Short on time but craving Sedona's red-rock drama? This 2-hour Polaris UTV rental out of 2740 W. State Rt. 89A packs scenic overlooks, slickrock runs, and expert safety into a fast, accessible off-road jaunt.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring your driver’s license
A valid driver's license is required to operate UTVs; Turbo models require drivers age 25+.
Protect the soil
Stay on marked routes to avoid fragile cryptobiotic crusts and restore native plants, especially after rain.
Hydrate and shade
The operator provides bottled water, but bring extra hydration and sun protection for peak-heat months.
Secure loose items
Use dry bags or lock boxes—wind and bumps can eject phones, cameras, and hats on exposed sections.
