An In-Depth Look at the U-Drive Hells Revenge 4×4 Tour

This tour kicks off at the Xtreme 4×4 Tours facility just outside Moab, at 2182 US 191. From the start, it’s a well-organized affair. The experience begins with a briefing from your guide, who helps you get comfortable with the vehicle. We appreciated how guides like Austin and Aaron took time to explain vehicle controls and safety tips, which is especially reassuring for first-timers.

Once everyone is ready, the real fun begins as you head out to the Hell’s Revenge trail, one of Moab’s most renowned off-road routes. The trail itself is a lively mix of steep descents, challenging climbs, and sharp turns over slickrock, not just a boring dirt path. It’s designed for all levels, meaning even those new to off-roading can enjoy the ride with proper guidance.

The Trail: Hell’s Revenge

Hell’s Revenge is the highlight of this tour, and rightly so. It’s a trail that packs a punch, with steep slopes and technical features that give you a sense of achievement without crossing into extreme danger — especially with a guide by your side. The trail is also home to some interesting geological features and sweeping views of the surrounding landscape.

Travelers rave about how engaging and scenic the trail is. One reviewer described it as “exhilarating,” highlighting the mix of adrenaline and awe inspired by the rugged terrain. Another mentioned that the views of the Colorado River are spectacular, making the adventure even more memorable.

The Experience: Driving vs. Riding

What makes this tour stand out is the opportunity to drive your own vehicle. For many, that’s the real draw—it’s about feeling in control while navigating the terrain. If you prefer to sit back, a more mellow option can be arranged in advance, which is worth considering if you or your group aren’t keen on the more challenging sections.

The tour accommodates up to four passengers per vehicle, with each vehicle being private for your group but not a private tour. This means you’ll share the experience with similar adventure-minded travelers, creating a camaraderie that adds to the fun.

What’s Included

The tour fee of $149.50 covers the vehicle, all fees and taxes, and the essentials—snacks like Rice Krispy Treats and bottled water. These small touches keep everyone energized and hydrated, which is especially important during physical activity under the desert sun.

What’s Not Included

Travel to the meeting point (at 2182 S Hwy 191), gratuities for guides, and hotel pickup are not included. The meeting point is conveniently near public transportation, but most travelers will want to arrange their own transportation or coordinate with local accommodations.

The Guides: Knowledgeable and Personable

The reviews consistently praise guides like Austin, Aaron, and Kevin for their friendliness, professionalism, and knowledge. One reviewer mentioned how guide Austin kept everyone informed with interesting facts about the area and geology, which added an educational element to the fun. Guides are attentive, checking in on everyone’s comfort and even snapping photos, making the experience more memorable.

Is the Price Worth It?

At $149.50 per person, this tour offers good value for an active, guided adventure. Compared to other Moab off-road experiences, the cost is reasonable given that you get to drive your own vehicle and enjoy multiple scenic viewpoints. The inclusion of snacks and bottled water further enhances the value, especially during a physically demanding activity.

You’ll also want to consider that booking about a month in advance is typical. Since most travelers find this experience highly recommended, securing your spot early will ensure you don’t miss out.

Who Will Love This Tour?

This experience suits travelers who are eager for a hands-on adventure and are comfortable with a bit of physical activity. Families or small groups with a sense of adventure will find the shared vehicle setup appealing. It’s also ideal for those who want to learn off-road driving skills in a gorgeous setting.

If you’re after a gentle scenic tour, ask for the mellow driving option beforehand. But if you’re chasing adrenaline and stunning views, this tour won’t disappoint.
