- Karin· October 8th, 2024The trip was well organized full of adventurous activities like hiking in water, mud and very narrow Spooky canyons. Our daily guide Jerry was awesome. Very accomodating and nice. The Zion experience in the Narrows was very nice. Loved the place. Buckskin Gulch was the best part of the trip with a awesome guide named Tabby. Highly recommended. Peek-a-boo and Spooky canyons were quite an experience. Definitely Spooky. Our only dissapointment was that the 5th day activity, to 2 canyons, got cancelled. Jerry was nice to take us to Bryce national Park but it did not make up for the promised activity.Show more
- Fern· July 28th, 2024Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about yellowstone and the grand tetons. If she didn't have an answer she looked it up in our down time. Racheal make the trip fun and interesting. I would rate her as an excellent guide, 11111Show more
