Awesome experience for me and my 8 year old daughter, who had a blast. Smooth riding and great views. Would definitely do again. My advice to anyone looking to go would be to wear sunglasses, to prevent dust in the eyes, but still great experience without.

Desi was our tour guide for an off-road jaunt into the mining history of the area/Holcomb Valley. Desi is super down-to-earth and knowledgeable and made the tour really fun. His own passion for local history is infectious and he was sure to share generously. Desi also insisted on taking some great photos of our family at interesting landmarks. I would use Big Bear Off Road Experiences again in a heartbeat to explore the area further and learn more local history.

If you haven’t experienced Tourzilla, it’s a definite must!!! We had an amazing time this past weekend. Desi our tour guide has such a beautiful personality and so knowledgeable about the Big Bear area and mountains. His persona and energy was great, our tour was the best. The snow covered mountains were just so beautiful and the ride in Tourzilla itself was AWESOME!! I totally recommend The Jeep experience while vacationing in Big Bear, we’re definitely going back. Thanks Desi for a memorable experience.

A great time on this trip, Desi was our lead and he was fantastic on the trail and also the history of this place.Seeing the views, snow and clean landscape was amazing. Highly recommend this adventure during the winter. It’s not something you get to see in big bear unless you have a 4x4.

We had the best time for my fiance and my co-Ed bach experience. There were 11 of us and we didn’t know what to expect, but it was such a blast getting to see all of these incredible views and hearing the history of big bear. Desi is the best. He’s extremely knowledgeable and puts tons of time into every detail, including the awesome playlist. Going into the mine was a highlight, and ending the ride in town blasting our music and getting dropped off at Murray’s was perfect. Highly recommend

Thanks a million Desi! It was me and my wifes 10 year anniversary and our first time on Tourzilla, but it was better than we could have ever imagined. The ride, the views, the in depth guided tour was AMAZING! The soundtrack throughout the tour was on point! We vibed to every song! Also, thanks for the custom made snowman! Will definitely do this again with the rest of the family.

This was an amazing experience and our family highly recommends it! Desi was awesome and our kids had a blast! Loved the music, views, off-roading experience and the truck was super comfortable! Don’t second guess and book this trip today 🤗 (and ps this is not a sponsored review, this company was recommended to us and we came in as a blind customer)

Des was our off road tour guide and did an exceptional job on explaining some of the history behind Big Bear in the 1800’s.He took us to Holcomb Canyon where gold mining started back in 1800’s. Very knowledgeable on gold mining settlers’ history. The tour included a couple stops at gold mining sites which I thought was pretty cool. Also, stopped at top of mountain for some of the most amazing views. At the top, my husband and I saw parts of Lucerne Valley, Mojave Desert and Baldwin & Big Bear lake.I definitely recommend doing the Off Road Experience Tour with him. It was amazing. Also if you plan on doing this tour, dress warm during winter so you are comfortable and can enjoy tour when you’re not freezing. Holds up to 12 people if you plan on taking a big party.This is a must do! You will not be disappointed. My husband and I will do this tour again.

The absolute best! Called last minute and Desi was able to get us on the tourzilla. It was such a good ride and my sister and I had the best time. We were able to get out to the cave through the snow and it was well worth the walk.

We were looking for something different and fun to do and came across Big Bear Jeep Experiences… and it did not disappoint. It ended up being the highlight of our weekend and was a such a blast. Our tour guide, Desi, was friendly, a great photographer, and gave fun bits of local history.

We had a blast. The trail was challenging for a first time “wheeler”, but Tyler was an awesome coach and got us through everything safely. Speaking of Tyler, what a hoot!! We were definitely impressed by both his trail knowledge, but his plant knowledge as well. We are looking forward to coming back and seeing what other trail we can do!!

