Xtreme 4x4 Tours

Xtreme 4x4 Tours runs guided off‑road experiences from Moab, including a signature 3‑hour Monster Buggy tour that tackles Hell’s Gate, Mickey’s Tubs and the Escalator. The company operates permitted backcountry trips into Arches and Canyonlands and emphasizes five‑point harnesses and advanced safety systems.

Options range from family‑friendly scenic rides to hands‑on U‑Drive side‑by‑side sessions. Tours are seasonal (best in spring and fall); bookings are available through FareHarbor and third‑party platforms and are recommended well in advance for peak months.

Start with a safety briefing and gear up with five‑point harnesses before climbing into a custom off‑road vehicle.

Look out for:

• Technical obstacles including the Escalator and Hell’s Gate on the signature Monster Buggy route.

• U‑Drive sessions that let you pilot a Kawasaki KRX under instructor supervision.

• Scenic sections on gentler tours with desert vistas and photo stops.

• Guided access into backcountry areas of Arches and Canyonlands on permitted routes.

Best way to experience it: Book the 3‑hour Xtreme tour for the full Monster Buggy challenge, or choose U‑Drive if you want hands‑on driving time. Dress for dust and sun, arrive early for check‑in, and allow extra time in spring/fall when tours sell out.

• Book early for spring and fall; peak dates fill weeks to months in advance.

• Tours are bumpy; expect secure harnessing and active terrain—bring layers.

• Wear closed‑toe shoes and sun protection; cameras should be secured.

• Weather and permit rules can alter routes or availability on short notice.
