Custom guiding & trips. Your crew. Your kind of dirt.

Start with the riders.
Then draw the route.

A friends’ reunion, a riding holiday, a bachelor party or simply an excuse to get the crew together: tell us what would make it a good trip. More time on the bike, a particular kind of terrain, room for scenery or a longer desert getaway all belong in that conversation.

The plan needs to suit the whole group. Tell us about everyone’s recent desert riding, the bikes you intend to use and the number of days available. We’ll discuss a realistic route and pace before settling the details.

“A group chat is not an itinerary.
We can work with that.”

Bring the wish list.

Your crew and experience

Group size, recent riding and comfort with sand, rocks, loose gravel and hills. Plan around the least confident rider, not the loudest one.

Your time and starting point

Travel window, days available, where you’ll be staying and whether this is part of a bigger Las Vegas or Death Valley trip.

Your bikes and support

Own bikes or rental needs, gear, luggage, meals and chase support. Each element is agreed for your trip rather than assumed to be included.

Your idea of a great day

Terrain, scenery, food stops and time off the bike. Mention any must-sees so we can discuss what fits the route and conditions.

Small bike or big bike?
Say so at the start.

The regular Death Valley Roundup is a small dual sport ride for intermediate and advanced desert riders. No adventure bikes on that ride. If your group rides big bikes, see our upcoming adventure-bike trips so we can discuss a suitable plan separately.

Custom does not automatically mean beginner-friendly. Experience, terrain, bike suitability and trip requirements need to be agreed before a ride is confirmed. Rental availability and any riding gear also need to be arranged in advance.

Leave room
for the rest of the desert.

Turn a riding idea into a longer getaway with a separate stay at RuthVille. Or use our Death Valley visitor guide and Tecopa guide to plan sightseeing, food and a possible hot-springs visit around your riding days.

Lodging, hot-springs access and other extras are separate arrangements unless specifically included in your agreed trip.

Your trip.
Your own plan.

Custom guiding and trips are priced individually, based on the route, duration, group and support agreed. The $399 rental and $299 own-bike prices on this site describe the standard Roundup experience, not a custom-trip quote.

Custom trip inquiries are coming with launch. Public contact and booking details are still being finalized. In the meantime, use the points above to put your group’s wish list together.
