My 13 year old and I did the moderate hike. It was just enough to push us and still be enjoyable. Our guide was knowledgeable and easy going. Van was nice and snacks and drinks were plentiful. Our guide even carried extra water bottles for everyone in the group! - I recommend this trip to those who are seeking an off the beaten path experience. Suggest hiking boots as they really came in handy when climbing the red rock sand formations. Memorable experience.The Valley of Fire hike I took was amazing! Nick is a great guide and I will definitely go again whenever I'm back in the area.

Based on the description of the 3 options, we selected moderate. Prior to arriving, we were given 3 more options with varying degrees of difficulty, and our group selected the 2nd most difficult. Our expectations were that we would be on an actual trail as opposed to ascending and descending rock formations with sloping and unstable surfaces that required foot placement on small ledges, use of hands and sliding down on your butt if necessary. The degree of slope was more than expected. I for one did not wear clothing that was appropriate for sliding down rocks. I would rate this as a moderate to advanced hike for experienced hikers. Early on my husband slipped and fell, getting several scrapes that required treatment. After that incident we were directed to walk out towards the road on a flat path, find a shady spot, and wait for the rest of the hikers to complete their hike. We did exactly that, and feel it was the best and safest option for us. We waited for an hour until we were picked up as promised at 10:30. Going forward I recommend you modify your description of the moderate hike and equip your guides with satellite radios, including an extra, in the event of a situation similar to ours where we had no means of communication because cell phones don't work.This is a special place, with rock colors and unique formations that are unique and compelling. Slot canyons and rock scrambles, along with an iguana or two, made for a great day. Our guide Sarah was a lot of fun, corny jokes included at no extra charge.

This is a special place, with rock colors and unique formations that are unique and compelling. Slot canyons and rock scrambles, along with an iguana or two, made for a great day. Our guide Sarah was a lot of fun, corny jokes included at no extra charge. We were on the "moderate" level hike and if you do the optional mountain climbs, it is a challenging day. It was a great experience and highly recommended.Such a great hike. Loved going off trail, climbing and exploring. Our tour guide Nick was very knowledgeable about all the cool spots and he even picked up the trash he found on the way.
