Amazing tour! Highly recommend taking the trip. Don (our tour guide) was extremely knowledgeable about the place and gave us a memorable tour. Also need to highlight how careful the company was to accommodate us from a safety perspective due to Covid-19.

We initially booked the Jeep tour, but got a call that they were having mechanical issues. We opted for the regular driving tour, and it did not disappoint. Captain Ron was awesome and very knowledgeable about all things! Beautiful tour.

Amazing tour with Ben! Great guide - so informative about the park, history, features, plants and trees, birds and animals. Easy and super efficient way for our family of 6 to see the highlights and get the lay of the land. Comfortable SUV with water and snacks. Drove us to highlights and then we got out to enjoy at our own pace with his guidance. Not at all intrusive, felt like fast friends. Cap Rock, Skull Rock, Cholla Cactus garden, Keys view at sunset - amazing!! Ben paced the tour to our needs and we really covered a lot of terrain but had time to relax and enjoy it all. He was great with our 13 y/o son and had lots to share with the adults too. We all learned a ton! And had a blast! Covid safe too. Highly recommend! He sparked a passion in my son for bouldering! Thank you Big Wheel Tours!

I couldn't ask for a better review. It sounds like your experience was exactly what I intended when I started this company 22 years ago. Ben is our newest guide so I am happy to hear that he is carrying on the Big Wheel tradition.