Incredible experience!!! We came to California from Texas and the off road Jeep experience we did was one of the best memories we will take home with us. Staff was so friendly and willing to answer questions. The route we chose (intermediate) was fantastic was amazing scenery and views. But the best part by far was our guide, Mamba. He absolutely made our experience! We had no idea we would get history and information about the area as part of the trip (there is a radio so he can communicate with you in your Jeep). We loved it. If we ever make it back to Big Bear we will do one of the other experiences they offer. WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Went up with 4 of us. We had Tyler as our Guide. We had so much fun. He was super cool, patient, knowledgeable, and fun. Would definitely go back. If you want to actually put a jeep to work and have fun I’d recommend this place.We did the full Gold mountain trail and was crazy memorable. We had the TJ Jeep. If I did it again I’d do two jeeps so we I could drive more.10/10 experience and was really cool to see how much they cared about the trails too; Picking trash up along the whole route 👍

My friends, family and I make a yearly trip to Big Bear and went on this Off Road experience recently. We had a blast! We had 3 littles under 5 and what an adventure they had. Our tour guide shared so much of the history of Big Bear and we got to explore Holcomb Valley, Belleville Cabin, and entered a real mine. It was a great experience all around. A perfect way to end our trip. Thank you Deisy for everything!

We booked Tourzilla with Desi and he is just the best! He is very skilled at off-roading, kind, knowledgeable and energetic. A few inexperienced/ ill prepared off-roaders got stuck on the trail and Desi was kind enough to help them out, TWICE! And of course the scenery was just beautiful.This is definitely something I would do again. 12/10 I highly recommend.

Amazing experience!! Desi really made us feel comfortable and safe. The ride was fantastic and Desi is super knowledgeable about the area and Big Bear’s history. Best off-roading experience we have ever had. We expected a rough trip in a large 4x4 full of mud and we got so much more. The Tourzilla is amazing and Desi did a great job of stopping at specific locales to give us the history and let us know what we need to see. Plenty of speed and rollercoaster-like fun on the trail, also, for all the thrill seekers. We highly recommend this tour and will definitely be doing it again when we come back!!!

Our tour today was the best part of our trip. Desi was amazing, knowledgeable, fun and showed us the best time ever. The truck was smooth as can be yet we went on amazing off-road trails. I cannot recommend this tour enough. We had 7 year old kids with us and they loved it just as much as the adults.

This has to be one of the best times I’ve had! Tyler is an incredible guide. Besides showing us how to climb the rocks, he would point out landmarks, types of foliage, and historical facts. I couldn’t imagine a better guide. We did the 4 hour trail and the time flew by.

I am a returning client. This is the most fun to be had on the mountain. This time, we were in the snow, mud and ice and took on a more challenging adventure. Tyler was absolutely amazing. His personality and enthusiasm made the outing even more special.

Amazing experience!We booked this experience last minute with very little expectations. Desi made sure we had a great time. And let me tell you, he’s a beast behind the wheel. Not only did he show us a great trail, taught us about Big Bear history, played some great music. We also got to see him pull 2 cars out of being stuck on the trail.Stand up guy, amazing experience, breathtaking views. Book the experience. You’ll be happy you did.

Our lead driver was funny and very nice. Excellent guide to take us throw the trail. The experience is our second time with Big Bear Off Road Experience. We would do it again. We had 4 people fitting comfortably in a five seat jeep. We had a lot of fun, and would do it again!

What an experience! My first time off the road! Tyler was absolutely amazing! Great instructor, kids had loads of fun, and loved the mid-trail break with kid friendly snacks! Lots of history and information about the area made it even better! Always felt safe, even doing things that I thought I could not! Great experice for the entire family!

Booked the squeeze trail and had so much fun we came back a few days later for the Gold Mountain trail(awesome to complete a Jeep badge of honor trail!). Both times were truly unforgettable. The views were amazing and our instructor, Cali(we made sure to book with him both trips), was informative, humorous, and very well versed in the trails. He made navigating the obstacles a walk in the park(if the park was made of rocks and up the side of a mountain.) I dont know when the next time well be in the area, but we will be sure to make another stop at BBJE!

