This tour is a great introduction to mountain biking in Moab! Spectacular views of Arches National Park and gently rolling terrain on wide, doubletrack make this ride perfect for beginners and families. All riders need to know how to ride a bike, shift gears and use hand-brakes. Minimum height: 3'11".

Outstanding introduction to mountain biking! Nice variety, to allow us to experience different terrain. Guides gave great instructions. Nice scenery. A couple of people fell off their bikes, but nothing serious.

This was a great experience! Flying Brian is an awesome guide and very knowledgeable of the trails and Moabs history. He explained all the basics of trail riding for those who have never done this kind of riding before.

We were in town for a couple of days with our teenage kids and wanted to ride Slick Rock. As fairly experienced mountain bikers, I was a little skeptical about booking a tour over just renting bikes and riding. But I am so glad we did! Slick Rock is completely unique to anything else we have ever ridden before, and our guide Jeff was amazing. To have a local guide you round the trail and show you the best sections to session and where to stop for views etc just took the whole experience to another level. The bikes and equipment were top level and way better than if we had had just “rented” and ridden. The overall cost was barely more than just renting anyway, so the value for money was awesome. I cannot recommend this enough, even for experienced riders.

Did the "beginner/introductory" bike trail. Wouldn't suggest it for kids even though the video shows kids on the trail. I had expected a wide Jeep road with few ups and downs and not many rocks - it's not that. The trail has a few short ups and downs but you will ride on slick rock a lot of the way. There are a few spots where you have to negotiate larger rocks in the trail. If you are comfortable on a bike you will do fine. It is about a four hour day but that is taken up with driving to the site (15 minutes), safety and bike information (the bikes are fabulous), etc. When you are on the ride the guide will stop frequently to show you what obstacle is next and show you how to ride it, to take a few pictures, to give you a chance to catch your breath. I have ridden mountain bikes a couple of times so was very comfortable on this ride. Take more water than you think you will need. I liked using my hydration pack rather than just using a water bottle that is attached to the bike. If you don't have a level of endurance this might not be for you. Our guide Jeff was fabulous. It was fun, exciting, a little challenging and I had a blast!

We actually booked this tour through the Moab Adventure Center, but learned afterwards that the tour is actually run by Rim Tours. I had some issues with hour Moab AC advertised the tour so I won't recommend them but I highly recommend Rim Tours because the tour itself was excellent. We did the tour for our family of four including 2 kids aged 5 and 8. I wish we had booked directly with Rim Tours because I see on their website that you can pay a little extra (actually cheaper than what we paid through Moab AC) for the tour to be completely private. This would have been better for us since we had 2 young kids. Because we didn't know of this option we had 2 additional riders with us, and adult son and father. The guide did a great job of trying to cater to everyone but he pulled the plug pretty quickly on our 5 yo because we didn't want to hold up the group. He and my husband stayed behind and enjoyed the pump track area so it was fine in the end but I think if it had just been the four of us we could have spent more time getting the 5 yo used to the new bike and terrain. Our friends had done this tour a week before us with the same aged kids and the youngest a less experienced rider than my 5 yo and they had this experience since their tour was private. Lesson learned folks, book directly through Rim Tours and pay extra for the private if you have young kids!
Now all that being said, we thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Our guide was fantastic and so kind. My 8 yo was over the moon and I had a blast with him.
Highly recommend!

We had an amazing time on our half-day ride with Julie & Rim Tours. The bikes were fantastic, really helped to build my confidence that the bike was also well equipped to handle the rocky terrain. The trip was such a blast, we'll definitely do another tour with Rim on our next visit!

I can't say enough amazing things about our experience with Rim Tours during our Utah trip. We biked the Courthouse loop with Marla and she couldn't have been more of a perfect fit for my family of four (kids ages 10 and 13). She was able to take all four of our skill levels and make the trip a complete success. We all felt comfortable on the rental bikes, her introduction on how to maneuver the bikes and area was top notch. Her knowledge on the area and having us stop to take in the view was completely perfect! I would highly recommend this tour group and five star Marla!!!!

We had such a fun time on the Courthouse loop trail with Rim Tours. Our tour guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and prepared. They knew the trail very well, were able to educate me (a super beginner mountain biker) on how to control the bike so I felt confident. We did an easy trail to start off with to get the hang of things and then moved into more technical/fun trails. Incredible views throughout the entire trail - really enjoyed this half day adventure and it was well worth the price. This was our favorite part of our trip to Moab. It helps to be in somewhat good cardio shape for this, but they cater to all ages/conditions and it was fun for all regardless of conditioning/training.

Had a blast 2 excellent guides. Split group into 2 so beginners could have fun and more experienced riders could have more of a challenge. Loved riding over slick rock. Our guide was so nice took lots of pics for us. Would highly recommend to everyone all ages all skill levels
