Travel in air-conditioned comfort north of Las Vegas to the Valley of Fire. This sacred Indian area has a vast display of some of the finest examples of Indian petroglyphs in the southwest. The Aztec sandstone formations are a photographer's dream come true and a sightseeing wonder. This is the perfect adventure for the whole family.

This display starts with the Desert Culture of 10,000 years ago and continues through the Ancient "Basketmaker" cultures, which existed until about 500 AD.
Enjoy a deli-style lunch with your choice of ham, turkey or vegetarian sandwich and transportation by either SUV or mini-coach.
We had a wonderful time with Denis at the valley of Fire. He was a great guide and full of interesting information about the plants and animals as well as the amazing landscape. He was happy to stop and let us take photos pointing out the good places and rock formations. We really had a great trip. Thank you.

Great, the tour guide was the best I think his name was either Lloyd or Larry but he was well versed on the Valley of Fire. I will be taking the hiking tour the next time I come back to Vegas

The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Because we were a small goup 4 our tour guide took us to some beautiful, less traveled viewing areas. The entire trip was awe inspiring, however, the museum was not open. The small ground squirrels at out lunch stop were cute and entertaining.

I took this trip as a solo traveler, and the tour guide Clayten B. was the greatest! It was a smaller group, 2 couples and myself, he introduced us all, was comfortable right from start! We saw so many wonderful points, the colors and rock formations are amazing, saw petroglyphs and some lizards sunning, a condor, Clayten was such an informative, friendly guide, learned alot about the area, and many many pictures, which he also was willing to take! We stopped at the cabins, we also had our box lunch which was included, good Italian sandwich! On way back we stopped at the LOst Museum in Overten and had more pics, some great information in museum and bought a few gifts! Hotel pick up and drop off, it was a very memorable day!

Had a great experience. Driver was very informative. Good lunch provided. End of April was good time to go on this tour as weather was not as hot as later in the year.

It was a wonderful day, our driver was great, very informative, I would like to go back and. Do it again sometime. Excellent.

The place is better than Red Rock because it is more extensive the rock formation. Our tour guide was knowledgeable of the history and had a sense of humor. The ride was comfortable and the food was just fine.

Great trip. I enjoyed the red sand dessert, the red sandstone clifs - especially climbing them - and the flora. Also, cool with the petroglyphs. Would have likes to see the Domes though instead of the Lost City Museum.
Review by: Jakob F, April 2016
What a great trip - I loved being in the desert climbing the red sandstone rocks, walking in the fine red sand and finding old Indian petroglyphs.

Enjoyed the tour and particularly liked Kevin, our tour guide, who was knowledgeable, informative and a very nice person. Any tour which he guides is in for good one.

Erm it's not worth the money paid to be honest! I would recommend you go to Grand Canyon instead. I paid 90 dollars from a local tour operator in Vegas.

Our guide was superb - He knew history and interesting facts that were both pertinent to our trip, and interesting sidelights. The day was beautiful, the ride comfortable, the scenery stunning. I would recommend it to anyone - as especially our guide, Julian.

From start to finish this was a fantastic tour. A nice small group, a very knowledgeable guide, the most beautiful scenery, stunning petroglyphs and even the museum at the end of the tour was fascinating. Well worth taking time away from the over-the-top man-made scene that is Vegas to remind yourself that nature created spectacles long before Man ever did!

This is a great tour if you don't have a car but still want to get out of Las Vegas itself and do a bit of exploring. The car pick up was on time and communication from the Tour Operator was good._br/_
Our tour guide, Bill Jackson, was extremely knowledgeable of the Valley of Fire - the plant life, and rock formations. He was more than happy to wait in certain places for a few extra minutes whilst we took pictures, and even offered to take some ourselves._br/_
Lunch was pretty basic but it was a nice touch to offer it as part of the deal

excellent trip and Mark our driver was great .
Review by: Janice B, January 2014
I think what made this such a great tour was our guide Charlene. She made the valley come alive for me and was so knowledgeable.
Review by: Mary B, December 2013
This tour was wonderful, more beautiful than any pictures can begin to show. We spent the full day going back in time and the ages of time in the museum. The tour in the Valley of Fire was spectacular. Our guide was so very knowledgeable in providing the details of the area. She took us to favorite spots and helped us to see the drawings and petroglyphs. The colors were vibrant and it is fun to review our photos to remember our wonderful tour._br/_
I highly recommend this tour when you are in the Las Vegas area.
Review by: Jean B, December 2013
There were only 6 of us on this group tour which meant that at each stop we weren't waiting for other passengers to get back on the coach and we got to see a lot more because of this. The tour guide Dean was very knowledgeable about the area visited and the general area around Las Vegas. The only downside to the trip was the Lost City Museum which was not worth visiting. We found the Valley of Fire amazing and well worth a visit.

This was the last tour of our 9 days in Vegas, and was definitely one to save for the end. We had an absolutely wonderful tour guide from Adventure Photo Tours - Charlene. We were in a group of 4 which made for an excellent private tour in the end; a German couple who were supposed to join us absolutely lambasted Charlene in the morning for being delayed by traffic for all of 10 minutes, and complained the vehicle was not what they were expecting. Despite being abused, Charlene kept her composure, calmly informed us what happened, and then got us on our way.
Review by: Jeffrey C, October 2013
We loved this tour - Bill who was filling in for Charlene was brilliant picking us all up at the LV hotels and then off to VOF we went. There were a ttoal of 6 of us and Bill took us to the best spots, taking our photos and answering our questions. All in all, we saw a total of 7-8 sites at the VOF. I loved that you could get close and touch, feel, climb etc. We didnt think much of the museum but maybe that was just because we were tired after the long day and we were so wowed by the VOF but then thats just our opinion. You can get some nice souvenirs and good prices there and its tax free! However, we are rating the tour as a whole and have to give it 5/5
Review by: Marika H, March 2013
What a wonderful day. Naturally I had seen photos of the place in advance but they do no justice to the true beauty of this amazing, strange, very powerful and spiritual place. The colors, the rock formations, the wildlife. We were also lucky to visit on a sunny day so the colors were really blazing. _br/_
Also, our guide Charlene was a magician, literally taking us to another time and place with wonderful stories to share and with patience to stop and show us around without any feeling of hurry. I will especially never forget the magic trick of how we arrived in Rainbow Vista (I must tell you that the night before I had seen David Copperfield at the MGM and mind you I absolutely do love his illusions, but sorry Mr. Copperfield, you've been beaten!)._br/_
I highly recommend this tour. And especially if you have only one day to spend since the park is not far from Vegas, so you don't need to spend 5+ hours. During my visit to Vegas I visited several other parks (including Grand Canyon and Death Valley) and of all these Valley of Fire remains the most stunning experience.

This tour was wonderful. It is with Photo Adventure tours and our guide was Char. She was so knowledgeable about the entire area it was amazing. I highly recommend this tour, nice ride, good lunch, secret places to see, wish they had a nightime tour to see the starts!!