A seriously amazing experience! If you love Jeeps and off-roading this is a must no matter what skill level. We brought our small boys and they had a blast. Our tour guide Tory was funny and had very insightful commentary as we went along the trail. So encouraging and just a cool dude.

We had a fantastic time on Tourzilla. The vehicle was awesome and definitely needed - it was a long ride - over 2 hrs - way more comfortable than a jeep. We stopped along the way at least 4 times at key places of interest and walked around. Our guide (the owner of the company) was so informative - very educational learning about the area and talked to all of us and answered our questions. By far, the best excursion in the area! We will definitely be back to take other excursions!

Our first trip to Big Bear, our resort had a black out and the storms brought in snow. We called BBJE and inquired about a refund, a reschedule? The owner Dezi was super cool, suggested we just keep the reservation, explained that the snow was going to make this a highly sought after experience. We had trail guide Cali! Super cool local of 30 years, went through the Jeep detail on harnesses and radio comms, got us on the road and told us all the history about the region we were traveling, via CB radio. The snow made for the most epic views, the trail guide service talked us through the most memorable rock climbing navigation to date. Cali took a lot of time to take photos for us, there was no pressure to buy any over priced photos from some magical cameraman! Granted, we were the only people on this excursion, so if you have a large group, perhaps there isnt the amount of time for all the personal attention. That being said, if they do have a trail cameraman, Im sure that is so the trail guides can focus on a large groups safety. I recommend this be a part of your Big Bear story, thanks Cali, really appreciate your Jeep experience for our amazing Big Bear story!TIP YOUR GUIDES.

Tory was an amazing guide! He was so informative on all of the local history and was very nice about getting out and taking pictures.

We had an amazing time in the UTV tour. Tory was our guide and was extremely knowledgeable, fun, and entertaining. We learned a lot but most of all had a thrilling experience. It definitely exceeded all expectations. Can’t wait to come back to try another tour and bring friends. A must do when in Big Bear. Thank you for an unforgettable experience, Big Bear Off Road.

The Big Bear Jeep Experience allows you to drive a Jeep following a tour guide through some of Big Bear’s scenic off-road areas. I chose The Squeeze tour which is a combination of bumpy dirt roads and a few steep rock climbing sections. I was lucky enough to be the only Jeep on my tour so the tour guide was able to spend the entire time showing us how to navigate the steep trails. The tour guide was funny and highly knowledgeable about Big Bear history and the areas we were driving through. It’s a good introduction to off-roading if you’re new at it. Along the way, there are areas where you stop and get out to admire the scenery and take photos. I highly recommend trying this out if you’re looking for a fun adventure and to see parts of Big Bear that are normally out of reach.

Tourzilla exceeded our expectations! The vehicle was soo comfortable as we explored the back side of the mountain. It was a perfect outing for our womens retreat, and we appreciated the history, geography, and information about the trees and wildlife in the area. Definitly doing this again!!!

A great experience. We had three generations in the jeep and every one had fun. The jeeps are well built for the job. Our guide Charlie was great, he talked my wife through the squeeze rock obstacle in her first ever off-road driving experience. The views are amazing while driving the trail. Highly recommend for everyone who has ever wanted to try off-roading in a jeep.

Review №57

2022-08-28 18:14:12

Omg, we had soooooo much fun doing a Jeep tour with Cali! We did the intermediate tour and it was above and beyond what we had expected! The Jeeps were seriously awesome with 8” lifts and 37” tires and we were able to do off-roading obstacles we could never do on our own. I would highly recommend this company and also mention that they have other tours too. We will probably come back for a Can-Am buggy tour next time! 😛

