Do you need to make a reservation?
We highly recommend an advanced reservation. We will give
you confirmation and you are all set for your first choice
of Tour
and time. We
also take walk-in reservations and are happy to try and
accommodate any need you may have, but can not guarantee
availability.
Come on in though. We ALWAYS do our BEST to accommodate
everyone if
you’re flexible on when your Tour leaves, and usually
it works out just PERFECT for you.
What should we wear?
Dress for the season, layers in winter and light clothing
for summer. We also suggest comfortable traction tread
shoes or
tennis shoes,
hats or visors, sunscreen and sunglasses. Contact wearers
may prefer to switch to glasses for the Tour.

Food and drink, other than a water bottle, are not
allowed on our Tours; however, you may bring small
snacks for
young children.
Are smoking or alcoholic beverages
allowed?
Smoking and alcoholic beverages are not allowed during
Tours. We operate primarily on protected U.S. Forest
Service Lands
and are
very aware of our responsibility to protect our custodianship
of these beautiful surroundings for generations to
come and request cooperation and assistance from our
Customers
in
preserving our
Scenic Wonderland.
How many people can go in one jeep?
We seat 6 or 7 plus your Guide, depending on the trail
you choose and sizes of the people. With smaller
children, you
can keep
your family of 7 together if that’s your desire.
Will
there be other people on the jeep with my family?
That depends on the size of your Group. If you have less than 6
people, other passengers may also be on the jeep to fill it to
capacity, giving you a chance to make new friends. If your preference
is privacy, we do offer Private Tours.
What if I have a passenger who is
pregnant or has a back problem or other injury?
We have On Road Tours available for these exact situations! Try
our Easy on the Asphalt or a gentle version of our Vortex Tour.
We require a signed acknowledgement of risk from those who have
serious back or neck problems, other injuries, or who are pregnant.
Is there a minimum age for children?
Yes, the minimum age is one year. Child rates are
available for children up to 12 years old. Children
under 16
years old must
have an adult with them on the Tour. We do have
car seats available; please let us know in advance.
 What is the
temperature in the month that we are visiting?
It’s cool to sometimes cold in the winter. In the summer,
dress in light layers and you’ll enjoy the
primarily cool to balmy and sometimes comfortably
warm weather in our open air
vehicles. The fresh outdoor air breezes are wonderful
to take in any time of the year.
What happens if
it rains?
The showers in our area are usually very brief,
but we do carry rain ponchos in the jeeps. If it
becomes
too
wet, we
reserve the right to reschedule your Tour.
Are there restrooms
on the Trails?
No, we will be in the U.S. National Forest. We
have public restrooms behind our Jeep Tour Center
and
suggest you
use those before
leaving, and our Guides are here to please if we
need to accommodate someone’s
needs.
What is the standard tip for our Tour Guide?
The customary 15% to 20% is fine, but it is entirely up to you.
Our Guides are here for your pleasure as their first and foremost
priority and it’s up to you any additional gratuity you
feel is appropriate. For Groups of 10 or more, a gratuity of
15% is added.
Will we walk much on our Tour?
You will have the opportunity to get out of the
jeep to stretch, explore and take great photos!
Most Tours
have
minimal walking.
We do have Tours with actual hiking if that
is your interest, so let us know. The complete descriptions
on each Tour
page will tell
you all about what each Tour offers.
Are Red
Rock Western Jeep Tours safe?
Yes! We have a flawless safety record, with
