    Sounds like a solid...

    Sounds like a solid review! If you want a polished version, here it is: Josh, our guide, was friendly and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, we didn’t spot many animals, but the tour was well‑organized and gave great reconnaissance of the area. Perfect for a first‑time visit or if you’re short on time around the area.

    Austin, our guide was very knowledgeable and made every effort for us to see wildlife. We saw deer, elk, horned sheep and plenty of birdlike.

    So accommodating and great scenes!

    These guys were great! First, when we reached out to the company to find out where we should meet them, Josh offered to pick us up even though we weren't on their stop list. Since we were the only ones who had booked the tour they were super accommodating. Then Josh adjusted the time for us to give my husband time to finish his conference class. We loved all the scenic stops Austyn took us on. He was also really nice and took a ton of pictures for us. He also offered to take us on additional stops since we were the only ones and it didn't take him as long to show us all the scenic spots. My only bummer was that it was the middle of the day and with the sun up everything was washed out. So we didn't get the best pics. But that was not the fault of the tour company!

    Thank you for the great review and kind words Katrina. We really appreciate it! Austin and I (Josh) are super happy you both had a great time and enjoyed the hospitality. We have already been discussing ways to ensure there is less of a sun wash out for photos by changing starting times and trying to modify the route where possible, so thank you for including that in your review. All the very best!

    Wonderful - A must do!

    We had a fantastic 3 1/2 hours by being treated to great views, wildlife and wonderful guides. They were very considerate having both a 12 yr old and a 90 year old on board! The trip was well worth the time and money!!

    Response from Host, Dec 2024

    Thank you Lisa. We're really glad you and your family enjoyed the tour. It was fantastic to have you all onboard with Austin and I. Take care, Josh

    Incroyable !