What an amazing experience!! My family was visiting us in Big Bear from the Bay Area and I wanted to show them something awesome. Enter TOURZILLA!! We got what we expected and so much more. Ive lived here full-time for 22 years and have explored the mountains extensively but little did I know our cool tour guide, Desi was about to school me proper by showing me places and telling history of the area that was new to me. We even met some folks from Taiwan who were hiking the PCT trail to Canada who we picked up to give a ride (there was space in the tour and they only had a few miles to go to the trailhead). The roads were bumpy but Tourzilla handled everything so well, very smooth ride but also super exciting, especially in the way back seats...woohoo!The snowstorm from the day before provided the perfect backdrop for us to explore Holcomb Valley and learn about so much gold mining history. We drove thru fresh snow, deep snow & so much water, the puddles must have been 3 or 4 feet and the truck drove thru em like it was nothing. Oh, and there is a great soundtrack that the tour guide customizes for each tour. We were definitely sining along!I would very much like to do this again in the summer to see the trees with all their leaves and smell the forest as the sun warms up the trees; always reminds me of summer camp, good times! I would recommend this experience to pretty much anyone, we had an 8 and 10 year old with us and they were beyond happy. The adults too :)

Tori was absolutely amazing! We couldnt have asked for a better experience. He was great at instructing us on how to crawl. We took our 12 year old and 6 year old and felt completely safe and comfortable the whole time. Definitely recommend the John bull Jr. Trail. Cant wait to do the harder trail next time!

AWESOME!!! No option. You have to book this! Do the Cam-Am tour. Desi made the trip to and from the launch site so cool. It’s part of the experience. The transition into our Cam-Am was flawless. Tori- Thanks Bro! You made our trip. I never leave reviews, but I had to for this. Totally worth it. Ask for Tori! We look forward to come back and Rip again!Dwayne, Valeska & Santiago

Awesome experience with Desi. He was very knowledgeable about Big Bear and its history and he took us on an incredible excursion out in the mountains to what looked like a winter wonderland. He played great music and kept it as light and fun as possible for us to distract us from the cold. All in all, me and my family had a great time and would recommend to anyone

This was our second excursion with BBJE and it wont be our last We did some snow wheeling with Blake. We brought our 3 to 5 year old kid with us and they loved it. We had no problem getting their car seats in and secure. We always felt safe, but still had a thrill. Theyll cater your experience to your skills and concerns. I highly recommend you do this in summer or winter. Its awesome.

I have now done two experiences with Big Bear Off-Road and both have been fantastic. Both trips had hiccups and the owner Desi has always been more than honest about what the problem is and what options he has to remedy the issue whether it be rescheduling, refunds, or offering a different experience all together. Regardless of what experience you book you will be more than happy with the experience and very well taken care of.

What an amazing adventure in the historical San Bernardino Mountains.First off Id like to thank Charlie for providing an amazing tour through Big Bear! Ive been to the town many times and never gotten to hear about the history behind it.Big Bear Jeep experience provided an amazing day on the trail. Anyone can do this no matter the level of experience you have behind the wheel.Throughout the trip we were encouraged to speak up if we felt uncomfortable or had questions.I would recommend anyone interested in off-roading to go for a ride in on of Big Bear Jeep Experiences rigs.One warning I have is you are going to want to buy a Jeep after.Thank you Big Bear Jeep Experience I hope to be back sometime soon unless of course I end up getting a Jeep.

We just finished an awesome adventure with our guide Tory. We highly recommend this off-road Jeep tour of the Big Bear Valley. Im gonna bring extra undies next time because I peed a little. Twice. I never really understood people that were into off roading and rock crawling. That changed today. Getting away from the normal, being uncomfortable and scaring yourself and really being in the moment is what I am taking away from this experience. Tory is super knowledgeable about the vehicles, Big Bear history and local spots for good eats. We felt the over populated crowds at the ski resorts. Off roading around Red Mud Hill balanced that. Definitely doing this again.

Desi was super knowledgeable and fun, he interacted with everyone in the group, and was also a fantastic photographer!Someone in our group had a knee surgery recently and he was ultra accommodating and made sure that he was good to go every step of the way.Definitely going to book this again when we have other groups of friends and family visiting.

