“Halle was our guide and she was great!! She was knowledgeable about the area, the plants, the wildlife. It was fun getting to know her on the ride there and back. She has a passion for the outdoors and it truly shows. The hike itself was just beautiful, nothing like we have back home in Michigan. I wish we would've had time to see more.”

3.Valley of Fire Guided Hike with Drinks and Snacks

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 548 reviews · 4 - 6 hours · from $129

Leave Las Vegas by small-group van for a guided hike in Valley of Fire State Park. Choose an easy walk, a moderate scramble, or a difficult route to see red-rock formations, ancient petroglyphs, and tucked-away arches. Guides such as Sarah, Nick, Matthew, Josh, and Halle lead the hikes. Snacks, drinks, and round-trip transport are included.

“Everything about the tour was great (from pickup to drop off)! Matthew was excellent! I went with him on the hard tour and loved it! We went off trail and on some physically challenging routes. All of which I enjoyed. I like going off the beaten path where the sites are usually more interesting, quiet, and undisturbed. Water and snacks were provided and plentiful. Matthew was knowledgable with the area and history, and pointed out things that only and experienced eye would notice. One of the best hikes I've been on. On a cooler day (my hike was 105 in July) I could have explored with Matthew all day.”

“Adam is the best tour guide you could ask for. He was a bouncing ball of infectious energy that had us happy to challenge ourselves in the valley of fire. He was happy to share stories, and his amazing finds from himself and his other tours. He wasn't afraid to say he didn't know something, but you could tell he would know for the next tour. He made our visit a one of a kind experience and was happy to do so, he was ready to make the trip whatever we wanted, just had to say. If only we could take him to every park. 5 stars is not enough…”
