyon Offroad Tour 😍 - The tour & the whole experience was amazing. The tour guides were very knowledgeable & experienced. It was very well worth the money for the experience & amazing views. It was really fun & cool being in a UTV too! We stopped a few times at very nice scenic viewpoints to take pictures & take in the scenery.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is up for an offroading adventure where you can see spectacular views of the Desert.

AZ Scenery and Wildlife - Ryan our tour guide was great and informative! He takes some pictures and posts on Facebook after tour. Very nice vehicle! The mountains, plants, Saguaros, etc., were beautiful. We loved seeing at least two families of quails with their young and the rest of the wildlife out in the morning June heat. It was a very fun ride with some stops. When we come back to AZ, we'd do again or possibly check out one of their other tours.

Unique ride through the desert - Ride through parts of the protected (permits required) Tonto National Forest. Seeing the desert up close is even better than seeing it from a distance.
