The experience

The day starts at Las Vegas Speedway, where you'll be fitted with sanitized safety gear and watch an orientation video in an air-conditioned theater. After a practice session on the pre-ride track to get comfortable with your ATV, you meet your guide and head out onto the actual trail. You're operating the vehicle yourself, not watching from a passenger seat, so the ride feels like your own adventure, not a guided tour where someone else does the driving.

Your guide leads groups of up to 10 ATVs through the Las Vegas Sand Dunes, with photo stops built into the route and views of the Strip visible from the trail. You pick between a 30-minute or 60-minute ride depending on how much time you want in the dunes. Both options include the same orientation and gear. The smaller group size means your guide can actually watch what's happening instead of managing a convoy, and you get personalized attention if you need help on the trail.

After you're done riding, you drop off your gear at the speedway, grab anything you stored in the free lockers, and catch a shuttle back to the Strip. You'll also get a free Hot Shot Photo of your group with the ATVs. A digital download so you have proof of the ride without paying extra for prints.
