Great Experience - We did a private UTV tour with a private pick up from our hotel and the experience was great from start to finish. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and tour guide, Alberto was great - we got to see a good mix of desert and beach! The vehicles were all in good condition and G force were clear on instruction and safety. Would happily recommend.

A great adventure! - Pablo and Tony were such great guides, this was an adventure I will never forgot! The whole experience was fun, safe and exhilarating! The only negative was the price of the photographs they take along the trip. It was around $30 for a single photo or $90 if you wanted them to airdrop you the photos.

Great job! - Tony and Juan were great as they remembered us from a year ago. They treated us as if they knew us for years. Gforce adventures is a great place to take an atv or utv ride and all their team there is professional and respectful of everyone's availabilities.

Fantastic customer service - I would give Tony all of the stars if I could. My husband and I were booked on a side by side UTV for this tour, but then our large group hit a looong sandy river bed to break free and let loose, our machine advertised “limp home mode,” and we couldn’t accelerate. Our friends behind us obviously knew something was wrong, but Tony quickly responded to my frantic waving and gave us his 4x4 to continue until a new UTV could meet us at the beach. The roads were scenic through the desert mountains, with brief stops at Candelaria and a beach, but the best part was our private tour. Tony split the group and kept our 5 person party a private go fast party. We took twisting roads and river beds and had a great time! My only regret was the photographer wasn’t on the go fast party. She stayed with the pokey party. Once we got back to the shop, we checked out the photos, grabbed 2 for 1 margs and the bar and waited until a tequila tasting of Tony’s family’s tequila. So good. That blanco was perfection. We tried the blanco, bourbon barrel anejo, repasado, plus liquors of chocolate, margarita, and espresso/vanilla. Loved them all! Props to the crew for all they did to make sure our day was as smooth as the tequila.

Worth the money! - A wonderful experience! Juan was an excellent guide who was mindful of safety and our enjoyment. Even when one of our UTVs had mechanical issues, they quickly brought out a better one! No complaints from our group. The tequila afterwards was so good we bought a bottle to go.

Best fun in a long time !! - This was the most fun I've had in a long time! These things go fast and the twisty, windy trails make this a fun little challenge. The utvs are in great shape and the tour guides are attentive. We stopped in Candelaria by the old church for a drink before continuing to the beach where we got to take a picture with the camel. I 100% recommend. One tip is to make sure you wear shorts that cover your knees and long sleeve covering so you don't get burnt like me even though I had spf 50 on haha. P.s. you get dirty.

Don't race Alejandra - We recently took the desert and beach UTV tour. Amazing. Alejandra was a great tour guide. She asked slow or fast? Since we own our own UTVs we said fast. I would not want to race her. She was great, super pace, knowing just when we needed a breather ( we are all in our 50s ). The desert is amazing (would not want to be stranded there). Terrain rough but the UTVs handled it like a champ. Easy place to find, drove ourselves, arrived early. They offered to take us on a private tour (for an extra charge) and we accepted. Was nice just us two couples on the tour. Beach was nice with a cool breeze. Great refreshments when we arrived back. And Juan's knowledge of tequila was exceptional, we even purchased our favorite after tasting. Jasmin took great photos as well. Would do it all again , and I would recommend to anyone looking for an off-road adventure.

NOT GFORCE ADVENTURES - We thought we were booking with Gforce Adventures which is what we were told in the booking. We had gone with Gforce last summer and it was great. They were a small family run operation with great trails and fast awesome driving experience even in a group booking. This year we got rerouted to Viator when we tried to book. What we didn’t know was that Cactus Tours had bought them out and were pretending to still be Gforce. Trust me people they shouldn’t even be allowed to use that name. When the driver dropped us off we were in a crowd of people. The trip cost $405 to book one 4 seat utv for 3 people. That was the total cost last year with Gforce but Cactus then charged us a $20 admission fee per person to basically be able to use their restroom and buy stuff in their gift shop. Then they charged an additional $45 for insurance on the vehicle and tried to sell us medical insurance. Then they proceed to tell us we have to pay another $150 if we want a private tour and be able to use our cell phones! That’s right you can’t even take pictures! Also tried to sell is like another $350 upgrade for a higher horsepower ride even though you have to follow in line with the slower drivers. Their tour guides spend more time telling you how much you need to tip them instead of driving faster for everybody to enjoy. This is a perfect example of a tour getting ruined by big companies cramming hundreds of people in and out as fast as possible. Total scam people. Be aware!
