This was such a fun time!! If you want a jam packed guided tour, I highly recommend! Our guide was hilarious and showed us a lot. More creatures are out in the morning so go early of you want to see them or later if you don't! read more

Did the Tom Car tour and it was AWESOME! The scenery was beautiful. The location was great for lunch after but the best part was our guide, Jim. He was so knowledgeable and really just amazing. Book yours today! read more

Had a great tour yesterday with Derik and Brad. Loved that we were able to drive the Tomcars and the scenery was beautiful. Highly recommend this tour read more

We just got back today from our Scottsdale AZ trip and I couldn't wait to post my comment on this unique desert tour. We decided very late the night before to attempt to book an am tour on the following morning. I left a voice message around 5:30 pm stating that I knew it was last minute, but I had wandered if there was any chance they still had any openings for the next mornings tour. I figured I had missed the boat on this because of our indecision. (Their office closed @ 5:30) I was very surprised when Steve returned my call around 7 pm to fit us in and set the details of our tour! Our guide Alex was very friendly, entertaining, interesting and knowledgeable. Your guide will take many pictures of your group throughout your tour which are posted to the web for you to access! They provide bandannas to cover your face to make your tour more enjoyable. Who would have thought you may kick up a little dust while you drive Tomcars through a desert?? All and all a great time! Great customer service! We would do another of their tours in a heartbeat next time in AZ!! read more

Brick was our guide this morning and it was an amazing tour. Personally being a tour guide myself I was very impressed with how the tour was played out. Full of lots of information! The scenery is unreal and they let you get the full out west experience! Thanks Desert Wolf Tours we will be back! read more

Amazing fun day!! An absolute must if you are in the area. Derek is the gem of this place. Extremely knowledgeable about all things desert. We not only had a blast, we also learned so much about plants, animals, and tomcars. As if that wasn't enough he's also a terrific photographer! Derek took us to the most amazing scenic views. This was an adventure we won't be forgetting soon. I highly recommend you don't miss out on this excursion read more

Showed up for a corporate "team building" activity with my usual cynical low expectations. Greg & Jason OVERCAME all of my objections to hanging out with co-workers, being outside in the summer and getting dirty on purpose! All SOLVED when I slid behind the wheel of the fun-machine and hit the open road under the starry sky. Total of 4 seats per vehicle and they provide time to swap out drivers so every licensed driver can have shot at a little rough riding. They mix in a little educational info on the Sonoran desert, some fun factoids about life in general and just enough walking around to feel like we were "doing something". I'm a FAN and this Fall I will be booking it as a family activity for my teens & twenty-something kids who typically show up cynical and with low expectations of my "Family Day" Activities. Looking to Greg & Jason to win them over! read more

We went on the 8:30 am Sonoran desert tour this morning. Alex was a great tour guide so was his colleague. Our Tomcat broke down soon into the adventure. The guides troubleshooted and last ditch attempt it started up again! Crazy! It was bumpy and steep terrain. We felt like we were driving sideways and it could tip. It was like a roller coaster! We had our 5yr old son with us and he was having a blast bouncing around in the back due to the bumps and driving through the shallow river. He handled hiking around the rocks just fine. I think a little younger of a child may have a hard time hiking up. Definitely recommend wearing sunglasses, hat, warm clothes, and scarf or cloth to cover face to protect from the dust. It's in the 40s most of the trip. If you're not used to cold weather then you better bundle up! It was quite a rugged road but well traveled. It was beautiful and serene. We stopped off a couple times to take pics. They were quick to help others with their vehicles too. It was a lot of fun. I highly recommend this trip. The guides are funny, professional, helpful, and very familiar with the area. read more

Great way to see Arizona desert. Our guide was great and come one: you get to drive an authentic Tom Car up and down and all around off-roading. Three hour excursion, beautiful sights and a bit dusty led to visitors that enjoyed their one of a kind experience. Highly recommended. Ask for Micheal, awesome guide. read more

Our group of ten (family) had a great experience. Derek did a fantastic job on the trails. I learned more about flora and fauna than I thought I would. The experience was fun and worth the price. If you go ask for Derek. read more

Had an awesome time with Derrick (Derek? Sorry spelling isn't my strong suit) today. Super knowledgeable about local flora and fauna. Cactus tastes like unrippened kiwi. I'll fight you if you disagree. read more

