The experience

The arch is the first stop, and you reach it by jeep instead of on foot. Once there, you decide: climb it, photograph it, or sit in the vehicle and take in the view. That choice sets the tone for the whole day. The guide is there to read what you want, not to push a fixed itinerary, so if rock crawling appeals to you more than hiking, or if you'd rather stay in the jeep and ride, that's the tour you get.

Doc's Beach off-road park is where the terrain gets serious. The jeep tackles steep ups and downs that would be impossible on foot, and you feel every one of them as a passenger: the vehicle leans, the engine works, and the ground drops away. Between the rock sections, you pass petroglyphs carved into the stone and drive into a cave that opens up around you. The whole thing takes 3 to 4 hours, which leaves the rest of your day open if you need it.

The vehicle is air-conditioned and you get bottled water, so the physical intensity is up to you. If you want to sit back and let the scenery roll past, that works. If you want to get out and hike to a petroglyph or climb the arch, the guide stops for that too. The guide speaks English and handles the driving and the route. You just show up and tell them what you're interested in.

Top questions

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

Can I choose what we do on the Rhodes jeep tour, or is the route fixed?

The route adapts to your interests. You can focus on rock crawling, hikes to petroglyphs and dinosaur tracks, scenic riding, or a mix of all three: the guide builds the day around what matters to you.

What is Doc's Beach off-road park like?

Doc's Beach is an off-road park with steep rock terrain that the jeep navigates: insane ups and downs, as the operator describes them. You'll see petroglyphs, drive through a cave, and experience the landscape from inside the vehicle as it handles slopes most roads don't have.

Do I have to hike to see the petroglyphs, or can I stay in the jeep?

You choose. The jeep takes you to petroglyphs and other sites, and you can get out for a short hike or stay in the air-conditioned vehicle: the guide works with what you want to do.

Is the arch climb difficult?

The arch is accessible once you arrive by jeep. You can climb it, take pictures from the ground, or stay in the vehicle. The choice is yours when you get there.

How long does the tour take?

The tour runs 3 to 4 hours, which leaves time for other activities or meals before or after.

What's included in the price?

The tour includes a live English-speaking guide, the jeep with air conditioning, bottled water, and hotel pickup.