We booked a last second John Bull Jr trip the morning of, they were able to accomodate us and we were the only trip of the day. Sean was extremely knowledgeable and very communicative and a great teacher when my girlfriend and I were both new to offroading and rockcrawling. He was very quirky and had a lot of fun with us as we did with him. Trip took about 3 hours and 45 minutes and was extremely worth the price tag. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone on the fence about booking ☺

Tourzilla is an awesome off-road adventure. Great suspension and comfortable seats. We saw some cool historical gold mine sites and learned about the history of Big Bear beyond Big Bear Boulevard. The scenery was magical - untouched snow everywhere and no campers. Dress warm! Our five and six year old daughters loved it.

We did John Bull Jr with Jesse as our guide and had a ton of fun! He is from the area and gave all sorts of great info about the history of Big Bear and the surrounding areas. The Jeep handled pretty much anything we threw at it and climbed some rocks I didnt think was going to be possible! We had a great time and would totally recommend it!

The family and I were visiting Big Bear and I was looking for something fun for the whole family. I was reading a parent blog and this came up before we went on vacation. I never had thought about rock crawling in a Jeep but thought it would be good during COVID since only my family and I would be in a Jeep. I went to their website read about the different packages. Went to YouTube and watched a couple videos. It looked fun and family friendly. They teach you how to maneuver over the rock obstacles. They suggest the squeeze for families with toddlers. There was a package for a little less and it was only an hour tour. The Squeeze was still for beginners but you got to go to an area (the Squeeze) with bigger rocks that you had to manage to crawl. I booked it online picked my date and time. Day of I was pretty excited. First thing you check in sign a waiver. The guide (mine was Blake, hes really good, more about that later) goes over some rules & safety items as well as liability in case of an accident. You know the boring stuff that they have to do. Then after all parties have been checked in you go down to the Jeeps. Blake assigned a Jeep to everyone, my familys was Red. Since I have toddler Blake helped me install the car seat. The Jeeps have no doors, sometimes no roof depending on weather, there were thunderstorms the 2 previous days so it was on. The weather for our tour was great around low 80s. Really great since back at home were triple digit temperatures. After going over some things we need to know for rock crawling in the jeep (switching transmission to 4WD Lo) you head out caravan style. Each Jeep has a CB radio that you hear info, directions and history throughout the tour. You drive about 10 minutes on the roads to get to the off roading area. When I first got on this dirt road I thought it was bumpy and crazy. But we were still in 2WD. After about 20 minutes of driving on dirt roads learning about the history of Big Bear and the Gold Rush days you get to the point where you switch to 4WD. Then the fun really begins. Blake shows you what to do while telling you on the CB what you should be doing with throttle and steering. The first rock is a warm up but if youve never done it like me it looked crazy. You cant drive a normal vehicle over that rock without something bad happening to the vehicle. After Blake finished, he walks back to help you complete the challenge. He is awesome, very positive and keeps you calm and confident with his commands. There are about a half dozen challenges youre going to conquer. There is one break where you can take some shots of the scenery. Blake will take some for your Christmas cards. My kids really enjoyed it. My older son had fun climbing some of the rocks while we were on break. My little guy kept calling the Jeeps monster trucks and got a kick out of going over the rocks. By the time we switched back to 2WD on the dirt road it felt like a breeze since I had just finished the hard stuff. It was a little sad after putting the Jeep back into 2WD because you knew it was almost over. But I truly enjoyed myself and after completing the Squeeze youre qualified to drive an intermediate tour. I look forward to trying that next time. This was such fun and I never would have tried but it seemed fun and safer during COVID times. Since each group iis in their own Jeeps. I give high marks to the guide Blake too.

Fantastic! Bret was a great tour guide. The whole experience was definitely worth ever penny! Also, if you have the option, be sure to ask for the windowless Jeep. You’ll get a little dirty, but the experience as a whole doesn’t even come close to if you have a fully covered jeep.

Great adventure thru big bear mountains, you get to drive a fully built jeep.Tory our guide did a great job, with his knowledge and expertise in the area our trip was outstanding. He not only keeps you entertained but will also will train you to get in through an interesting route called the squeeze . I could probably give you more detail, but I would preferred for you to experience it. I would leave 10 stars but google only allows 5 . Anyway totally recommend it.

