We had a phenomenal experience! Allan was an amazing tour guide! We had the opportunity to try out a new trail that recently opened last week. It was just amazing! I really can't say much else. The vibe was there, the views were there, the knowledge and stories on point. Allan really made our experience the best. I tremendously appreciate how kind and cool he was with our 11year old. He loves to ask a million questions and Allan was just so kind and happy to answer all of them! This was our first time and I will say.. we are coming back with some friends lol. I highly recommend it's. Soooo much fun! We experienced a part of big bear most people don't see or know about it was just sooo beautiful! I highly highly recommend! Don't sleep on this one! read more

Our group of 3 had a great time! Connor was an excellent tour guide who explained the history of the landscape as we drove around. Also appreciated that he took tons of photos/videos for us and was great at explaining the obstacles. read more

The HYPE is worth believing in! We had such a great tour with Bob who led our tourzilla around the fun and bumpy big bear roads. I was a little hesitant when booking because of the price and no-refund policy but all the reviews won me over. I'm glad we said yes because it was so worth it. Those 40 inch wheels come in handy when you are going through puddles, rocks and mud. Both my kids had an amazing time (age 12 and 8) and I would say they felt like it was a roller coaster that kept going! Bob had music on that he selected throughout the trip and it honestly felt fun and adventurous. TIPS: I will say you should probably bring a warm jacket and it gets quite windy with the open air jeep so sunglasses and even a face covering is a must. We also Brought water and snacks but only used our water because we were so into the experience and the tour. Bob was very knowledgable about the environment, trees, history, and story of Big Bear. We learned new facts and had a great time at it also. This was also a perfect time because the season was not crazy busy and the weather was just perfect. I will also say Bob is a great photographer and was able to catch all the right shots that we were hoping for. read more

My boyfriend and I had a fantastic experience off-roading today on Tourzilla with Alan as our driver and guide! Alan began the time by sharing some interesting history starting back in the late 1800s, information about Tourzilla - the vehicle we rode in, a little about Skyline - the road we would be on for the day, and the magnificent views we'd be seeing. Next we loaded up and hit the road with music playing that cleverly fit the experience and that made you want to sing to it. As we rode up the mountainside, appropriate stops were made to give us the opportunity to hear some interesting facts, take in the gorgeous sights, and take breathtaking pictures!!! Alan could NOT have been a better driver and guide, and he has a super personality to boot! Hands down...he's got to be the best! Thank you, Alan, for making the trip so memorable! We'll highly recommend this to everyone we know! Blessings!!! read more

5-stars to Big Bear Off-Road Experience!! We booked the Tourzilla online, showed up at the office at our designated time, signed some waivers and off we went. Desi took us up through Holcomb Valley Backcountry and Gold Fever Trail. We climbed up to 7.5k ft elevation, all the while, listening to some great tunes and Desi chiming in to talk about local history, mining heritage, plants, wildlife and off-road techniques & etiquette. We stopped at least 5x on the tour to get up close and soak up some stories and history of the area. Desi has a heart of Gold, he's passionate about this tour and it shows. He was really in-tune with our family's special needs and we really appreciated that. Don't sleep on this one y'all, you won't regret it! Book it! read more

Had the best time here visiting with some friends. Went on the beginners trail about a 10 minute drive from there business and we learned about the history of big bear while on our tour that had some fun and interesting facts. Cooper exceeded our expectations of the beginners off roading experience. Since it was just us, we were able to take our time on some of the jumps. He was a very patient teacher and I would feel confident doing the more intense experiences with him as our guide. 10/10 recommend and will definitely book again! read more

We had a small group of just us two and another couple. Our driver and guide Allen (Alan?) showed us a great time. Kept us entertained the whole way. Great experience with amazing views. He's a great dude too! read more

Absolutely amazing experience and Connor was a wonderful instructor! You drive your own jeep behind the instructor's jeep and he gives you instructions over a radio and even jumps out and helps guide on certain parts. The instructor offered to take plenty of videos while he was out. At no part did I ever feel like I was in danger as the instructor does a great job of guiding you and is super friendly. You also learn a lot about the mountain and the history of the gold rush that occurred there. Also the views are absolutely spectacular. Not something I would've been able to see by myself. We even saw a couple of deer! There's a bathroom at the main office before you set out and you have 1 break while jeeping, where you can relieve yourself, if need be. read more

The off-roading experience was great! We did the intermediate so the John Bull trail. Some of it you're kinda like woahhhhh OoOooOo oh crap!! lol cause you're bouncing off the rocks like you're going to break the jeep hahaha but it was lots of fun!! Tyler was a great guide and knew random facts about our route. Had us smell some fresh sage. If you're bringing little ones, be sure to book the larger vehicle and be prepared to use your own car seat. Thank you!! read more

Amazing experience, highly recommended! Tyler was our tour guide and I can't say enough good things about our trip with him. We booked a bit last minute due to lack of snow on the mountains so we kept our snowboards dry. I had some off roading experience and was able to take my own truck, and the rest of the family were able to take one of theirs. Everyone had a great time, from age 9-67! read more

Started off a little rough for my daughter, but our tour guide Bob was super flexible. He slowed it way down and made it a much more enjoyable ride for her and my son.

