Sonoran Desert Hike - When planning a vacation to Phoenix I was recommended by a friend to checkout the desert tours with Wild Bunch Desert Guides. We took this tour at the end of January and were not disappointed. Diane our guide, gave us a great private tour of the Sonoan desert. She expertly mapped the route to our abilities and provided all kinds of information about the desert eco system and entertaining stores about Phoenix and Arizona history. She provided water, snacks and hiking poles and continually checked on our well being. I would highly recommend her as guide anytime.

1/2day hike - Henry was the best guide. He took great care of us and provided us everything we could ever need. Water, snacks, back pack, sunscreen etc. He also did a great job touching base with us before the trip.

Make the Sonoran come alive - Our guide, Lisa, was knowledgeable and made the hike so rich. She was attentive to allowing us the pace we were comfortable with. A treasure trove of information, Lisa made the Sonoran desert come to life for us.

A Worthwhile Experience! - Amazing tour! Our tour guide Kim went above and beyond to make this a memorable tour for myself and my children. She was knowledgeable of all the surrounding area and ready to answer all our questions. She came completely prepared with all gear including all the extra water and snacks we needed. It was such a personal experience that by the end Kim was like family. This is a do not miss experience!

Great activities for a girls getaway! - Our group of 5 women,(all family, age range 32-63) had a blast with Matt and Don from Wild Bunch. We stayed at The Boulders and Laurel did a great job picking 2 trailheads within 15minutes drive-time of our resort. We did a morning half day hike followed by a 2 hour sunset mountain bike ride the following day. Both guides were very knowledgeable of the desert surroundings. We learned a lot and felt safe the entire time. The booking process was smooth, as well as the follow-up for where to meet etc. Provided snacks, backpacks, water etc. Really enjoyed the challenge and appreciated that on each tour, the guide made sure to confirm our comfort levels and abilities along the way. Highly recommend! Will book again if ever in the Scottsdale area

Awesome hike! - Great hike! Kim was an awesome guide. Water and snacks were provided in a small backpack to carry. Kim was patient and allowed for many rest stops. We didn't feel rushed. Many breathtaking views, and information about local vegetation.
