Attention: The travel time to the trailhead is about 45 min from our office and made note of in the total time. Again, this is our office where we will be meeting guest and preparing them for their adventure in one of our 4x4s
This is the 4x4 trail you will be using to seeing the desert and all of its glory. From distinct wildlife from wild horses and rams to Native American Petroglyphs this trail boasts it all.
This is the famous saloon that has been operating over 100 years in Nevada. Chalked full of history and original interior this saloon is a must see. For fans of fallout and Clark Gable you will be rewarded for your journey.
Feel free to stop by this beautiful art installation or just head back to Vegas on your way from the Pioneer Saloon.
At the end of your experience you will meet us back at our office to return all equipment and have deposit refunded.
The ride is bumpy if you have a bad back or neck maybe not for you. The trip it self was fun you got to go your own pace. Saw other vehicles on the trail so that was nice. Loved the old Saloon it was interesting.
The experience is amazing and Jacob gives you plenty of tips.
My wife and I had a great desert trip. Pickup was fine, the instructions and jeep were excellent. It's not what I'd consider a technical off-road experience, but it was great getting away from the chaos of Vegas for a 1/2 day. Highly recommended.
It's an all day adventure! The off roading is not for the weak. It's for the adventurous. You will not be disappointed
Book it! You will not regret it! I would give 10 stars for Jacob. He is, patient, kind, funny and explains everything to do and what not to do. Hands down made this Vegas trip the best!
If I could give Jacob a 10, I would. He made our trip easy from start to finish. He explained everything patiently and instructed us on what to and what not to do. He provided snacks, water and an extra surprise for my birthday! He definitely deserves 10 stars. If you have not done the 5 hour excursion, do it, you will not be disappointed!
This is the best experience available in Vegas. The team are great and the car is awesome! True off road experience, memories forever and crazy sights.
Very well organized and also affordable- the trip was great. So was the burgers at the pioneer saloon, definitely worth a stop! But if you want to spend some time at the saloon, dont spend too much time at the stops along the route..
We rented a Jeep twice from Jake & Mike - once for the 5hr Off-Road Secrets and again for a trip they put together for us. The Jeeps are great, and they are so accommodating to your needs. For the second rental, I gave them a list of everything I wanted to see and they did a route specific to that list. My only tip would be to learn how to use your maps "offline". I didn't know what I was doing so when we lost cell signal, I lost the routes (both times). Make sure you have all that down before you are in the middle of nowhere! Again - not their fault; entirely my fault. I highly recommend them for your Jeep rental or tours! They know all the great places for sightseeing! We will definitely be back again!
My husband and I had an awesome time. It was just us in the Jeep so we were able to go at our own pace. They guys gave us a google map to download with places to see along the route. The trip took almost the entire 5 hours. They were very nice and took the time to explain everything before we left and we felt for the amount it cost it was well worth it! They only thing I think that can be improved is the actual direction to get to the start of the touring area and in case you lose service maybe a rough map of the area. Other than that I would highly recommend this awesome Self Drive Jeep Adventure!
We had a wonderful day / experience doing this day trip. The vehicle was in top shape and made for a very fun ride for all of us. The cliff overlook to see Las Vegas was in short, special. But of course continuing on to the Pioneer Saloon was the main course. We recommend 100%.
Excellent day out, something a bit different from your usual car hire. Where else do you get pointed at the scenery and told to go for it
We had a great time. Jacob was very helpful. He went over everything with us. We had great views, it had rained the day before so we had some nice puddles to go through. He told us about the one view where you are on top of the mountain and you get to see down into Vegas. It was breath taking. We will be coming back again. Thank you Jacob.
Great experience! Staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating. They provide a great route with breathtaking views and a variety of terrain. The jeep was well equipped for our excursion. A+++
Ease of service was the best. Rented the jeep and headed on our way. Avoided the storms all around us and had the perfect 5 hours. Saw a wild horse, ate at a fantastic saloon in ghost town, and saw the 7 magic mountains on way back. Views were amazing! Highly recommend this tour company!!
We had a great time on the 5 hour self guided jeep tour. The jeep is in great condition and perfect for this trail. The route is easy but fun with some great views along the way.
The trip is organised extremely well. The views and offroad experience is great for all levels of driver. The bar at the end is quaint with great history.
This was by far one of my favorite trips I have taken. We celebrated our 20 year wedding anniversary and started our day with a Jeep tour. The sites and experience was well worth it and we have more great memories to add to the many we already have made. If you are looking for an off the grid adventure this is the tour for you.
I liked being able to go at our own pace, not stuck in a line of Jeeps. The Wrangler was in great shape. Jake at the tour company explained how to navigate, air down/up the tires, points of interest along the way, etc. The trail was not too difficult, but nice to see the desert up close and personal. The scenic overlook was a highlight. This trip is just what I was looking for, most other off-road trips seemed to be oriented towards high speed ATV/dune buggy type stuff.