We were in Scottsdale, AZ with a large group of girls. I wanted to do something adventurous and see the desert. Desert Wolf Tours came highly rated by Yelp and other sites, so we booked online. I can say out of the pool parties, fancy dinners and overall excitement Scottsdale has to offer - this was by far my favorite portion of the trip!! (And my gfs - and we are from NYC!) I can promise you, the tour will not disappoint and you will not get better pictures!! Hunter helped us book the tour and was overly accommodating. He made booking, planning and executing this trip incredibly easy. As to our tour guide, Sergeant, if we could give him 100 stars we would. Sgt, was literally amazing. We learned about the desert (very cool), we drove the Tomcars for hours and took about 3 photo shoots. He was always helpful and incredibly fun. Especially in the heat and driving military grade Tomcars having someone there to keep the energy up and confidence going thru the hard terrain, Sgt. was above and beyond. I cannot recommend this tour or rave about Sergeant enough. Great trip, very professional and safe. Highly recommend!! read more

Jumping Cholla is not a tasty desert treat, but this TomCar adventure was a great way to add more heat to our Honeymoon! As newlyweds we chose Desert Wolf Tours because we wanted to explore the desert off road in a vehicle we could drive! The TomCar is a impressive ride, it's rough, rugged and radically exciting! Our new buddy (aka - tour guide Beau) made this adventure educational and over the top! His knowledge of survival tactics is as important as the respectable kind way he shares his desert experiences and his hopes for future wildlife encounters. Beau is a true adventurer! Here's hoping that Gila Monster crosses your path soon! read more

If you would like to experience the adrenaline rush and stomach knots at level earth, Desert Wolf Tours is for you. I did the Sonoran Desert Tomcar tour in Dec 2015. Each and every minute was fun, safe and sound, and breathtaking. The adventure packs in scenic landscapes, learning about desert survival, and, of course, the incredible experience of driving the Tomcar which has the most amazing suspension! For all the rocky up, down and uneven surface, I felt like I was on a queen's seat! Must try adventure. Read more here. http://bit.ly/1OEHTd2 read more

Spencer and Tod did an amazing job during the Machine Gun and Suppressor gun range. Tod did a great job with gun safety and explaining each guns background. Spencer helped with explaining stance, and correct form when shooting. Overall an amazing experience! read more

An awesome 3 hour Tomcat trail adventure with guides Derik and Mike. Challenging but safe and really fun. We are not off roaders in our daily lives but we will be telling all our friends and family they HAVE to do this. Picked this tour because we didn't want to have to wear someone else's helmet and wanted more time behind the wheel than most of the other tours. We got so much more out of the tour than we expected. The scenery was lovely and the guides knowledgeable and super fun. read more

This was the best way to end a quick trip to Arizona! Our tour guides Derik and Chris were awesome! The TomCars are designed for exactly what you do on the tour. I loved the driving through the rough terrain, but the stops for pictures and cool facts were just as awesome! read more

Unreal experience with my family visiting Scottsdale this Thanksgiving! There were 4 of us and we tried the shooting and driving experience. Our guides name was Jim and if you want the feeling of no stress and just shooting guns with a hell of a dude then I highly recommend Jim. Highly trained man of our Military that was extremely down to Earth and fun to be around. The tour was super cool, if you are looking to drive 30 mph in the desert to get to the shooting range, I do not recommend. However, it was very nice to drive in some sticky areas with great views of the desert. We got to the range and Jim walked us through the history of every gun we chose to shoot and then we just let it rip. He was super fun to be around and as long as you respect his rules on the range, he will respect you. Highly recommend Desert Wolf Tours and if you want a hell of a guide, then choose Jim. read more

My husband and I went on the Desert Wolf tom car tour with Zach and shooting experience with Hunter. Zach was very friendly and he was great about showing us around and answering our questions. It was fun to drive the tom car, enjoy the scenery and lean tons of interesting facts about the desert. Hunter was informative and helpful with teaching us how to properly shoot the firearms. We would highly recommend Desert Wolf excursions. read more

