Wonderful Death Valley tour and star gazing experience Wonderful experience. The sceneries at Dante’s view, badwater basin are amazing and otherworldly. The stargazing experience is wonderful too, but make sure you bring enough clothing as it can get quite chilly in December night.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! All I can say is awesome views, an awesome guide, and an overall awesome tour. After all the guests were picked up in Vegas, we stopped along the way for a quick breakfast, and then it was on our way to Death Valley. We first stopped at Furnace Creek at the visitors center and then to Badwater Basin salt flats at 282 ft. below sea level. We then stopped at Devels Golf Course, followed by Artists Palette for the colorful hills. We stopped for lunch at the Ranch. After lunch, we went to Zabriskie Point. Our last stop was at Dantes View at 5482 ft. above sea level for a breathtaking view of a good portion of the valley. We headed back after that. Our tour guide, Jonny Tower, was absolutely awesome with a great amount of knowledge of the park along with its history. I highly recommend Max Tours and Jonny.

LV to Death Valley w/Stargazing We had such a wonderful time on this trip! Our tour guide, Johnny was so nice, knowledgeable, and very easy going! He made sure we were never without water or snacks, allowed us to rest in the A/C when needed, and was always willing to take pictures of us. Definitely be prepared for HOT temperatures and lots of sun, but this trip was perfect to see a good portion of Death Valley without having to navigate or drive yourself. We had at least an hour of laying on provided yoga mats under the stars having nice conversations about the different constellations and things we were seeing. It was a 10/10 trip and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a day trip to Death Valley from Vegas. We left around 10am and were dropped off around midnight.

Death Valley Tour with Scott After a recent two-day Grand Canyon and Antelope tour, my family was back for the Death Valley with Sunset and Stargazing tour. Scott was our tour guide for both trips. We felt very comfortable and safe traveling with Scott since we know him from our last tour. As usual, Scott was very patient with his driving and informative about our schedule and plan. He took care of everyone in the group and made sure that we were all comfortable. In one day, we were able to visit Donte's view, Artists Palette, Devil's Golf Course, Badwater Basin, Furnace Valley, Zabriskie point. We were able to enjoy the sunset and lay on the ground with Yoga mats provided by MaxTour to stargaze before wrapping up our day. It was a great experience! Thank you Scott!

Nice experience ! Amazing experience ! It was too hot that day, didn't expect that much high temperature. But the breathtaking valley views couldn't stop me for short hikes even at that temperature! Stargazing part was amazing, it was a full moon night, got a nice view of the moon and countless stars on the night sky, could spot several constellations on the night sky! Elaine was our tour guide-driver, she is so cool and nice! Overall its a memorable experience !
