- William· May 21st, 2025The tour was excellent. Well planned itinerary, hotels were nice, food was plentiful. As expected, I had to worry about nothing. The surprise was the friendliness and expertise of the guide, Brandon. He built a relationship with each of us (11 on trip) and adapted it for each of us. He knew the options available in the parks and explained much about the environment - from birds to plants to rock formations.Guy knows his stuff. If you are able, get on one of his tours!Show more
- Gary· April 26th, 2025Our guide Steven was extremely knowledgeable and as beautiful as all the parks were, his explanations of how and when their formation occurred enhanced the experience. I have seen quite a bit of the world beauty this planet has to offer, from Iceland to the Canadian Rockies but nothing like the Mighty 5 parks in Utah. This should be a must for any bucket list and this tour gets you there in 5 days without feeling rushed.Show more
- Mary· April 21st, 2025This was an amazing trip. Our trip began with breathtaking Zion National Park. Everyday following we visited a new park just as majestic and exciting with a good mix of hiking and sightseeing from the very comfortable Mercedes van. The views took my breath away. This is a well planned out excursion. Erin (our guide) was very personable, attentive and informative. He made sure that guests needs and abilities were taken into consideration. He suggested hikes for different levels of fitness and there was something for everyone to enjoy. I highly recommend this trip.Show more

Asked on January 4th, 2025When will you have dates for 2026. We're looking at Jan or Feb of 2026 for this tour. Can we not do the snow shoeing or skiing that day? We're in our 70s and active but not athletic so a leisurely stay st the lodge or hotel might be better. We love the other adventures.
- Southwest Adventure ToursOperator•Written January 2025
You wouldnt have to participate in those 2 activities if you didnt want to. We would suggest other options you could do instead of the activities. I will check with my partner on Monday about getting our 2026 reservations on Tour radar. We have them on our website so i know they are ready. Let us know if you have any questions.
