Umm, can I give 6 stars on here? We just spent a day with Jen and Safak on the 4-in-1 adventure tour - ATV, land sailing, mountain biking and kayaking. It is definitely a "detour" from the hustle and bustle of Vegas, and EVERYONE should do it. Jen picked us up right on the strip on their coach passenger van (super comfy) and took us out to the ATV location. Fed us breakfast. We met up with Safak, who not only taught us how to maneuver our ATVs over terrain, sand and rolling paths, but was a great tour guide pointing out neat things in the valley. There was no wind today, so we didn't get to land sail, however, Jen still set the sails up so that we can sit and push eachother around, allowing more photo ops with the land sails. No wind and no sail meant more time for ATV! We didn't complain because the ATV ride was pretty epic. After lunch (we were dropped off at Subway for our own lunch while Jen and Safak went to switch our the equipment), we headed over to the Lake Mead Recreational area to start our mountain biking tour. They will gear the difficulty of the route to your experience as bikers. Since we were all novices, they chose a down hill path with the most amazing views of Lake Mead and the valley. It was incredible. Safak never rushed us on the path and allowed us to stop for photo ops, which we did plentifully. We biked to the entrance of Hoover Dam and got a nice and brief tour of the dam with a bit of history of when and how the dam is built. The tour was quick and sweet, as we needed to head back down to Lake Mead for the most relaxing kayaking experience ever during the sunset.
I'm an avid tourist, and this is the best your I have ever experienced. Thank you, Detour Vegas!
A couple of tips- bring change of clothes. You'll get dirty/dusty during the ATV-land sailing portion, and wet during kayaking. We brought track jackets and swim suits. Jen and Safak graciously took us to area la where we could change.
Jen and Safak are awesome and chilled hosts. At no point during the tour were we rushed, and they even offered to stay as log as we wanted. We only left Lake Mead because we had dinner reservations.
Want a tour of the Las Vegas valley? Do this! You will NOT regret it, and I promise you'll find yourself on YELP giving an epic review as I because you're going to just love it that much. Cheers.
