Great Day on the trail with Arizona Adventures. - This experience exceeded all my expectations! Paul the owner of Arizona Adventures made my 1st mountain bike ride amazing. He did a very thorough job in explaining the ride, setting up the bike, ride safety and trail etiquette. Paul outlined the ride and provided excellent coaching on how to ride the trail. He also stopped frequently to hydrate and check how you were doing physically. He also took time to explain the different cactus varieties. I will definitely book another guided tour with Arizona Adventures. Thanks again Paul for making this a great experience!

Amazing time on the trail! - This was an amazing experience! When I signed up, I was a little bit nervous as I had never mountain biked before, but knew that I wanted to give it a try. Paul gave me a quick lesson of some mountain biking tips, and then we were off! Paul came very prepared with all of the safety equipment and plenty of snacks and water. During the ride, he personalized the trail route to better suit my speed/skill level.While riding, he pointed out cool rocks and cacti and had time to stop for some pictures. After this amazing experience, it makes me want to purchase my own mountain bike haha! 10/10 would recommend, and the next time I am in Arizona I will definitely be back.

A great 3 hours, rolling through the Sonoran Desert with Arizona Adventure Guides - I found myself with a half day to spare in Scottsdale. I fancied some fresh air and also an opportunity to take in the unique, Arizona terrain. This Mountain Bike ride hit the bill. Paul, the owner of 'Arizona Adventure Guides' is an amazing guide. I met him (by arrangement) at the Trailhead entry point to the national park. He provides all you need - the quality bike, helmet, water and a small rucksack for spare water and to stash your mobile phone. The next three hours were spent rolling through the network of Park trails, visiting different areas of interest. Paul is very personable and incredibly knowledgable of the local area, the wildlife and the fauna. There was nothing seemingly that he didn't know and I learned a lot. In terms of the physical challenge, Paul tailors the route, distance and level of difficulty to the guest. It was clear that safety is of paramount importance. There were regular track junctions where we paused and Paul described route options. As a result, this trip is a great choice for all, irrespective of cycling ability and fitness. There are options to do shorter trips if needed. I would thoroughly recommend Paul and Arizona Adventure Guides and took a lot from the trip. I know that Paul also does hiking trips, so a good option might be to combine a hike with a bike ride

Great experience! - Paul was an excellent guide. He made sure to give us safety tips up front, teach a few technical skills during the ride and keep it fun. No one in the family had previously done any mountain biking but everyone came away from the experience wanting to do it again.
