Great hike with a great company - Super hike in the Valley of Fire. Pickup and drive were smooth and easy, the hike was gorgeous, and tour guide Nick a great companion and leader. The challenging hike will be easygoing for experienced hikers, but should suit most fit and sure-footed walkers. Very recommended!

Recommended! - Highly recommended! With a bag full of snacks and a cooler full of water and sports drinks we headed to Valley of Fire. Nick is a good and pleasant guide. Plenty of time for fun facts, photos and of course in beautiful surroundings. The moderate hike was doable. Occasionally rock scrambling, but I think the hike could have been even longer. We walked about 2.5 miles. It's nice that it is a small group and the pick-up and drive there was also comfortable.

Great morning hike - Fantastic hike with Love hikes - I believe our guide was Matthew - he was so knowledgeable- and did a great job guiding us beyond where we could have gone on our own - all done safely. Appreciate the water and snacks but more the information he gave us about how the original people lived here. Loved interpreting the petroglyphs and seeing the rock formations. Overall fantastic way to escape the overstimulation of the city. Highly recommend.

Challenging beautiful hike with great sense of achievement - Our tour guide Matthew inspired confidence and was personable and knowledgeable. He helped the group through a challenging hike with a fair bit of climbing up and over rocks. It was a great day!
