    Our favorite part is the train car set up beside the deck. The distillery features rums, whiskey and other items.

    Who would have expected interesting and well-made rums in the middle of the desert?? It was fun taking a journey along their various spirits, and a short little distillery/aging room tour. The owners are really into their craft and it comes through with fun excitement and the way they share what they do. I tried a variety of the liquors and while some were not my thing, some were interesting and very good, and most importantly to me--unique.

    Took a detour in Kingman & found this diamond in the desert. Tasting room was fun and very comfortable, Our server Patti was off the charts & We even got to meet the distiller who was super friendly.

    Owner John was super friendly, we enjoyed tasting the rum. We took home a bottle of the Rye Rum and the agave rum which is a little sweeter (no mixing needed) and will be nice to sip on in the evening. Oh... and there is a train caboose you can rent out as an Airbnb on the property.

    My husband and I really enjoyed our time at the Desert Diamond Distillery. We liked our grilled cheese sandwiches in the Pullman car and loved reading the history of Pullman porters. I thought the balsamic vinegars were delicious and my husband really enjoyed the whiskeys. The place is dog friendly; it was wonderful to not have my four-legged friends stay alone in the RV. The distillery is also a member of Harvest Hosts. They were so welcoming upon our arrival. What a wonderful place to spend an evening and night.

    We had an great time learning about rum, vodka and whiskey from John and Debbie. We loved the agave rum and bought a bottle for our travels. We stayed here through harvest hosts and are so glad we did. Plenty of room for our 43' Fifth wheel and truck to turn around and to sleep comfortably for the night. The owners are friendly and accommodating and we had a great time here!

    Train cars! Beautifully redone. One is furnished as an  airbnb. Wouldn't that be a fun stay?

    We had such a great time at the distillery. Over 2 nights we tried both of their tasting flights and wow, the flavors are amazing. Rum, whiskey, vodka... what!?! All interesting and different and delicious. They also have a great assortment of flavored olive oils and vinegars. We purchased a bottle of the dark rum (totally sippable and mixable) and a bottle of Basil Olive Oil. I can't wait to try it over pasta. John, the owner and spirit master, was super enjoyable and took us on a tour of his restored train cars. You've got to see the Pullman!

    John & Deborah, thank you again (this is our 3rd or 4th visit) for your hospitality, out-of-the-box business thinking, fantastical cocktails, and down-to-Earth conversations. We love hearing you're doing well and hope to join one of your dinner events soon! Ward and I enjoyed their Devil's Espresso Chocolate Kiss Martini and Devils Dark Citris Kiss! #HalloweenCocktails #kingman Oh...and TYVM Smith, for literally driving an hour forty minutes each way for me to try, enjoy, and get buzzed off of this "BOO"ze!You are a generous man and I do not take you for granted. https://desertdiamonddistillery.com

    We came here as Harvest Host visitors and loved it!! After towing a 5th wheel trailer from Los Angeles, a whiskey tasting is what is needed! What a way to unwind!! We did the whiskey and rum tasting and wanted to buy some for the road. Our dog was welcomed inside and they had a water dish for him. They had a charcuterie board available that was delicious!! They have other items available for purchase but I plopped in a chair and drank lovely whiskey until the road weariness went away! The owners are fabulous. We chatted for 2 hours that seemed like 5 minutes. They are doing some innovative things with the distilling process that are very unique to their brand. And free range chickens!

    Awesome food, awesome service, awesome place! Wonderful ambience best in the area, probably the world!

    A few of D3's exceptional offerings.

    While on a road trip, we stopped in Kingman Arizona, where we met John Patt, owner and distiller at Desert Diamond Distillery. After tasting several of his award winning rums and vodka, a few came home with us. If you enjoy sipping a really good drink, stop in and get yourself a bottle or a few.

    Stopped in for a tour and tasting, ended up staying a couple hours! Great spirits through and through. Left with some goodies. Great staff, really enjoyed chatting with Sonya!

