*There is a 32-person maximum for this activity. The Valley of the Sun affords the rare opportunity to ride the thermals high above the desert floor. You'll gradually ascend into the sky behind a tow plane. Then comes the exhilarating moment when you are released from the tow and experience an engineless glider flight. You can even fly the plane! Your pilot will familiarize you with your surroundings and educate you on the basic flying techniques.
Your pilot will also log your flight in your Official Glider Pilot's logbook. It's a great souvenir of this unique and memorable activity.
*There is a 20-person minimum for this activity. On this popular adventure tour you will experience breathtaking desert landscapes, fascinating rock formations and exciting off-road action! One of the hottest activities in the Valley today, the Desert Hummer Tour is a fun way to see the true unspoiled desert in our area. This tour lets you explore the vast desert area not normally accessible to tourists. It's the best way to experience the desert, day or night!
*There is an eight-person minimum for this activity. Take me out to the ballgame! Nine teams come to the Phoenix area to train before the Major League Baseball (MLB) season begins.

Nestled in the heart of historic Old Town Scottsdale and surrounded by art galleries, restaurants and boutique shops, the stadium has become the home away from home for the Giants.

It’s time to get along the trail and have some fun. Out here we say “it’s like heaven, with cactus,” and on your Longhorn cattle drive, you’ll experience the desert and the Wild West first hand. Once you arrive, you will make acquaintance with your wranglers - colorful, courteous and experienced cowboys who will show you the ways of the Old West. These wranglers will give you instructions and lay out the tasks ahead of you. You’ll learn to drive a herd and see spectacular views of the Mazatzal Wilderness and Tonto National Forest while pushing the cattle down the trails of the wild Mustangs. It’s an experience that you’ll never forget.
