New Private Bike Tour
Wild Bunch Desert Guides is proud to announce our new pavement-based Sonoran Explorin’ on 2 wheels bike tour.
(These are not E bikes)
Join our amazing Wild Bunch 5 star rated guides as we ride the paved trails along the Sonoran Desert at Apache Wash in North Phoenix. This is not a mountain bike trail tour or a road ride.
This tour will show off the beauty of our Sonoran Desert as well as provide some 360 views of North Scottsdale, Cave Creek, Carefree, Glendale and Phoenix as riders pass through beautiful cactus gardens and wildflowers all on paved trails.
The ride itself is a max distance of 11 miles on pavement and can be shortened if needed. The timing is 90 minutes of bike/desert education time.
All tours include snacks, water, and a professional guide for 3-4 hours of Mountain Biking (90 minutes for Sonoran Explorin). Families with kids receive a $15 discount per child 10-and-under. An adult must accompany children.
PRICESDO NOT include taxes, an online booking-system fee, and any gratuity decided upon by our guests.
TIPPING TIP: Same as any service industry workers, the best adventure travel tour guides typically earn a gratuity of 20-percent or more from their guests.
CANCELLATION POLICY: All we ask for is a credit card to hold the time and guide. We know minds and plans change. We offer a full refund up to 48 hours before the departure time of your tour. After that, 50-percent of the deposit is forfeited to help cover the costs of guides, as well as booking, bikes, and other equipment. Thank you for understanding. NOTE: Weather rarely works against outdoor plans in the “Valley of the Sun,” but should we have to cancel a tour to preserve the delicate balances in the desert, we will refund everything.
GROUP POLICY: For Groups of 10 or more please call us at 602-663-0842 to schedule, online booking is not available. A 20-percent gratuity will be added to the tour total. The group outings require extra planning and guides, so we ask that you confirm your group number 48 hours in advance. If things change last minute, please let us know as soon as possible. We will do our best to accommodate, but Safety and Service will be our primary focus. Thanks for understanding!
NOTE: The pickup-and-drop-off transportation option for any adventure booking remains available. However, because of the heightened risk of COVID-19 exposure to our guests and guides from riding in a vehicle together, all guests are asked to consider selecting instead the booking option of meeting their guide at the trailhead. Detailed directions are provided to those guests selecting this option. Thank you for understanding and considering ahead of time this difficult but necessary safety precaution during this challenging time.

The Wild Bunch provides customized private Mountain Bike tours. Because we are a small, local mom-and-pop specialty shop, the Wild Bunch Desert Guides deliver a personal touch and countless extras you will not see from other Phoenix Mountain Bike tours. From the detailed follow-up in the booking process, to the drinks and special snacks provided during our adventure tours, guests are delighted to discover the homespun hospitality and personal care everyone craves when traveling.
Seeing the Sonoran Desert on two wheels is a memorable, once-in-a-lifetime experience when led by an expert guide who knows the twisting trails like the back of their hand. The Wild Bunch pathfinders know where those “can’t miss” landmarks can be found, so they are able to plan the perfect break time to stop and smell the proverbial roses. That is why guests on our guided Mountain Bike trips take those postcard-worthy pictures and maybe even safely hug or taste an iconic Cactus straight from Central Casting for an Old West film.
When led by an expert guide on Mountain Bike tours, there is no need to waste time looking down at a map and risk taking a wrong turn and missing the unforgettable scenery. Guests of the Wild Bunch Desert Guides get the full adrenaline-rushing experience while also safely navigating the desert with the aid of extremely knowledgeable and medically trained tour leaders.
The Phoenix Mountain Bike tours from Wild Bunch are specifically tailored with the fitness and skill levels of the guests in mind. If you have not been on a bike for a while, our guides can help you rediscover that talent. If you are a road cyclist or an intermediate or experienced mountain biker, we have you covered with varying degrees of challenges, too. The Wild Bunch also specializes in families, first-timers, and kids because many of our guides are trained Mountain Bike instructors who can teach beginners how to get rolling.
On our private guided Mountain Bike tours, our guides have lots of trail options to serve any level of rider while also juggling varying degrees of cyclists in each group.
Many of our past guests have discovered a love of the sport through one of our adventure tours and have quickly graduated to competitive racing, including a handful of state champions and podium finishers.
Varying fitness levels are a common challenge Wild Bunch is uniquely qualified to tackle, too. Our guides have many years and levels of experience on the Mountain Bike to show you a safe, fun, and fantastic time.
All the Wild Bunch Mountain Bike Adventures include use of a Marin Performance Hardtail Mountain Bike, helmet, and gloves. Equipment upgrades, such as a premium full-suspension bike, also are available for an additional fee on our guided Mountain Bike trips.
Wild Bunch works harder than the other Mountain Bike tours to deliver once-in-a-lifetime experiences every time to each of our guests. Instead of the well-worn, cookie-cutter corporate outings, Wild Bunch drills down on the details so every guest receives a private and extraordinary adventure.
The menu for our guided Mountain Bike trips includes half day (3-4 hour) or 1.5-hour (90 minute) tours, with a pickup/drop-off transportation option for either length. However, if you desire more time in the saddle a full-day combination of Mountain Biking and Hiking, please visit our “2X The Fun Tours” or simply inquire about us helping to fit your vision during the detailed booking follow-up.
The half-day Mountain Bike tours allow for more exploration time by you or your group, but the 90-minute Mountain Bike adventure is perfect to fit into packed travel itineraries or to accommodate business travelers needing to squeeze in a little playtime before getting back to work. Let's be honest, would you rather the "daily grind" be at work, our out enjoying a Phoenix or Scottsdale trail?
Solo riders receive extra special one-on-one attention from their guide while exploring the Sonoran Desert. Biking groups allow for quality family or friend time with the backdrop an unforgettable landscape.
The best part of both worlds? No one will be added to your private tour, whether booking solo or group Mountain Bike adventures. This is for you and your eyes only.

While casting about for a post-college sport after my fastpitch softball career was over, mountain biking pulled me in more than any of the other extreme thrills biding for my time. So, my Wild Bunch Desert Guides is a perfect extension of my passion for life behind a set of handlebars, and I absolutely LOVE any chance to expose guests to my sport-of-choice with Phoenix mountain bike tours. However, when guests are asking about a large group activity in the Sonoran Desert, Phoenix hiking tours are the better choice – primarily because everybody is travelling at a similar speed and sharing the same superb experience.
Planning an extended weekend getaway with your best friend or significant other? Avoid looking for an adventure on the day of your arrival is the advice from this Phoenix adventure tours owner. Don’t put yourself in a mad rush and feel like you need to squeeze in everything. Focus on what matters most to maximize your fun and avoid any frustrations, including those costly late cancellations.
As the movie “Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion” made hilariously clear, “Post-It Notes” are one of the greatest inventions of all time. Some people also use desk calendars, written to-do lists or magnetic notepads on the fridge to remember the most crucial – but easily forgotten -- details in their life. Still others utilize the “Reminders” Apps on their phone or computer to recall these essential but maddeningly escapable action items. Whatever your chosen method, though, be sure to jot down somewhere these most important facts about Phoenix hiking tours if considering an unforgettably memorable, once-in-a-lifetime adventure with the Wild Bunch Desert Guides.
Varying fitness levels are a common challenge Wild Bunch is uniquely qualified to tackle, too. Our guides have many years and levels of experience on the Mountain Bike to show you a safe, fun, and fantastic time.
