We have over 1/2 mile of Segway PT X track with hills,dips,whoops and desert trails! Our Segway X Track experience is for 20 minutes on the track! We train you how to ride, take you for a couple practice laps and then turn you loose on the track! Ride any where you want on the track. We don't start your time until we turn you loose. This is the only place in the world you can ride a Segway on a track like this! So much fun

We visited the Segway Motorcross Track today and what an awesome memory for this special day...John gave us a great overview of handling a Segway, which neither of us had experienced prior...then took us on the track and after a bit, turned us loose to our individual speeds...what a total hoot...can barely wait to go back...

Many trails, you can hike as little or as much as you like. We took a 3.5 mile loop from the Nature Center which included part of the Go John and Overton Trails. Trails are rated Easy/Moderate. The staff is courteous, professional and very helpful. Well worth the drive from Scottsdale or Phoenix.

The quality, science-art and magnificence of this fine Anthem tribute to American Veterans is truly a credit to the Anthem Community and, especially, those who created and enabled its completion. Kudos to all involved. If you have not visited this hallowed site, do so. If you have, return. Recommended.

We rented a Yamaha YXZ 1000r from Luke yesterday at Western Offroad Adventures, and it was the highlight of our annual vacation trip to Phoenix. He had everything we needed for the half-say self-guided adventure, and we were able to access the National forest trails directly from hi location in New River. He was only 20 minutes north of Phoenix, and very easy to find with the GPS. Couldn't have asked for a better day, and will definitely return again next trip. Thanks Luke!!

My friends and I had an absolutely perfect day of riding! I'm quite experienced so I was really looking to have some fun with friends and it was even better than advertised..Everything from the booking and handling of maps and information from Marshall over there made it just an over the top adventure. The area he had been telling my friend and I about had everything from family riding to intense mountain top climbs and some of the most breathtaking views we had ever seen. It was so over the top I'm still telling friends about how much fun we had. We will be back for sure!
7. North Valley Escape Room

There should always be something special about your first... escape room I mean. We were invited my a couple who had done this before, so we felt a little nervous that we wouldn’t do it right. We didn’t want to embarrass ourselves...and with others watching!
As it turned out, the North Valley Escape Room was just the right place to go. They took the time to explain everything, put us at ease, and then locked us in a red room with an hour to kill. It was super fun and once you start with a clue, you get the drift of how it flows fairly easily.
As most people know, you need to work together... instinctively there will be those who want to lead and take over. Since the smartest ones are not always the ones who see the solutions, everyone needs to look around... observe and keep your eyes on the details.
My biggest takeaway for first timers.... if you have a group, try to get a room that holds just your group. If there are 4 of you get a small room so you are only working with people you know. If there are two of you and they put you with a family of 6, you may not be included as they know each other’s strengths and weaknesses. Also, don’t worry about time, have fun and don’t stress. They will give you clues if you get stonewalled.

The Daisy Mt. railroad is a nice little perk for both the residents and visitors to the planned development community of Anthem, AZ. A scale model railroad & track that takes both little and grown-up kids on a short ride around the Anthem community park. Definitely a must do for parents and grandparents to take the little ones on for a very nominal cost

I live in Anthem and the park is technically for residents only. This is a wonderful place to ride the train, fish, play on the playground and have a birthday party. Many things to do and always a big hit with the whole family.

For their “Sonoyta Mexico from Phoenix, Arizona 1-day tour” the advertised price is $95 per adult. When I contacted them, they said the price is $125 per person as of January 1st, 2014. As I write this review on March 5th (over two months after their supposed price increase), the cost is still listed at $95 on their website.
I asked them why their website was not updated, to which they did not respond.
And yet their website advertises “See more with less.” They also state, “We understand in these tough economic times, that money is an important part of the decision making process when selecting your tour company, so we’ve adjusted our prices to help you see more with less!”
I don’t know what their actual tours are like. But their lack of transparency left a bad taste in my mouth, preventing me from booking with them. We’re going to drive to Nogales instead.
