We took a private group guided hike up and over Camelback Mountain. Laurel, the business owner, kept us safe, all while making it so much fun! This is the best adventure company, and would highly recommend! You will not be disappointed!

Joe really knew the flora of the area and explained the region's landscape while hiking. It was a wonderful hike. I appreciated the water and snacks as well.

Had a great time with Henry during our guided hike. We haven't been out hiking in years, but Henry let us set the pace and stop when needed. The hike was doable for some close to 60 year's old. He gave us great info about the area & terrain. We just had great conversation.

My bestie and I took a pre-mother’s day trip. Our guide Henry was amazing. Leaned a ton and had a beautiful hike! The pace was perfect that allowed us to explore yet get a great workout in.

We had a group of 14 co-workers being guided by Laurel’s team. We had not only a lot of fun, but we took gorgeous pictures and videos of the experience. Laurel and team took the time to educate us about the Sonora dessert flora. I strongly recommend this company. Excellent experience and a great value for your money.

Jay was a great guide. He took the hike at our own pace and we enjoyed learning more about the Sonoran Desert.

My friend and I did a sunset hike with Don at Wild Bunch Desert Guides, and it was the highlight of our trip! Don is funny and highly knowledgeable, so in addition to enjoying the amazing views and scenery, he also gave us lots of information about the animals and plants we saw. I highly recommend using them the next time you’re in Phoenix/Scottsdale!

Laura & team provided a great hiking experience to our family of 14! Thank you so much for making it fun, putting up with us, & dividing up the group according to hiking abilities.

Laurel (owner) was great getting me scheduled during a busy weekend. I did a solo sunrise hike with Matt and it was fantastic. He was prompt, informative, more than well-prepared, energetic and professional. Thanks for a great hiking experience!

I knew when I visited Phoenix that I wanted to go hiking but as a first timer I also knew I wasn’t going without a guide. I chose this company because of the great reviews that were left so I thought I would add in to them. Joe was a wonderful guide for my hike with my friends! He was very informative about the desert and made sure we were staying safe and hydrated. I would definitely recommend him and this company to anyone looking to hike wether experienced or not!