Booked the Tourzilla with their custom off-road vehicle and Alan as our guide. Amazing experience! Alan was so knowledgeable, communicative, friendly, and you can tell that he loves what he does which I think really played into a great experience. It was a little scary at times as you are in a giant off-road vehicle on a one way road on the side of a mountain cliff and someone another vehicle has to pass you, but Alan knew what he was doing and drove that thing like a pro. Highly recommend as it is a unique experience and a great way to have a fun adventure in Big Bear. read more

Excellent tour! Don't miss this - great, Knowledgeable guys who showed us some amazing sights and trails - they'll do you right! This is the place to go to see BigBear in winter or summer! read more

Highly receommend. The self-guided tours are great as you can go at your own speed. Slow and steady for a family with young kids, or fast and zippy for a couples date, all up to you! Highly recommend packing some sandwiches and drinks to take a break halfway through (most tours are 2-3+ hrs), and they include a cooler in the back read more

Had a great time. The guides are very good at what they do. Good scenery good weather good times

To the driver of the 12 passenger vehicle north bound Poleque Canyon on July 7, 2025 at 1:30 PM, your rate of speed was dangerously excessive. I was the hiker who flagged you to slow down so the giant dust cloud you were making would not choke me and you would not endangner other vehicles on the road. .You sped up and gave the two hands up who cares sign as you drove by as close to me as you could despite have the whole road to a avoid me. Two hands ....none on the wheel, no handed high speed driving close to a pedestrian...that is the impression you want to leave others? Such behavior is not in keeping with the proper use of our forest lands and is not safe for the other users, including those who have paid you for the ride. I have hiked and off roaded in Big Bear for decades, lead tours and all. I know what is safe. I know what is not. What I saw today was unsafe. And rude. There are basic rules to off roading. You need to review those carefully. I would not recommend this tour to others. read more

We had an incredible experience with Big Bear Off Road Experience! Connor was an amazing guide--super knowledgeable, calm, and patient the entire time. We had our little ones riding in the back seat, and he made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. He explained the terrain, guided us through tricky spots, and checked in often, which made the experience both safe and fun. You can tell he genuinely cares about his guests having a great time. Highly recommend this for families or anyone new to off-roading. We'll definitely be back! read more

OMG - where do I begin! I was so nervous about this tour that I was hoping my 18-year son would be the driver. Alas that was not the case, drivers MUST be 19 years of age. So here I go, a mother doing something never imagined, putting my in the Lord above, and in our guide Connor. Connor gave me the confidence I needed, my son's encouragement and calm demeanor helped give me the strength to complete The Squeeze tour. Connor's patience and vast knowledge of the Holcomb Valley not only made this tour thrilling but educational. I highly recommend this tour for it's worth every penny and something me and my boys will never forget. Thanks Connor! read more

The day of my original reservation, my car broke down, and when I called to explain, the owner was super understanding and told me he'd credit me for another day.

If you're heading to Big Bear and want an experience you'll never forget, book an off-roading trip with Alan. Seriously, he's the best!

You can tell he's passionate about what he does and genuinely wants everyone to have a great time.The views were unreal, the terrain was exciting, and Alan's stories and humor made the day even better.

Desi, the owner, and Cameron, our guide, provide a fantastic experience for the adventurous. We did an expert-level trail, and put our highly upgraded jeep through some highly technical trails. Desi scouted the trails in the morning to make sure we didn't take a trail that was too icy. Cameron drove the lead Jeep, jumped out, and ran back to us to take videos on our phones and guide us through the treacherous, thrilling areas. The only nit was that the Jeep's interior was a bit dusty, but on these kinds of trails, it's hard to avoid. read more

Tyler was so friendly and welcoming. We went for 4th of July and we were the only ones on tour. He knew this was our second time going on tour and he went over the trails and took us on a new one. He made sure we were comfortable and was very knowledgeable about all the trails and area. During our expedition he made sure we were ok at all times and gave us so much history about the trails over the radio. He is a botany enthusiast and was telling us so much about the plants, flowers and their history. He even made a few stops to give us some flowers. He made the whole trip amazing! Tyler is so amazing! read more

What an experience that I never knew was a thing. After trying to seek an activity in big bear , I came across this page and me and my fam were so thrilled with the experience . We were fortunate to be able to make the last tour at 5pm and it was such a fun hands on experience . Big shout out to shred MAMBA for making this daunting experience an easy one . Climbing over some sick rocks on "the squeeze" trail was a great intro to off-reading for me . I would come do this again when I'm back in town. read more
