The two-day Arches and Canyonlands Tour with Desert Solitude was by far the highlight of our trip to Utah. Neil is topnotch as a tour guide and so knowledgeable of the National Parks as well as the surrounding area. It was a bonus to have Amber with our tour, she is also a great tour guide and captured some great photos. It was so nice for my husband to not have to keep an eye on the road while seeing the beautiful sights, all so impressive. It was very hot when we were at the Parks which Neil accommodated as much as possible in planning our itinerary. With a private tour we were able to do and see at our pace and get to places the larger tours would not be able to. The backstories he told of the area and knowing the best viewing spots and hikes made the trip so much more interesting than if we had toured the parks on our own. We highly recommend this tour.

Since it is a group tour for up to 6 people, if you can gather 6 participants, I think that it is a tour with a very high cost performance. It was about 4 hours from Salt Lake City to the park, but it was a comfortable drive. I spent about five hours in the park, traversing the delicate, double, skyline and window sections. November is a sunny day, so it is recommended that you can go around efficiently because it is not so crowded. The guides are also very kind and offer a simple barbecue for lunch. He also took a lot of photos and sent them by email. If you have the chance to go to Salt Lake City, take this tour by all means.