Had a day free while at a conference in Scottsdale so set this up for me and my wife. Glad we did it. Not the best time of year to see animals but the desert was beautiful and the drive was fun and exciting. You need some muscle to handle the vehicle and there is allot of dust but the cars are amazingly stable and able and DWTs provide you with a great dust protector for your face. Kevin was a great guide and answered all our questions knowledgeably. Great trip if you want to get out into the desert. read more

Desert Wolf Tours - Ready...Go! - Tours Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Wow, what a fun experience! My father and two brothers traveled to Scottsdale to celebrate my father's 70th birthday! When you think of Scottsdale, what comes to mind? Golf...Spring training baseball...Good food...Hiking...but what about shooting? What about driving out into the desert and learning how to properly operate firearms? We scheduled two sessions - the BOOM adventure as well as the Top Guns adventure - and we had a BLAST! In our morning session which was the BOOM adventure we learned how to shoot rifles - AK-47, AR-15, the famous MOSIN that kicks like a mule, and a few others. In the afternoon session we learned about other guns and handguns - how to properly operate them, and most importantly, how to safely operate them. After completing these two sessions I can honestly say I have a much better education on weapons and understand how to use them. Boy it was fun and we can't wait to do it again. What made the day so special? Not the famous cowtown shooting facility (although that was pretty cool), but our instructor - ZEV! Talk about a guy that has the depth of knowledge you would want when learning about firearms. Talk about a guy that taught us how to properly operate the weapons. And not to be forgotten, just a fun guy to spend a day with at the shooting range. Would highly recommend this to anyone. read more

Best tour in Scottsdale. William and hunter were the best, they made my bachelor party a complete success. Could not recommend this tour and team anymore read more

Desert Wolf Tours was one full morning of fun. Our guide Derek had a great personality and it felt like we were hanging out with an old friend the entire time. Derek made sure everyone was having fun and took time to answer any and all questions. He was very knowledgeable about desert animals and plant life and kept it interesting. The ride was a blast. Would definately recomend. read more

My husband and I visited Phoenix a few weeks ago and went on the Half-Day Tomcar ATV Tour. It was hands down the coolest experience we have ever had. We got to see such beautiful parts of the state that we would have never seen if it weren't for this tour. Parts of the drive were super intimidating and the Tomcar took a bit to get use to but we both had such an amazing time. Our tour guide, Derik, was so helpful and a wealth of knowledge when explaining the various places we visited. It is definitely a bumpy ride and they don't provide helmets (which we were totally okay with) but if you want to have fun, get dusty and have a thrill then book this trip! read more

Had a great time on this tour with Derek and Chris. Stopped three times for water, nature talks, and to switch drivers. Some great off-roading. It was definitely dusty, but an absolute blast! Only suggestion would be to bring some snacks, nothing is provided and apparently off-roading through the desert makes you really hungry! read more

My boyfriend and I wanted to do something a little adventurous for our anniversary so we decided to go on an off-roading tour. Our guide was very nice and extremely knowledgeable about the desert and the area. He pointed out different things along the way and even let us taste some of the local cuisine naturally growing in the desert. I've live in AZ my whole life and I was able to learn and experience quite a bit. There were also plenty of stops to take a break and stretch and switch drivers if you'd like. We drove TomCars and they were a little bumpy, but if you've ever driven off-road you'll be fine and even if you haven't you'll be okay. However, lol, after driving the TomCar our regular car felt like we were driving the biggest most luxurious Cadillac money could buy. Still, nothing on the trail is too crazy and you can see beautiful views from the trail. I would highly recommend for both locals and people visiting AZ. read more

Kevin was awesome for the sunset tomcar tour! He was very knowledgable and always made sure our group was having a blast! Definitely recommend this to everyone! read more

We went out with Chris, our guide, on an ATV tour today, and it was wonderful. From the very beginning Chris was helpful and polite and showed us all the sights of the Arizona desert. We even saw a diamondback rattler in the first 15 minutes on the road! Chris took us up to some Indian ruins and to a cool turquoise and copper mine. We went on some great off road trails and crossed a 3 foot deep river. At the end, Chris and Zev (the owner) gave us a great training class on firearms then we shot glocks and assault rifles. I even hit the explosive target at the end! It was a great day of fun in the sun. I would highly recommend you look up Desert Wolf Tours if you're in the Phoenix area. read more

