Cowboy Tour Guide

You will walk with us through this other worldly landscape as our genuine cowboy guides reveal the secrets of these exotic plants and animals to you.

Nature’s Wonders

Learn about local plant and wild life on one of our jeep tours of the Sonoran Desert.

Photo Safari

This is the newest Wayward Wind program. It can be any language or any sized group!

Our new Photo Safari was designed to be easily translated into foreign languages. In fact we currently have this program available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, German and French. With more and more international travelers visiting the Valley, we thought it was time to design something just for them.

With our Photo Safari, you will receive a customized book with your logo. We will supply you with a camera so that you may take the photos that are called for in the book. Participants will be asked to write poems about their team or organization, answer true and false questions about the desert, and share in the team building spirit.

Sonoran Desert Tours

Our Genuine Cowboy Guides

Wayward Wind Tours, Inc. is proud to offer a genuine cowboy desert cookout. What could be more appealing than arriving at a sight, a crackling bonfire, and a scene right out of a western movie to greet your guests. Remember, these are private, remote locations, far from any electric lights or sound of traffic. These campsites are not permanently set; we move them in and out daily. All of the lighting is by fire or gas lantern in the evening. There will be pots of hot cowboy coffee set at the edge of the fire with plenty of blue speckled mugs. There will be iced coolers full of cold beverages. All around the campfire will be simple benches covered with colorful Mexican blankets.

Nighttime in the desert is special because it comes alive. The way the rocks and cactus silhouette themselves against the sky creates an otherworldly landscape that is unforgettable.
