Off-Road CanAm UTV Adventure from Las Vegas — 2-Seater Desert Tour
Swap the Strip’s glare for open desert: this 2-seater CanAm UTV tour puts you behind the wheel across Nevada’s rocky washes and mining corridors. Small groups, hotel pickup, and a guide who knows the best trails make it an efficient, heart-pounding way to experience the Mojave.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before you ride
Drink water before pickup and take the provided bottle—desert heat and wind can dehydrate you faster than expected.
Wear closed-toe, grippy shoes
Sturdy footwear gives better control when entering/exiting the UTV and footing at photo stops.
Secure loose items
Use wrist straps or zip pockets for cameras and phones; dust and vibration can send gadgets overboard.
Respect no-go zones
Do not approach or enter old mine shafts or fenced ruins; they are unstable and dangerous.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Ridge overlooks that frame the valley and are great for panorama shots
- •Short detours to rusted mining relics that make compelling close-up photos (view from a safe distance)
Wildlife
- •Bighorn sheep
- •Desert cottontail and occasional roadrunner
Conservation Note
Stay on marked trails to protect fragile desert soils and native plants; operators emphasize Leave No Trace and restrict routes to established tracks.
Routes pass historic mining areas and ghost-town remnants from Nevada’s late-19th-century prospecting era; many visible structures date to those periods.
Photographer's Notes
- • Ridge overlook above the canyon
