Our tour guide never introduced herself but immediately told us about the helmet/bandana charge (which we still find shocking isn't built into the price) and asked if we wanted to upgrade from trikes to Slingshots. We agreed to the upgrade (having always wanted to drive Slingshots) to which she said they don't accept credit cards. How do you ask for a $100 per Slingshot upgrade fee and not accept credit cards? We had some cash and did the upgrade, at which point we started our "tour". Our first stop was an Albertson's because the guide needed Tylenol. We did stop at the Starbucks inside so the stop wasn't entirely a waste of time for us. The next stop was a small parking lot near the entrance to the trail system. The guide fed chipmunks that populate the area to attract them to a stone wall by the lot, which was cute. She tried to give us info on the history of Red Rock Canyon but didn't seem to know much. When we asked if Red Rock Canyon was state-owned land her answer was "yup, federally owned". What??? We passed right by the entrance (we had no idea we wouldn't be driving the 13 mile trail loop) and on to a town called Blue Diamond for a stop at a very nice cafe there. We used their bathroom facilities so felt compelled to buy something, and stayed for approximately 15 minutes, then left for the ride back. In hindsight, I guess I should have done my due diligence and called to ask about entrance into Red Rock Canyon since their website is VERY vague, but you don't know what you don't know. We found driving the Slingshots a lot of fun but Vegas Trike Adventures is NOT worth the money.
