Do it!! - 100% recommend the ride and shoot combo.
My son (21) and I booked this while I was in town to visit.
At the range, Shawn was professional and super knowledgeable. We enjoyed “talking guns” with him as much as we did shooting our rounds.
During our UTV ride, Bryan was the BOMB! He truly loves the desert and it shows. He loved sharing about the landscape, vegetation and wildlife. The drive and ride was fantastic!
My son rides dirt bikes and it was even adventurous enough for him, so ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

10/10 would definitely recommend - We had the most amazing time! We had the ride and shoot combo. Shaun was first up with the shooting. He took him time and explained everything so well and just made it so fun, especially for a first timer like me. Next up was the guided utv tour with Jake, Trevor and Holland. The best ride ever with the most amazing views. My time time doing something like this and would definitely do it again

Awesome!! - This was an amazing experience. Our family had soooo much fun on this tour. From beginning to end, this was a flawless excursion. Booking online, completing waivers and directions were all laid out and explained very well. We did our shooting portion first. I believe the ranger in charge was named Joe. He was very thorough in explaining safety measures and very patient in helping me fire the larger weapon. We initially booked three single atv's and one 2 passenger utv. It was so very hot the day of our ride, the folks in charge suggested and offered a utv instead of the three single atv's. The covering of utv would help with the heat and we were so glad they suggested and offered this. We feel the ride was so much better as the heat was overwhelming. We were able to go out further with the utv than we would have been able to do with atv's. Our guide Trevor 'Desert Daddy' was great!!! He was energetic and was having as much fun as we were riding. He led well and allowed us to ride for real! He stopped in key areas and was very attentive to all in the tour. If you want to do some real outdoor all out riding, this is the thing for you. They have really good solid utv's. Not wore or tattered, but in very good condition. We went through some very rugged terrain and can't say enough about how great the tour was and the ride. The scenery is spectacular! My husband and three young adult children feel it was well worth every penny and will repeat the tour if we ever visit Arizona again.

Tourist From Chicago - Austin was our instructor, he did a great job by taking us through the road desert, we had fun with the UTV. Jeff was our instructor when it came to the shooting range, pretty knowledgeable. I Recommended, something different.

Exhilarating Shooting & Trail Exploration - We arrived at 6am for our scheduled time and were greeted, checked in, and brought to the shooting range. My fiancée and I are both newbies when it comes to firearms but Jeff made us both feel super comfortable while keeping it fun! He allowed us to take numerous photos and videos on our phones of each other shooting, which made for some great memories!! We then moved on to the UTV tour with Trevor. We brought our own eye goggles and dust shields but they also offered us some complimentary ones if you didn't bring your own. We explored different trails and terrains for about 2 hours. Trevor was awesome and knowledgeable of the area and desert animal life. We saw cattle, a jack rabbit, a rattle snake, and many different birds on our UTV tour. Trevor kept the ride exhilarating but not overbearing as we are inexperienced drivers. We will definitely be back the next time we venture out to Arizona!

Best experience in Arizona! - Our family of 4, with a 12 and 15 year old, did the ride and shoot guided tour.
We all agreed that was the absolute best part of our trip to Arizona. The location was so cool, the trails were great, the range was so fun and Jeff was so kind and informative. This was an A+++ adventure and we would do it again in a heartbeat!
We started out at the shooting range. Three of us had never held or shot a gun, so we were nervous, but Jeff was great! We got a group intro and then each person shot individually with one on one guidance. This was so much fun and I can’t wait to go to a range again.
The next part of the tour was the UTV guided tour. After we were done on the range we joined a larger group that was part of the tour. We got in our vehicles and off we went. The roads were rugged but the UTVs handled them without any issues at all. The trails weaved in and around d the Sonoran desert’s hills and canyons and cactus. It was something we’ll never forget. Our guide, Jeff, was great and shared info about the nutritious and medicinal properties of the plants. And even shoo’d a rattle snake off the trail! Some of the mountains were steep and got the adrenaline pumping a little, but we felt safe at all times and the up and down and twisting and turning kept it fun and interesting start to finish! It was very dusty, so make sure you wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty (white is not a good choice).

An amazing experience - We had an amazing time! Would definitely do this again! Highly recommend! We did both the shooting range and the UTV experience. Jeff, the shooting instructor was very informative and made me feel very comfortable with handling and shooting the firearms! Bryan was our guide for the UTV He was very informative about the surrounding area and made the UTV’s experience extra fun. We did a lot of off-roading on this excursion and went through the river a couple of times.

Joe is a good guide - Joe was very informative and worked hard to communicate quickly and efficiently. Things could be better organized to eliminate long waits between activities.
