The whole process from checkin to riding to ending was great. Our tour guide was awesome. They provided everything we needed for the tour and even took multiple photos we could download for free. Many chances to get a drink and rotate through the group. My son and I highly recommend Stellar.

Such a fun day! Gabe, our tour guide was fantastic. We toured many different terrains, felt safe but also ‘let it rip’. It was a blast and we’ll def do it again! Watch out for the GBFR’s!!

Can't say enough good things about Stellar Adventures. Repeat customer, all our other excursions were for work (Humvee tours, UTV tours, ATV tours with catered dinners and stargazing at the end of the trail). This time was a solo visit with my teenage son, his first time doing something like this. Gabe was a fantastic tour guide, and we definitely got our money's worth.
Normally they cover 20 miles over the 2 hours. We were booking it and did 35 miles. Free bonus that it rained in the morning so we were treated to rainbows this time out. We'll be back.

UTVs were so fun. Colton did a fantastic job as our tour guide. Gave us some great pointers as first time trail riders. 3 kids with us (7, 9, 11 yo) and they had a blast riding along.
#stellaradventuresaz is prepared for everything. Beautiful 70° day. Storms came in and temps dropped to 50 and rain. Colton had rain ponchos and gloves to keep everyone warm. Thank you!!! Turned this trip from a miserable outlook to amazing!
Next time we are back in AZ, this will be a for sure stop.
The rain actually made for a perfect adventure and kept the dust down too. Don’t be discouraged by a rainy day. Just be prepared and you will have a blast. If anything, schedule for a rainy day! Views were awesome, puddles were a blast.

Amazing experience!! Our tour guide Devin was a blast, he kept us very safe and showed us an awesome time. The views were beautiful. I can't wait to come back and do it again!

Devo was an amazing guide-- he took the time to show the machines to everyone and to make sure we all felt comfortable. On the trail he did a great job of keeping track of everyone and pointing out fun things along the way. My sisters and I loved the UTV and were able to swap out drivers so we all got a chance to try. We were visiting from Utah and was out first time seeing saguaros and the high desert. It was absolutely amazing to get so up close and personal.

The meeting point was well marked, thorough instructions and we had a great time on the trails. Guides were knowledgeable and adapted well to a diverse group of ages. Highly recommend this adventure! Our group had three adults, 16, 13 and 11.

Overall, we had an amazing time. Tom our guide was extremely fun to be around and very informative throughout our whole trip. The UTVs were pretty much new, the trails were thrilling, and the sunset was breathtaking.
I wanted so badly to give this trip a 5 start rating but didn't because the disclaimer sent AFTER our purchase of the trip states that Uber/Lift is unable to map directions to the start point. We ended up having to use Uber to a casino location 15 miles away from the meeting spot. Our Uber driver was so nice and agreed to drive us another 15 miles as we brainstormed together to find the right location. When we were done, we could not find an Uber/Lift to pick us up (I guess no one wants to drive to the dessert), but our guide came to our rescue and dropped us off maybe 10 miles away were we called for an Uber.
So, keep in mind if you're not driving yourself, you might have a hard time finding transport. The company does offer transportation but it's not on a regular.

This was awesome. The day was perfect and so was the riding. Stellar Adventures took good care of us. They provided all the gear and expertise. We would highly recommend. Devo was the guide and we couldn't be happier.

We had an unforgettable experience riding through Tonto National Forest with our tour guide, Lowell. He greeted us at the lot and got us all geared up, explaining the tips for the UTV. He made sure to make stops throughout the trip to explain the local plants and animals, including a deep dive on all the kinds of cacti in the region. The UTV had great giddy-up and at times you felt like you were floating on the sand, which was really cool. There were canyons and other great features to explore and it felt good getting off the grid for a bit. It’s an easy drive from Scottsdale and we’d highly recommend to anyone!