One of the best adventures we have had. My girls were so excited yesterday after our first trip with Tyler that we booked a second adventure for the next day. The guide made the trip, Tyler is by far one of the best guides. He makes you feel welcomed and that no issue is ever to big that we can’t tackle. His knowledge and teaching skills far surpassed my expectations. Having never done any rock crawling ever I would say one trip with Tyler allowed me to gain the knowledge to do it on my own now. Thank you Big Bear Off-road Experience for helping to make our vacation exciting and fun. Thank you Tyler for your patience and teachings.

If you’re a beginner trying to experience off reading, this is definitely the place. I have never driven off road before this, but I did the intermediated trail and Cali eased me through the entire thing making sure everyone is safe.

This was a blast! Ive been interested in off-roading for awhile now, but Ive never done it, and this was a perfect way to try it out. We went on a Thursday and did The Squeeze, but since no one else was signed up for that time, we got a more one-on-one experience with our tour guide, Tory. He was a lot of fun, singing on the radio and cracking jokes, but also super knowledgeable about the history of the town & the best places to eat... it was easily a highlight of our trip!The Jeeps are insane, they practically climb all on their own, and it really gave me a taste for something Ive wanted to try, but didnt know where to start. Tory also offered to give me advice if I ever decide to build up my own rig, lol. These folks are passionate and knowledgeable about what theyre doing, and they seem excited to share that with you.I think this is the kind of thing anyone can enjoy if theyre open to trying something ~off the beaten path~, but if youre itching to try rock crawling and youre on the fence about it, just go for it. Where else can you even DO something like this?!

5 stars! I recently had the pleasure of going on a Jeep off-roading experience in Big Bear, California with a guide named Tyler. It was an absolute blast!Tyler was very knowledgeable about the area and the nature around it. He also took us to some amazing places. We got to see some incredible views and do some challenging off-roading. Tyler was also a great guide. He was very friendly, patient, and incredibly goofy... But most of all he made sure that everyone was safe and having a good time. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an adrenaline rush and a chance to see some beautiful scenery. To make the experience the best you can, Request Tyler for your guide😁

This is the second time we have been on the Big Bear Jeep Experience. Tyler was our tour guide today. He was a great guide. He was very informative with all the plants and history of the area. He created a very fun and exciting atmosphere which made the tour which helped to make the tour a memorable one. We would definitely recommend going on the Big Bear Jeep Experience to anyone especially with Tyler as your tour guide.

Mamba made our second time on the trail amazing & unforgettable. We were the only jeep scheduled so we got a very one on one experience. However, both of our experiences were made pleasant by Mamba & Brent. I highly recommend this for beginners! Even experienced people will have fun & tons of laughs. I look forward to returning!

Hands down this is the best experience for the whole family! Our first trip was in the Jeeps, and we had my 1 year old son, 3 daughters between 6-16 and my 70 year old mother and not one of them wasn’t smiling from ear to ear. We’ve been going on these trips for 7 years, and it gets better and better! Now my oldest daughters can drive their own and bring their friends. The Can Am side by sides are a blast, fast and smooth brand new machines! I could go on and on, but I will say this… the trip guides are top notch filled with local knowledge of mountains and history, which they fill you in throughout the trip with radio communication. And a ton of off road experience obviously.If you don’t go, you’re missing out!

We did the can am experience and the Jeep experience. Both were excellent. Chris was a driver for the con am. He was knowledgeable and friendly. It was his first day doing the tour himself. He still had his trainer with him but didn’t need him. Tyler was our guide for the Jeep. Awesome guy. Very friendly, caring, and funny.

We had such a blast! Tory was an amazing guide and the epitome of grace under pressure. Our Jeep had electrical trouble shortly after we took off and it couldn’t be fixed, so he let us jump into the guide Jeep and kept going. He was very knowledgeable about the area and about 4 wheeling. AND, he’s hilarious!!! We’d do it again in a heartbeat.

