Pink Jeep Tour
 
While in Sedona we were thinking of a jeep tour. I have heard of Pink jeep tour. Is it worth it? Any particular one that covers majoe attractions?
Thanks

It isn't cheap but the Pink Jeep tour is wildly popular. The favorite seems to be the Broken Arrow route.

There are numerous other companies that also offer similar tours either in Jeeps or Hummers. Pink Jeep seems to be by far the biggest.

We took a pink jeep tour and really enjoyed it. We took the Broken Arrow tour and saw a lot of sights. It was pretty bumpy so I would be careful if anybody in your party has back problems. Reserve it early because they tend to seel out!

We took Broken Arrow years ago. It was absolutely exhilarating! Our driver told us that drivers don't last many years because of the bumpy roads and kidney problems. My back isn't great, but I didn't have a problem.

We also took the Pink Jeep Broken Arrow tour and just loved it-it was the highlight of our trip to Sedona-I think it was about $75 per person.

I've never taken the Pink Jeep tour.

However, I was in Sedona hiking last year and hiked the Broken Arrow trail.

In association with the NPS (I think) Pink Jeep maintains a parallel jeep trail.

While I was hiking several Pink Jeeps came by. I could hear the engine and the yelling of the customers as the driver terrorized them near the cliffs.

Seriously, it really sounded like they were having fun. The got to the very end, Chicken Point and got out to look around and take photos.

I don't know how expensive it is but Broken Arrow was one of the more scenic hikes I took in my couple of days there.

If you want a short and very scenic hike, look into Boynton Canyon Vista (not the full Boynton Canyon).

Also, for a great sunset view of Cathedral Rock, go to the Crescent Moon picnic area and walk over to the Creek.

Excellent sunset view.

Our group of 9 thought the Pink Jeep Tour was completely exhilirating and beautiful. Worth every penny.

Also watch the sunset at the little airport in town.