What a great experience and adrenaline rush. We had such a great time, this was everything as advertised and more. Just as the title states Discover It Yourself. Jacob was awesome, took all the time we needed going over everything and made us feel like family. The Jeep was well equipped with navigation, Sirius radio and even water and snacks. We were able to travel at our own pace with plenty of stops along the way to take in all the sights. We're ready to book and telling all our friends. The Richardson's
A great experience and fun time. The family really enjoyed the off reading and scenery. It was great going at our own pace as well. Really recommend it.
Wow! The ease of pick up & drop off of the Jeep was great. The person we dealt with was “Jake” (not from State Farm), he was very nice, informative and enjoyed talking Jeep life with him! He even prepped the Jeep with some decorations & a nice little gift for our Christmas Eve excursion! Only problem we encountered on our Jeep tour was we missed one or two stops because of loss of cell & gps signals (but that is no fault of Jake & “Discover it Yourself Jeep Tours”. The trail was pretty nice. Aired down the tires, started the trail in 2 wheel drive then switched to 4 wheel high a couple of miles in when it got rocky (trail has a lot of loose rocks but nothing too tough). Only had to use 4 wheel low on one section. On the next to the last stop on the trip, the trail was more like a dry river bed than a trail, but because I have a lot of off-road experience it wasn’t too challenging (a beginner or novice might be intimidated by this section). The turn around at the top of this last ridge/overlook was pretty tight (my wife got very nervous on that one). Didn’t encounter any wildlife (my wife was hoping to see some wild horses) but we did see signs they had there recently (horse poop in the middle of the trail, lol). The scenery was fantastic! Definitely lots of cool mountains, Joshua trees & rock formations to photograph. And try to get some video out the front windshield while driving down the trail! Photos just don’t really do justice to what your eyes actually see on this tour! At last stop (“Pioneer Saloon”) we got a burger & baked beans. Food & wait staff were good! I definitely recommend this trip & “Discover it Yourself Jeep Tours” to anyone who wants a great adventure trail riding in the mountains & desert outside Las Vegas!!!
Great experience, fantastic and friendly customer service. Very well planned trip with fantastic scenery and amazing terrain. Coming from the east coast, off-roading in the desert was a total new experience. The vehicles are great, new, clean, great looking and perform well above expectations. This is definitely the way to experience some off roading in the desert. Would do it again 100 times over.
We had a blast on our adventure! Top notch Jeep for off roading that was extremely comfortable to ride in. Great communication before and after with the owner(s). Will definitely be back for another!
We had a great time. Being able to drive the Jeep ourselves gave us the flexibility to be on our schedule. Having the points of interest available in the Google Map meant that we never got lost yet we were on our own with no one else near us.
The self drive trip was a fabulous experience! The vehicle was new and very well equipped. Jake was great in instructing us with directions and things to see and supplied us with snacks and water. Scenery was amazing and would thoroughly recommend this trip!
Our family embarked on a thrilling off-road adventure in a modified Jeep Wrangler through the rugged desert terrain outside of Las Vegas, armed with nothing but detailed map instructions and a sense of adventure. DIY truly had us digging deep to find our inner explorer and connect with the untamed wilderness. Equipped with a capable Jeep Wrangler, we set out from Las Vegas, leaving the city's glitz behind for the raw beauty of the desert. Our party included my wife, two young boys bubbling with excitement, and me—ready to tackle the challenges that lay ahead.The journey began with navigating the initial rocky trails using the detailed map provided. Every turn, every fork in the road, felt like a decision point in our own personal expedition. As we delved deeper into the desert, the landscape transformed into a stunning panorama of towering rock formations and vast expanses of rugged terrain.The real adventure kicked in when we encountered obstacles that demanded teamwork and problem-solving skills. Together, we navigated sandy washes, conquered rocky ascents, and even forded a shallow creek—all while marveling at the sheer beauty and remoteness of our surroundings. The map led us to hidden gems off the beaten path—secluded viewpoints offering sweeping vistas, ancient petroglyphs telling stories of the past, and quiet spots where we could pause and soak in the tranquility of the desert.What made this experience truly special was the feeling of self-reliance and discovery. Without a guide, we relied on our instincts and map-reading skills to chart our course. Our young boys eagerly participated, learning about navigation and wilderness survival along the way.The Jeep Wrangler proved to be the perfect companion, tackling the challenging terrain with ease and providing a comfortable ride for our family. Inside the vehicle, laughter and excitement filled the air as we ventured deeper into the unknown.As the day drew to a close, watching the sun dip below the horizon, we reflected on the triumphs and challenges of our DIY off-road adventure. It wasn't just about conquering the desert—it was about reconnecting with nature, bonding as a family, and tapping into our adventurous spirit.For families seeking a hands-on, immersive experience near Las Vegas, a DIY off-road adventure in a modified Jeep Wrangler is a must-try. It's a chance to unleash your inner explorer, discover hidden treasures, and create unforgettable memories in the heart of the desert wilderness. So grab a map, rev up your engine, and embark on your own off-road journey—it's a decision you won't regret.
Unique experiences in the desert - you must have seen. Enrollment and explanations were very good. Very attentive and friendly young man. I would be happy to come back anytime.