What a great trip! We had a party of 8 ranging from 5 years old to 70 years old. Everyone had a great time and learned a lot along the way! Tyler was a great guide with tons of knowledge and history of the area! Would do it again if we come back to the area.

Mamba is the BEST tour guide ever!!! So patient with us as it was our first time off roading and absolutely amazing experience with incredible views!!! 10/10 recommend. Also shout out to Desi for reserving the experience for us. So hospitable and friendly, and amazing energy from both Mamba and Desi. Highly recommend the John Bull Jr trail and ask to go with Mamba for an unforgettable experience.

We had the best time at the big bear off road experience! Johnathan (aka Mamba) was our tour guide and he made the experience that much better!! Even though it was our first time off-roading, he made us feel very comfortable and safe! And to top it off, he’s a great photographer and will definitely get you those insta worthy pics LOL

Amazing just amazing! Tyler the tour guide is a sweetheart love his sense of humor and the way he guided the tour. I have never had this much fun offroading. I have been on other offeoading tours but this one definatly was thr best. Tyler if you have other trails that you offer tours please let me know i would love to try this again. He gave us plenty of bathroom brakes and we felt very comfortable being on this tour with him. This tour was so adventourous. Thank you again for this amazing experience. 🥰

Amazing experience overall. I rented a jeep with them and I had the Time of my life. We climbed huge boulders, as well as crawling through ravines. It was more fun than I imagined. Everybody enjoyed it, very good tour guide, who explained everything out there and guided us through the largest obstacles.

We came to Big Bear with no set plans as we live in Orange County and just needed a get away. Big Bear Off Road Experience stores their Can-Ams right next door to where we are staying. I looked up off roading on Yelp and BBORE popped up with great reviews so I called and talked to Desi who said they had a 1230 tour going out the next day. Tori was our tour guide and did an absolute fantastic job. We did a 4 hour tour and had the best time! Between the helmet intercoms and the super knowledgeable Tori we raced and climbed black diamond trails and never felt unsafe or uncomfortable. I can’t recommend this tour enough to anyone who wants to have a super enjoyable experience exploring the national forest.

As an experienced Jeeper, I can attest to the authenticity of the Big Bear Jeep Experience! Took my friend for his birthday so he wouldnt feel guilty if he damaged something on my rig (his first time offroading), and both he and I thoroughly enjoyed the time. I was worried it would equate to the typical snowmobiling experiences where you just follow a guide riding in circles, but these trails and the jeeps were the real deal! The guide was also very friendly and informed about the area.

Simply an incredible experience. The views were breath taking and our tour guides Mamba and Tyler were nothing short of exceptional. Tyler and Mamba not only allowed us to explore the terrain but were close enough to provide their expertise when needed. I hope to comeback again in the coming weeks to take on the Golden Mountain and Squeeze Trail.

Never off-roaded before and ended up having a beyond awesome experience! From the van ride with Mamba to the tour guide in Tory, everybody was so cool and fun to talk to… and really knowledgeable. They help you feel comfortable in some really sketch terrain, which makes you confident to challenge yourself a bit. We went fast, climbed rocks, dropped in, and lots of other skills I can’t remember. It was BEAUTIFUL scenery, way prettier and diverse than I expected it. Truly unforgettable. I’ll be back and dragging other people with me. Epic!

Amazing experience! My husband and I LOVED this adventure. First time off roading and our tour guides Cali and his daughter were great! He was a great teacher at how to maneuver the Jeep over rocks and through steep areas. We learned many things about the history of the area too. Beautiful scenery! We will definitely be back for the next trail. We did the squeeze this time :) 👍👍 thank you for a great trip!

Wow! Desi was amazing. Highly knowledgeable, highly skilled. Felt totally comfortable my first time behind the wheel of a 4x4. Great scenery. Many historical nuggets about the area. Totally recommend!On another note. Of all the excursions and tours Ive ever been on, this was the first one where the tour didnt try to charge us for pics and videos. Used our phone so we have all the memories. For free. Thanks Big Bear Jeep Experience! Will definitely come back.
