Scooter Car Tour of Red Rock Canyon with Transport from Las Vegas
Las Vegas, United States of America
Explore Las Vegas' best-kept secret, Red Rock Canyon, in a fun and unique way! This 3.5-hour guided scooter car tour will take you through this breathtaking national conservation area, which is a favorite among Vegas locals. At the visitor center, learn about local plants and wildlife before following your guide on the scenic 13-mile (21-km) loop. Admire the rugged scenery and enjoy free time for some light hiking on your own. Hotel pickup and drop-off, bottled water and entrance fees are included.
Please note: price displayed is based per scooter; if traveling

individual scooters, select the number of scooters you will need.
This fun, exciting scooter car tour will take you through Red Rock Canyon, a network of scenic canyons and surreal rock formations inside the Red Rock National Conservation Area. After hotel pickup in Las Vegas, your guide will drive you to the Summerlin area right near Red Rock, where you'll be assigned your scooter car, receive a safety overview, and take some practice runs. These easy-to-operate cars have no clutches or gears, and don't require a special license.
Aboard your 2-person, 3-wheel scooter car, follow your guide approximately 5 miles (8 km) through the Mojave Desert on a paved road and arrive at Red Rock Canyon. Stop first at the visitor's center, where you'll learn about the park’s flora and fauna, wildlife and native Paiute Indians who once lived off this land.
Next, your guide will lead the pack of scooter cars on the scenic 13-mile (21-km) loop through the canyon. Enjoy unobstructed 360-degree views of the landscape; see where professional rock climbers from all over the world come to climb; and keep your eyes out for wild burros, tortoises, jack rabbits and other wildlife.
At designated stops along the way, you’ll have time to switch drivers and explore on your own. Your guide will happily recommend great trails for you to hike, depending on your desired difficulty level. One great spot is High Point Overlook; at nearly 5,000 feet (1,524 meters) in elevation, this lookout point offers amazing views of the southern part of the Las Vegas Valley with almost 70 miles (113 km) of visibility looking out toward Los Angeles.
You'll spend approximately 3.5 hours driving and exploring on foot, and will cover at least 35 miles (56 km) round-trip from the start point in Summerlin. After your tour, you’ll be taken back to your Las Vegas hotel.
Please note: price displayed is based per scooter; if traveling
in a party of 2 please only select 1 traveler. If you wish to have
individual scooters, select the number of scooters you will need. In order to operate the vehicles, customers must be able to speak and understand basic English for safety purposes.
Picked up from hotel and just fun from then on._br/_ Shown how to drive the 2 seat scooter and then we were off._br/_ On the highway to start and then on to Red Rock Canyon loop._br/_ A few stops... very informative guides and plenty of cold water to drink.

Had a blast, my husband drove the scooter and I sat in the back. We made the stops to view the mountains, dessert etc, the guide was fun and knowledgeable. I don't recommend this with kids. Even if you have a teenager, they have to be able to drive a motorized vehicle. But the tour was definitely well worth it, there is more to do besides just gambling when you go to Vegas and this tour was one of those.

Great fun scooting along through the Red Rock Canyon in these little vehicles. The staff is wonderful, extremely helpful in getting everyone comfortable and scooter educated before the ride begins. And on the road they are funny and entertaining. We had a great day doing something I never imagined we would do. Thanks for a memorable experience!

What a great way to spend the day! My husband and I had a fantastic time. Our two tour guides were really engaging and fun to be with as well. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous. At time these little scooters actually go quite fast!

Best tour in Las vegas
Review by: Jeffrey R, January 2018
This tour was amazing! I was nervous at first but once I got a feel for the little car, I loved it. One piece of advice - bring chapstick! Your lips get so dry in the canyon.

The Scooter Car Tour of Red Rock Canyon was fantastic. Frank and Cody who were our guides added tremendously to this exciting adventure.I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a diferent way to explore Red Rock Canyon. It was a major highlight to my trip to Las Vegas.
Review by: Eric C, October 2017
This was a lot of fun and would recommend it to anyone. The staff was on time and very friendly. A great way to see Red Rock Canyon. The weather was great in October but I don't think I would do this in the summer time.

