Sedona Jeep Tour


Saturday, we took the Broken Arrow tour with Pink Jeep Tours in Sedona. We had a great time even though the temperature hovered around 100 degrees. Luckily, afternoon clouds and a few sprinkles cooled things down a bit while we were actual on the trail.


The Broken Arrow tour is the original and most popular tour. When I booked it, I wish I realized that would mean that we would be sharing our tour with another foursome--eight people was a tight fit and required one adult to sit up front with the driver. The other drawback to the Broken Arrow tour is the traffic. At least, four other jeeps pulled out with us, and we went along the trail, one after the other like a pink amusement park ride.

BUT, if you want a tour that's going to take you where you thought a vehicle couldn't go, this is it. Even though the trail is open to the public, you need a high-clearance, short wheelbase 4x4 to maneuver through the rocky terrain. The girls really enjoyed driving up then straight down boulders. I liked stopping at two points to take photographs of the incredible scenery.
