Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for passengers on the ATV/UTV adventure?

A: There’s actually no strict age limit for passengers, but kids should be at least 5 years old to ride along comfortably. Just make sure they meet the height requirement for the helmets and are able to hold on tight! It’s a great family outing, just keep an eye on the weather and dress appropriately.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the adventure?

A: If the weather doesn’t cooperate, Desert Dog Offroad will reach out to you to reschedule your tour. Safety is their priority, so if it’s too rainy or there’s a storm, they’ll make sure you have the option to come another day. Keep an eye on the forecast when you book!

Q: Is it easy to drive the UTV? I'm not experienced at all.

A: Totally, the UTVs are pretty user-friendly. The guides will give you a quick rundown on how to operate it before you hit the trails, and they’re there to help you adjust as needed. Even if you’ve never driven one before, you’ll get the hang of it quickly!

Thinking of gifting the ATV desert tour for my boyfriend's birthday!

I’m considering this ATV/UTV experience in Scottsdale for my boyfriend’s birthday! He loves outdoor activities, and I think this will be perfect. The idea of riding through the Sonoran Desert sounds amazing, especially the rock gardens. Has anyone done this? How was the guide? Any tips? It’s a bit pricey but looks worth it!

Just booked the UTV adventure—any must-dos before we go?

I just booked the UTV adventure for my partner and me! I’m so pumped! However, I’m a bit clueless about what to wear. Do we need special shoes or gear? And what’s the best time of day to go? Any advice would be appreciated!