This is dirty fun - you actually get really dirty! But its a great time and the TomCars are fun to tool around in. The desert is lovely and lots of good picture ops. We went on the afternoon tour which was perfect in March but later I would assume the morning would be better. Good info and nice way to spend half a day. Its a jaunt out to Cave Creek but not too bad - about 40 minutes from Old Scottsdale. Much easier if you are already north side. Go and enjoy! read more

Went for a company outing and it was amazing! Derrick did not disappoint as a tour guide and overall person in general. Was a great experience! I highly recommend it! read more

What a really fun day and our tour guides Kevin and Tom were great! The Tom cars were in great shape and we always felt safe. So glad we made time for this! read more

Hands down best time I've ever had in Arizona! Our tour guide was Tom and he was awesome. He was Perfect for the group we had, 7 adults. He was hilarious and informative about all things az. The cars themselves are so fun, way better than the atv tours I've been in. Definitely going back next year read more

If you think you'll love this tour, you probably will! Kevin was an A+ tour guide. It's a fun and safe adventure for both kids and adults. Be prepared to get dirty. It was comforting to have a guide carrying a gun, just in case of a sick or hungry coyote. You learn some basic desert survival skills, and if you are adventurous in trying new foods, you'll likely enjoy the jumping cholla, an edible cactus. The scenery was amazing. Use caution if you have any type of back, neck or shoulder issues, even minor ones. Be prepared to be a little stiff. Hunter, the person who booked our adventure, was very professional. Take the tour, be careful, you won't regret it! read more

Great trip. Highly recommend it. The tour guides were knowledgeable and entertaining. Everyone gets a chance to drive if they want.

We had a large group (60+) going into the desert and I think everyone had a good time -even the car that took a wrong turn. It was slow going at first but as people got comfortable with the vehicles (Tomcar & RZR), things started to pick up. We made a few stops on the way and learned about different flora in the area. I was an idiot and the only one in the group that didn't bring any sort of eyewear. Tanner was an absolute sweetheart and offered up his sunglasses for me. Man that would've been a rough ride if I didn't have those. So - advise: bring glasses, hell even ski goggles, if you don't want to see dust the entire ride. Speaking of which, you will get dusty so dress accordingly. This isn't a time to wear your Sunday best. All the guides (Hunter, Alaska, and Sarge) were incredibly helpful and genuinely cared whether or not we were enjoying ourselves. read more

Loved this!!! It was so fun to explore the Sonoran Desert this way. Tanner was an excellent guide. I would highly recommend this tour & him as a guide. It was much more than I had expected. read more

We did this tour with a group of girls for my friends bachelorette party. It was a blast and everyone really enjoyed it! There were a few others in our group including a family with kids and an older couple and everyone had a great time. Chris was our tour guide and he was excellent. Lots of great information and interesting facts about cactus. The tour itself was fun and the girls really enjoyed driving the big tomcar atv. I did not drive the tomcar, I was simply a passenger and it was so nice to take in the view. A must do if you are visiting Scottsdale! The weather was perfect the day we took the tour! read more

Great fun and very informative! Tanner was a great tour guide. If your are in AZ it's a great way to have some fun and learn about the geographical surroundings. read more

My sister-in-law and I took out the kids in our families (6 kids ages 7-15). Derick and Chris were our guides and the whole experience was extremely professional. We had a great time. They taught us about the desert flora and fauna. They were also very quick to respond when I got stuck trying to ascend a steep climb, and we were on our way quickly. I highly recommend this company, and especially Derick and Chris!! read more

I booked this tour last minute through Southwest Airlines vacations. I would recommend this tour as a highlight of any vacation in the Phoenix, AZ area. Steve, the guy who keeps all the scheduling arranged was amazing. He worked with us to get just the time we needed to fit in our schedule. Alex, our guide was the most affable young man (to me he is). He made everyone feel special (he praised our driving skills), was very knowledgable of the local history, as well as knowing his way around in the desert. This unique tour which allows one to follow a tour guide as one drives a dune buggy like vehicle over very rugged desert dirt paths and river washouts. We stopped at ancient indian forts learned how to survive in the desert (never a concern) get some fresh air and many laughs. A must do for anyone visiting the area. read more
