Excellent info and technology

Dana_M, Aug 2025

High quality information, clear narrator, app gps worked great. Excellent (and low-cost) way to get a tour guide!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Tour unavailable due to construction

billigbeth, Sep 2024

No where on the website for this experience was it noted that the scenic road was closed for construction. This experience should not have even been available for purchase. It was useless. The construction has been going on since the beginning of summer so should have been well known.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Billigbeth, I'm sorry to hear about the inconvenience. Our website does mention the construction, but the good news is that the tour you purchased is valid forever, so you can use it once the scenic road reopens. Feel free to email us if you'd prefer, and we can replace your tour with another one of our self-guided audio tours. Let us know if you have any further questions!

Capital Reef tour

The audio tour was great and the views of Capital Reef were amazing. We loved the sights and the information from the tape.

Hi Judy, thank you for taking the time to share how much you enjoyed our audio tour of Capitol Reef National Park. This one surely is included in the Utah Mighty 5 for a reason and we're so glad that you found it as incredible as do we - along with the helpful information from our audio tour. We hope to join you on the road again soon.
