    The 4x4 is an a/c jeep, very nice & clean. Marc was beyond great, very knowledgeable and fun! Made the trip so much better & learned a lot!

    Highly recommend this tour! Great way to see the backcountry of both parks. Such beautiful areas only accessible by 4x4. Thank goodness for Guide Bill’s great driving skills !!Lunch was great and we had snacks and water along the way. Plenty of bathroom breaks as well. Thank you Bill for a great day that far exceeded our expectations. We appreciate your vast knowledge of the area. Kurt and Shelley

    Wonderful experience with Bill! He is extremely knowledgeable of the area and was very entertaining. He showed us things that I probably would have walked past if he didn’t point it out. His 4x4 experience is superb, wouldn’t want to be on those back roads with anyone else.

    Mark was incredibly knowledgeable about the parks. He was also very helpful, taking difficult pictures for us, and helping me navigate difficult terrain. We enjoyed every aspect of our tour! Highly recommend!!

    One of the great advantages of this tour was the access to the parts of both Arches and Canyonlands that we would not have experienced on our own. Our guide Mark knew both parts well and allowed us access to places that most tourists would not see.

    Thank you!

    A must do!

    Rick was a great tour guide & driver. We were so glad we booked this full day tour. It allowed us to experience tucked away places we would have otherwise missed all together. The backcountry jeep experience was adventurous to say the least, it was a blast to ride to all the secluded areas. This tour is a definite must do when visiting Canyonlands and Arches.

    Backcountry Arches & Canyonlands National Parks full day tour was great from the start and just got better. Our guide Casey was very warm and personable. Mike also made sure we were enjoying our time on our lunch break. We are so glad we had the tour instead of trying to do these two parks on our own. I’d say Mike runs a first class business and my husband is already talking about returning for a river trip in the future.