I cannot recommend this highly enough. Our guide, Kelly, had old pictures and knew so much of this history of Old Las Vegas. It was amazing!! He told us where to get affordable water (ABC stores) and why ABC stores (which are Hawaii-based stores) are around, took us through the history of so many hotels and the highlights. We did this in December, so I am sure it is a lot hotter in the summer, but there is a lot of indoor space. I'd still recommend a water bottle. All of us loved learning and he was a great story teller. You go all the way down to Container Park and get some coupons and restaurant tip sheet at the end. You will be on your feet for two hours so wear comfy shoes. But we actually would consider staying down in "old Las Vegas" the next time we come, all because of this tour.

We loved learning the history of Vegas and about the revitalization of downtown since this is where we were staying (and how this happened).

This experience was unforgettable from start to finish in their 165 acre property. We kicked off the day with a short ride on Jafar, a stunning, gentle giant weighing nearly 3,000 pounds. ( love at first sight) After taking some amazing photos with him, he happily stayed nearby and spent the rest of the day with us. From there, we met several other camels and hopped on the tram, where more adventures were to be had . Along the way, we encountered so many incredible animals, more camels, a zedonk, llamas, alpacas, and miniature horses. One of the highlights was feeding Thorn, their adorable pet porcupine,grapes she was just the sweetest little girl. We also got to see New Guinea singing dogs (so cute!) and Ambien, their 20-year-old sloth, who was just as amazing to see in person as you'd imagine. Feeding the alpacas and llamas carrots was such a fun, hands-on experience. As if that wasn't enough, four friendly Ridgeback dogs casually joined us on the tram, roaming freely and adding even more charm to the day. Every animal we encountered was gentle, well cared for and clearly loved . I truly can't say enough wonderful things about this experience it was pure joy from beginning to end. If you've never met a camel, Ilama, or alpaca, you're missing out. These gentle creatures will absolutely fill your heart. I'm already looking forward to going back again soon. I didn't want the day to end . This is one adventure you don't want to miss it's truly an overload of joy! "LIVE LIFE WITH LOVE & LAUGHTER" ~PEACE JODY~

We were amazed by how up close and personal we could get with the camels and the other animals. The safari tram tour was informative and much more engaging than anticipated as well. We had plenty of opportunities to see the animals in a natural, spacious environment. The friendly staff were also incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the animals in their care. They shared interesting facts about the area and the animals throughout the tour that made the experience both fun and educational. This was far better than your average zoo... it felt much more interactive and authentic. One of the biggest highlights is the location itself. It truly feels like a backcountry adventure, and it's hard to believe you're such a short drive from the Las Vegas Strip. We also did the UTV tour, which took us down to the Virgin River and deeper into the surrounding desert landscape. The scenery was stunning, and I couldn't believe we had just been in the middle of Vegas. What a great experience!

My friend and I had the most incredible experience kayaking out of Willow Beach to the Emerald Caves, and I genuinely cannot say enough good things about this team. From the moment we arrived, everything felt organized, welcoming, and thoughtfully run. As a first-time kayaker, I was a little nervous--but that disappeared almost instantly thanks to how clearly everything was explained and how patient and encouraging the staff were. Blair was absolutely amazing--friendly, knowledgeable, and just one of those people who makes you feel at ease right away. And Wolfe (his adorable dog!) completely stole my heart. It honestly added such a fun, personal touch to the whole experience. The rest of the staff were just as fantastic--super attentive, upbeat, and clearly passionate about what they do. The trip itself? Unreal. The water at Willow Beach is stunning, and paddling into the Emerald Caves felt like something out of a dream. The views, the calmness, the whole atmosphere--it was the perfect mix of adventure and peace. What really stood out to me was how safe and comfortable they made me feel the entire time.

You can tell they genuinely care about their guests having a great experience. 10/10, beyond worth it, and I would book with them again in a heartbeat.

