If you’re a traveler looking for an adrenaline rush, look no further than the Viator 2023 Experience Awards: Top 10 Adrenaline Rush Experiences. Based on Viator user reviews, the most heart-pounding adventures for thrill-seekers have been revealed.

From off-roading tours and zipline adventures to UTV rides and slot canyon exploring, these exhilarating experiences will leave you with memories to last a lifetime. There’s nothing like the rush you get steering a motorized vehicle over rough terrain or flying through the air high above waterfalls and trees, and when you combine that with exploring a new destination, you’ve got a top-notch travel experience.

Coming in at number one in the U.S. is the Hell's Revenge 4x4 Off-Roading Tour from Moab. For this thrilling tour, you’ll hop on a UTV to zip around sandstone domes and slickrock ledges while taking in views of Negro Bill Canyon, Abyss Canyon, La Sal Mountains and the Colorado River. At number two is the Koloa Zipline in Kauai, where you’ll fly through a lush forest over the Waita Reservoir. A private UTV tour to Peek-a-Boo, an off-the-beaten-path slot canyon in Utah’s Zion National Park comes in at number three.

Rounding out the list of the top ten most thrilling experiences in the U.S. are a UTV slot canyon tour in East Zion, a zipline tour over KoleKole Falls on Hawaii Island, a RZR tour of Hidden Valley and Primm from Las Vegas, another zipline adventure on Hawaii Island, an ATV/UTV adventure in Moab, a Pikes Peak Jeep tour and a jungle zipline tour on Maui.

Read all about these adventure tours (and book if you dare) on Viator’s website.
