Experience Options

Las Vegas is a city of lights, shows, and action! And no, we don't mean the strip; venture outside the city for an incredibly unique experience in the Las Vegas desert to get behind the wheel of an excavator

With this excavator experience, you'll get a pure adrenaline rush as you try your hand at moving sand piles and other heavy objects with these massive pieces of machinery. You'll arrive a novice and leave a machine operating expert!

When booking your reservation, you can choose between several different machine options available to operate. Each option lasts between 70 to 90 minutes, and below you can find a complete list of machines available:

  • Skid-steer: the smallest and easiest machine to maneuver; when you climb into the driver's seat of the Skid -steer, you'll be able to move tons of dirt, tire stacks and drive through an obstacle course.
  • 6-Ton Excavator: take the wheel of this machine and dig up to 4.5 meters (15 feet) deep in the Las Vegas desert, moving large dirt piles around the area.
  • Backhoe: don't let the size of this machine fool you; hopping into the cab of a backhoe lets you dig deep and pickup large piles of sand in a machine that weighs over 7,000 kilos (15,432 pounds)!
  • Excavator: pickup massive loads with this large piece of heavy machinery, dig trenches up to 6 meters (22 feet) deep, and move sand piles up to 7 meters (24 feet) high!
  • Bulldozer: make your own path when you take the driver's seat of a bulldozer and carve your way through the Las Vegas desert moving obstacles our of your way.