I noticed there weren't a lot…read moreof reviews on overnight (two day) rafting trip, so I wanted to show some pictures and give a good overview. My dad and I went on this trip We booked this trip just a few months ago, after finding this is the only rafting company that has just a two-day paddle rafting tour. All others were 4, 8, or more days. We found out that the Hualapai tribe has the only road that leads down to the bottom of the canyon that isn't at the very start of the canyon, or end of the canyon (where you end your ride). So you can essentially "jump" on the river mid-canyon and you raft 53 miles to the end of the canyon, where you exit. There is a one day tour done by this company that is NOT paddling, but just riding in a motorized boat. They go the whole 53 miles in one day. They start and end at the same place we did, we just stop halfway (around 32 miles) to sleep for the night. We obviously go slower because we have to paddle the first 13 miles. You will have rapids and paddle for the first 13 miles of the trip. Once you complete those 13 miles (about 7-8 rapids), you will tether up to a motorized boat and be towed the other 20 miles to camp (with no rapids). Trust me -- it's hot and exhausting, so you will be ready to be towed! Day two is being towed all day. No more paddling, no more rapids. I highly suggest getting a room the night before the trip at the lodge (on the website). But BEWARE the lodge is literally right beside a very active train track. So it's loud throughout the night with train horns. Do what you will with that. Ear plugs? Ambien? Whatever suits you. But it's definitely the best place to stay the night before. They have a nice little restaurant in the lodge to grab dinner. I really liked the stew and fry bread, but they have a nice selection of other items. The ride down to the river is only about an hour, and pretty fun. You go on a bus (no air conditioning, but windows open and it's early in the day, so it's not hot at all), and the drivers will inform you about things you see and the history of the Hualapai tribe who owns the land. Once you get to the river, they will assign you a boat and captain, and you will get your life jacket and helmet on (both required). You put your things in a big red dry bag about 3 foot tall. I would say you have one dry bag for every two ppl. You will hit a rapid right when you take off, which is pretty fun! Better learn how to row as a group quick. Ha! Our captains were Cody and Scott, both who were excellent at guiding our groups through the rapids. There is a supply boat that will follow with your dry bags, tables for dinner, food supplies, etc Not even one person fell off either of our boats on our trip . We had lots of big rapids, but great captains who guided us through safely! Remember there are only 7-8 total rapids, and they all happen in the first 13 miles. So enjoy the "crazy adventure" at the beginning, because you won't get more rapids the rest of the day or next day! It is HOT, so make sure to have your water bottle and ample sunscreen. And a hat to block the sun. We stopped at a beach (not a camping park, just a Sandy beach along the River) for the night. There is no electricity, no running water, and no porta potties. They do setup a "bathroom" on the beach that is a can with a toilet seat lid on it. Not luxurious, but it's setup in a private area, and gets the job done! You pick your campsite, and they provide the sleeping bags, pad for the bags to lay on, and tent (if you want it). It was BEAUTIFUL. And I am not an "outdoor" sleeper. But the stars and the sound of the river, and the breeze. It was wonderful! Make sure to stay up until about 10pm to see a SKY full of stars! They make an amazing dinner for you of steak, mashed potato and salad. Even more delicious after a tiring day!! Sodas are also available! The next morning, they will have eggs, bacon, coffee (bring your own cup), cereal, fruit --- a fantastic breakfast. You get towed about 4.5-5 hours that day (stopping for lunch), and then stop at the end of the canyon at the first exit road there is (53 miles later!). It's a lengthy ride back (2.5 hours), and you maybe in an air conditioned van, or on the bus. We got the vans today, so were pretty comfy. We booked another night at the lodge, and ate at the restaurant again, and had the stew!! Overall it was an amazing experience. Truly one you can't get anywhere else. Because the tribe owns this part of the river and the ONLY access road, it is the most unique way to see the bottom of the canyon. Cody, Scott and Dale were absolutely out of this world in knowledge and service . Very kind, helpful and taking care of every need (and taking lots of pictures!).
