Embark on a nocturnal adventure with our Dark Sky UTV Tour with Stargazing in the heart of Greater Zion. This unique experience combines the thrill of off-roading with the serene beauty of the desert night sky.
As twilight fades, the desert transforms into a canvas of twinkling stars. Greater Zion is renowned for its clear skies and minimal light pollution, making it ideal for stargazing. Navigate through sand dunes and red rock trails under the gentle glow of moonlight, guided safely by our expert team.
We'll make stops at scenic viewpoints to marvel at the Milky Way and possibly catch glimpses of shooting stars or distant planets.
Driving under the vast, star-studded sky is a surreal experience that connects you with nature on a deeper level. Whether you're an avid astronomer, a thrill-seeker, or seeking unforgettable memories, this tour offers something truly special.

Night driving in sand dunes under the stars.

5.00My daughter and I were a little nervous after watching the video but our guide was patient. It took a few minutes to get used to driving that beast but was so worth the experience. We had fun and would recommend this. It is a very bumpy ride so if you don’t like getting knocked around, it may not be for you. We felt like we were in an alternate universe like Dune. So much fun! Fear is the mind killer!
Amazing experience

5.00My girlfriend and I went to Utah for our vacation and tried this tour, not only was our tour guide Jeff Robinson professional but very friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend anyone wanting to do this to go for it as you will not regret it. They also give the opportunity to switch off so if you have other people coming along, they can also experience the drive. The star gazing was amazing and we got to see plenty of stars.
Great experience!! I...

2.00Fun experience, but go in with eyes open. It's follow-the-leader format with no real agency over speed or route. More importantly: you're financially liable for any vehicle damage, even if you did nothing wrong. I was following the car in front of me at normal speed and got a flat tire from a rock — ended up being charged $347. They also hold $1,500 on your card upfront. Views were great, but for ~$750 total with that kind of exposure, I'm not sure the value is there.
Just do it

5.00My partner and I had a blast on this tour and would strongly recommend. We were given easy, straightforward instructions on safety and how to operate the vehicle. Melvin was very familiar with the terrain, expertly guiding the group and giving ongoing instructions. Melvin and Jason were very personable, making us feel comfortable throughout the experience.
Fun times at Hurricane Utah!!

5.00Fun! Fun! Fun! It’s The first time we have done something like this, and it will not be the last. If you’re going to do something like this, do the night run and make sure it’s going to be a clear night before you go. Our guides were awesome.