This tour was wonderful! So much fun! Our guides Frank and Kevin were great! They made us feel comfortable and safe. Pick up and drop off were timely. Loved Red Rock ! The scooters were so much fun and the scenery was gorgeous! Definitely a highlight of our trip!

This was 1 of the most fantastic things we have done on all our years of travelling._br/_ We laughed all tour and the tour guides were great fun.
Review by: Sharonguest23, October 2017
Loved this tour so much! All the other reviews were so positive this helped make the decision to choose this one and they were right, it's so much fun! Our guides were fab and definitely help make the experience. I was nervous at first to drive the scooters on the road to get to Red Rock but I needn't have been, the scooters are so easy to operate, you just follow each other and we were very well looked after. Once you get to the 13 mile circular canyon road it's fantastic! The Canyon is not as spectacular as the Grand Canyon, but the scenery is beautiful and going on the scooters is a much better experience than going in a car or SUV. Give it a go, I highly recommend it, have fun!

We booked this last minute as we couldn't find a convertible to rent to drive through red rock canyon._br/_ This tour was so much fun, our guides were great, we loved every second. I've been to Vegas before and did the Grand Canyon but I preferred the scooter tour. If you're in Vegas, I highly recommend.

Review by: Sandy V, April 2017
Totally fun and amazing. My husband cannot stop talking about the scooter car tour and wants to go back! The guides were terrific and looked out for the group and photo bombed your pictures. We stopped at the visitor center and a lot of look out points. Much better than taking a van which I had done in the past!

Review by: Karen M, March 2017
Just a wonderful experience! Nature at its best! Our guide Justin was personable, and patiently explained the in's and out's of our scooter. He did a great job of expertly guiding our small group along the by-way on the way to Red Rock Canyon. _br/_ Punctual pick-up time at our hotel. The entire experience is highly recommended!

Great Fun! Justin and Chris were wonderful guides. They made sure you stayed hydrated and provided tons of information about Red Rock and the plants etc. Glad we did this one. My daughter really enjoyed it. Too bad she couldn't drive.
Review by: Georgette A, July 2016
The Scooter Car Tour was my very favorite excursion on our Las Vegas trips. The guides were funny and informative and the hotel pickup is the way to go. The Red Rock Canyon is lovely and even more fun to hit the curves in the scooters. The tour starts on the outskirts of Vegas so you have the wind in your face longer then traveling to the Canyon and then getting into a scooter. That is the only air conditioning we had on a hot day. The guides had plenty of cold water for us which we needed. A lot of fun for the whole family and I highly recommend it.
Review by: Michael S, July 2016
Tour was outstanding!_br/_ Timely pick up from hotel, knowledgeable and friendly tour guides, fun cars to drive, and an awesome place to tour. Red Rock is beautiful! Well worth the money.
Review by: Brian C, July 2016
This is extremely well run. The scooter is a unique vehicle to tour Red Rock Canyon. I have been before in a car and bus. It gives you a very unique perspective. My 10 year old daughter absolutely adored being in the passenger seat! The staff was friendly and courteous, and the equipment clean and safe. Unlimited free cold water a plus! My ONLY comment would be to spend 30 rather than 20 minutes at the visitor centre, as it seemed a bit rushed. Otherwise, an EXCELLENT tour, fairly priced look for a Groupon before booking to help there!. I would highly recommend it.
Review by: Gwen D, June 2016
The trip was great fun and the guides were very good. We did the 8am tour to avoid afternoon heat and glad we did. Would recommend.

One of the highlights of our holiday, throughly enjoyed ourselves. Well worth doing.
Review by: Mike P, August 2015
Outstanding tour guides who handled several challenges well. Seems like vehicles could use some preventive maintenance. Overall tour was as advertised and enjoyable. Sights were wonderful. Only negative was two vehicles had mechanical issues which delayed the trip a bit.
Review by: Thomas A, August 2015
This is a truly unique experience...we had a great time! SO much fun and such beautiful scenery! If you are looking for something very different and a GREAT way to see the scenery, do this! We were glad we chose the morning tour as it got quite hot by midday. FANTASTIC!
