5Great hike & informative
Jay was excellent and very knowledgeable. He had everything ready for our hiking adventure and he’s very patience. The hike was easy to moderate. I highly recommend this tour and hopefully you get Jay as your tour guide.

5Beautiful Hike!

5Great desert hike and guide.
Steve Hill was my guide and he did a terrific job. He knows a lot about the surrounding area and was very helpful when I asked questions. I would absolutely book another tour with him.
5Our tour guide was Henry....
Our tour guide was Henry. We learned a lot about the trail and nature. Had so much fun, he gave us a back pack with water, we took a few quick breaks as needed. Took really cool photos and had a great time. I would rate the difficulty of this tour about a 5 or 6 out of ten. That is because you have to be careful of the rocks on the trail and a few tiny inclines. But you can totally this one, the 2 hours went by fast. I’m gonna be more adventurous on my next visit and do one of the longer hikes.
5Hiking the desert
Great hiking Experience! Henry was awesome, full of knowledge and goodies( Gatorade, water, snacks and wlectrolytes. I would recommend tour and Henry.. He went with the flow of the hiker, I’m inexperienced and so he tools breaks when I felt winded, he made sure I was good.

About Phoenix
Phoenix is Arizona's desert capital, a sprawling Sonoran Desert city of saguaro cacti, museums, mountain parks and year-round sunshine.
Phoenix spreads across the Salt River Valley in the Sonoran Desert, ringed by mountains and dotted with saguaro cacti. Its name recalls the ancient Hohokam canals on which the settlers built. Camelback Mountain, a red sandstone peak shaped like a kneeling camel, rises in the east, and South Mountain Park is among the largest city parks in the United States. The Desert Botanical Garden shows cacti and desert flowers.
Top-ranked sights in Phoenix: Camelback Mountain, Scottsdale Fashion Square , Tonto National Forest.
