Palo Duro Creek Ranch - Fun road. Beautiful scenery. - Tours Near Me - Canyon, Texas

Super fun for the whole family, amazing tour guide, knowledgeable and fun, this experience made our trip to northern Texas amazing.

So, our tour was cancelled due to the Humvee catching fire prior to our time slot. We were unable to rebook but was told we would be credited the full amount back to our credit card. Almost 3 weeks now....no refund has been posted to my account. I have had no response to my e-mail or phone call to the business. We really wanted to go on this tour as I'm sure we would have enjoyed it, but come on....if this is a legit business, just give us our credit please. read more

Case is the man. My dad and I had an impromptu panhandle weekend trip and Case was our guide when we booked a canyon tour. He provided a lot of history, gave great recommendations and was just an all around badass dude. Would definitely recommend taking a tour with him and would def come back. read more

I cannot recommend their 3 hour Jeep Tour enough. My son and I had an amazing time doing this. If you are visiting Palo Duro Canyon and you can only do one thing, THIS jeep tour (humvee tour) is that one thing that you should do! Our guide Case was an absolute BLAST and left ginormous shoes for any other tour guide to fill. This hilarious modern day cowboy will entertain you, educate you, and take you on a fun and thrilling adventure through a very generous portion of the canyon. I regret that I can only experience this for the first time once. Cannot. Recommend. Enough. Thank you, Case!! read more

Case gave us an exciting wild 3 hour ride highlighted by interesting stops, information and history of the canyon, plus answering questions. I Lost my phone somewhere during the ride, didn't know it until ride was done. Panic! Case found it during a tour later that day! Case is the best. read more

Weather was perfect yesterday 1/3/21 and even though I wanted to go horseback riding and couldn't as there was no more availability and my reservation the day before for my birthday was cancelled due to weather at another facility, the jeep tour was a much better experience and convenient! My kids and I had So much fun! Our jeep tour guide, Chris, was awesome and funny! Will go back! Glad I found this place before heading home! read more

Our family just got finished with our exciting jeep tour this afternoon. What a ride! Our driver, Case, knew so much about the canyon and was very entertaining. We did the one hour ride and it was great! We already agree that we will do the longer one next time, so that we can go all the way down to the bottom. The views are spectacular and the jeep is such a fun experience. It's remarkable the terrain it can handle. Awesome time! Thanks, y'all! read more

My husband, 3 kids and I did the 3 hour jeep tour. Our driver Casey was funny, welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable about the canyon and surrounding area. Not only was it a great experience for the adults but my kids were engaged and loved it! Thank you and see you next year. read more

Omg, the three hour jeep tour will forever be a fantastic memory! I was worried that three hours would be too long, but it wasn't! Case, the tour guide, was amazing! He told great stories and knew tons of interesting history. I will definitely come back and do it again! Do yourself a favor and take this tour!!!!!!!! read more

This review is for the Palo Duro Jeep tour at Palo Duro Creek Ranch (formerly Elkins Ranch). We booked a Jeep tour online months in advance. When we arrived for the tour the gate was shut and it stated it was closed. I tried calling for 20 minutes while sitting at the gate, and messaged them on Facebook. Finally, I received a call back and the gentleman said he was on the other line and seemed annoyed I had called so many time. Maybe 5 in 20 minutes? I told him that I was worried and didn't know what was going on. He asked me what I meant. I told him we had a 4:00 tour...? He said all tours had been cancelled and we should have been notified. I have no emails from them and no calls. Then he said my name was scratched out which meant I had cancelled, which I did not. We set the miscommunications aside and he offered us a longer tour the next morning for the same price. Fair enough. We arrived the next morning and the woman had no idea whether we had paid or not, but took our word for it. We were excited to see the Blackhawk advertised and pictured on the website. We actually booked the "the Blackhawk" tour. There was not a Blackhawk anywhere. I don't think they have one. They have some rundown humvee's that literally weren't working. We were told we would do the tour in a Polaris ATV. Ok, but not what we were promised. The tour started on the flat farm land where we fed the cows. It had snowed a few days before and many of the trails weren't passable which is understandable.... but it was obvious they were using up time for the 2 hour tour. Once we finally got to the canyon, it was incredible. The lady doing our tour was very nice and knowledgeable. She stopped at photogenic spots and took our photos. The tour ended 20 minutes early, and we spent the first 30 minutes feeding cows... so about 40 minutes of the two hour tour was spent not in the canyon. But hey, I only paid for a one hour tour. I wouldn't have been pleased if I had paid the 2 hour tour price. I understand many of the trails weren't passable, but if you can't complete a 2 hour tour due to conditions, just sell the one hour tour. Felt bad for the other couple who purchased upon arrival. Overall, the main office area seemed rundown. It needed paint, and the road driving in needed some work. There were a lot of disappointing communications, but the views were stunning and our tour guide was very nice. read more

This was an amazing 3-hour Humvee adventure that was crazy fun!!! Case was the driver, and he was filled with so much information about the history of Palo Duro Canyon. The views were incredible!! We went from the top of the canyon down to the floor and back up again. So worth it!! read more

Would give 10 stars if possible. We did the 2hr tour and had a fantastic time. The views were incredible but what made the experience even better was our guide, Case, who was knowledgeable, funny and entertaining. Loved riding in the Humvee, seeing wildlife and learning about the historical significance of the Palo Duro Canyon. It is not just a vehicle tour, you get to get out and take pictures and walk the canyon floor. Sorry future customers but we told Case they should be charging more for these tours as they are a great experience. read more

We had booked ahead for a 2 hour tour having read positive reviews on Trip Advisor. It has to be said that at first glance the base looked a real mess and unprofessional - however we were told that a bad storm had swept through the site in recent weeks and ripped the aluminum roof off the garaging location and damaged the building. It has to be said though that the site is a bit broken down - including one Humvee that was up on blocks. Not an auspicious start. Then the previous trip arrived and it was good to hear their laughter and obvious joy of the riders at the end of their adventure. Our spirits were lifted and increased even more when our guide/ driver Chris introduced himself- a real character who was easy to like straight away. There were 6 of us on our trip plus Chris. From the moment we started out until we got back Chris was full of information and entertainment - stopping at various viewing sites en route from rim to canyon bottom where we stopped to view the hoodoos before reversing our drive. It's quite a hairy drive - handled with aplomb by our driver. I thoroughly recommend this activity , it's not cheap, but we certainly enjoyed every minute. I would say though that they need to square away the base site in order to give a better first impression. read more

Had Case for the guide today 2/18/22. Three hour unbelievably great tour. Beautiful country, knowledgeable guide and the terrain was like the best Disney ride ever. Highly recommend. read more
