Itinerary
The West Sedona Canyon Tour area is about 8 miles west of Sedona. Make your own way to the departure point and from there, you will be taken to the trailhead in a 15-passenger van. The 3-hour tour begins when you arrive at the trailhead. This is the outback of the West Sedona Valley, where over 40 movies have been filmed over the years. There is over a hundred miles of trails to choose from, which provides your guide with the opportunity to customize each tour based on the age, interests and skill levels of the group. You’ll be awestruck by a view of the Verde Valley from the top of Skeleton Bone Mountain, over 800 feet above the valley floor. And don’t be surprised if some antelope run alongside you as you drive along the valley floor! For your safety and comfort, wear closed-toed shoes, long pants, and bring your sunglasses. Also, bring your camera; the views are spectacular!

5Our guide Tom was...
Our guide Tom was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area and the species of plants and animals that habitat the area. His energy and enthusiasm for his job made the experience even better. We would highly recommend booking your ATV trip with Arizona ATV Adventures Tour-Sedona.
5An Unforgettable ATV Adventure in Sedona!
An Unforgettable ATV Adventure in Sedona! Mechelle and I had an absolutely incredible time on our ATV tour! The breathtaking views of Sedona’s red rocks and canyons were simply unforgettable. The equipment was well-maintained, and the entire experience was exciting, fun, and comfortable, even for those with limited ATV experience. Our guide, Tom, was fantastic! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt safe and confident throughout the adventure. He shared interesting information about the area, offered helpful riding tips, and made the experience even more enjoyable. From the beautiful scenery to the outstanding hospitality, this was definitely one of the highlights of our Sedona vacation. Mechelle and I made some wonderful memories, and we would highly recommend this adventure—especially if you’re lucky enough to have Tom as your guide! A Few Helpful Tips: Be prepared to get dusty—and I mean really dusty! We highly recommend wearing long sleeves and pants for added protection. We brought our own gloves, and the tour company provided face masks. We also purchased nose filters from Amazon, which gave us an extra layer of protection from the dust. One tip we’re especially glad to share: bring towels or something to cover your car seats afterward. You’ll definitely appreciate having them for the ride back!
5Great ATV experience in Sedona
Great way to spend 1/2 day if you’d like to see Sedona red rocks, have fun on ATVs and get a little dusty. Our tour guides were great. Our guide Jordan was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and funny. He had a great energy about him that made the trip even more enjoyable. Would recommend to anyone looking to do in the area more than just hiking and shopping.
5Fun ride with beautiful views
This was such an incredible experience. Our guides Jordan and Tom were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful, and patient. It was my first time driving an ATV and they explained everything and helped me feel comfortable. The views were unbelievable. Would absolutely recommend this and we will do it again next time we are in Sedona.
5Great Trip and Experience
Great trip and better than I expected. Our guide Tom was super outgoing and very knowledgeable. Not only did we get the ride itself but we received lessons in local history, geology, botany and ethnobotany. I would recommend this trip to anyone looking to have a great time in Sedona.
5Fun Way to See a Lot of the Sights
Tom and the crew did an excellent job of showing us the beautiful sights and providing useful and interesting information. Each stop included photo ops, history, a bit of natural science, humor, and enough time to take it all in. They were focused on safety and took us across miles of the park and over different terrain. The ATV was easy and fun to ride. We were riding double on the ATV. We're glad we did the tour and would do it again next time!

About Sedona
Sedona is an Arizona town surrounded by red sandstone buttes and canyons, a landscape of rock formations, hiking trails and creekside cottonwoods.
Sedona lies at the mouth of Oak Creek Canyon in northern Arizona, at about 1,300 metres, surrounded by red sandstone buttes and spires with names such as Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock and Courthouse Butte. The rock gets its colour from iron oxide, and it glows orange and crimson at sunset. Many believe certain spots hold spiritual energy, called vortexes, and the town has a New Age following.
