Great adventure. Without a guide and their vehicle, this is an area of the country that we would never have seen. The views were incredible. Cody, our guide was fantastic. He was a constant source of information and an incredible driver! He made the trip special! This is an adventure, that you don't want to miss! Thank you.

I loved the small group and accessing backcountry roads for a unique and amazing experience! Our driver and guide Marcia was the absolute best!!! Her expertise was amazing! We had a wonderful day and learned so much about the beautiful Canyonlands and arches!!

Our guide Adam was competent and knowledgeable with a dash of entertainment. This trip was thrilling but we never felt unsafe. So much fun! One of the top experiences we had in the five Utah parks.

We really enjoyed the tour to Canyonlands. Abbie was a great and very enthusiastic guide. There was also no way we could have done this tour with our own (rental) car.

Andy was spectacular! Super knowledgeable, very interesting and likable.
