Traveler Tips

Modestly difficult as Irving has to cater to the weakest link.

Would highly recommend this hike as they shuttle you out and back in a nice van, and it's not a far drive out of the city.

Chose this hike if you're looking for a great experience to get off the Vegas Strip and see what's out there.

Gavin- the best guide I’ve had on this hike!

LeaAnn_D, Mar 2023

Gavin- I loved him and at moments I cursed him! But he was wonderful! He helped me when I was terrified and he was so sweet!

Great experience!

Susan_M, Mar 2023

We had a great time and our guide, Christine, was fantastic. Highly recommend this as an option to get away from Vegas for several hours.

Great nature trip with great scenery

2rftq4fh7j, Mar 2023

I truly recommend it if you want to enjoy a fascinating trip into the nature. Great communication, easy drive from and to the park, and ability to choose a couple of hike options. I recommend you bring a lite jacket, light snack, and proper hiking shoes.

Short but pleasant

Catherine_R, Mar 2023

It was a pleasant way to spend an afternoon and the scenery is lovely and the guides and fellow travellers were good company but the actual walk was very short - just four kilometres.. I felt it was pretty expensive for such a short stroll.

Great tour

Alexandra_M, Mar 2023

The landscape in Red Rock Canyon is spectacular. It is worth getting away from the Strip and seeing another side to the area. The hike was a good pace and our guide checked in frequently to make sure everyone was doing ok.

Excellent guided hike with Gavin! Highly recommend this tour.

Clarissa_R, Mar 2023

Gavin was an excellent tour guide. Despite the rain and wind we had a fantastic time. Gavin showed us waterfalls, pretty creeks and wild flowers. Gavin is so relaxing to be around we would love to do a multi day tour with him in the future.

Awesome Day at Calico Basin

Lisa_N, Mar 2023

Awesome scenery … fun and challenging hike … Christine is an amazing guide. I didn’t know anyone when we first set out, and Team Butt Sliders (as we named ourselves) was a blast!

A hike through the beautiful rocks of Vegas

Michael_T, Mar 2023

We did a hiking tour through the Red Rock Canyon National Park. We saw some of the most beautiful rocks. It was absolutely breathtaking. And to top it off, we had a guide who was very knowledgeable about the park, easy going, nice, super cool and very accommodating. Thank for an awesome day Christine.

Enjoying the good views,...

Alan_D, Mar 2023

Enjoying the good views, getting to know fellow hikers and getting to experience navigating the terrain.

Trisha_L, Mar 2023

Went on a hiking tour with Christine. We chose the scenic hike not the "workout" hike. It was informative and beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Majestic hike

Heidi_F, Mar 2023

Amazing 4 hour break from busy Vegas strip. Our guide, Christine was very friendly and knowledgeable, sharing many fun titbits about the area's history and lifecycle. Our group chose an easy hike that allowed chatting and gawking at the natural beauty. Perfect!

Great hiking tour!!

Horace_B, Feb 2023

Gavin was an amazing tour guide. His energy and good vibes was everything. I’m glad I went. I would do it again.

Awesome hike

Dawn_M, Feb 2023

The rock formations (as well as seeing the polka dot and striped rocks), the beautiful scenery and the fact that it snowed.

A hike to remember!

KELLIE_P, Feb 2023

Our guide, Gavin, was so friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming! He was the reason we had a memorable experience!! Would highly recommend this hiking tour and ask for Gavin….you will not be disappointed!!

Beautiful wall through red rocks!

Rachel_G, Feb 2023

We absolutely loved this hike! We got to choose between a few hikes and ended up going with the most scenic option. Our guide was absolutely a joy to have she shared a lot of info about the flora and fauna and made sure the experience was comfortable for people of all different levels. 10/10 would do again!
