One of the best experiences we did as a family. My kids haven’t stoped talking about it! Our guides were amazing! Our canyon had water in it which was rare and we did get wet and muddy but it only made the experience more memorable! Would recommend this 1000 times!
One thing I will say is it’s not the easiest hike, and the description of activity was vague, so be prepared for an adventure!

Good safe fun but challenging. Get ready for the altitude change when hiking, especially if you live closer to sea level. Will do it again.

Thank you so much for your great review! We’re thrilled to hear the experience was so exciting. We really appreciate your feedback and hope to see you all again for another unforgettable adventure!
Tons of fun, guides Nathan and Dan were great. Overall it wasn't too strenuous until the hike back up at the end, that kicked out butts pretty well. Definitely bring plenty of water if it's hot out.

Thank you for the review Heather. We will be sure to share your kind words with Nathan and Dan. We hope to have the pleasure of serving you again one day soon.
Diane's Throne Slot Canyon was beautiful and the guides were friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Well worth it if you're passing between Bryce and Zion National Parks. Go in the morning. It's cooler.

We had an awesome adventure. Our guides Brandy and Gavin were very informative and patient with everyone in the group. We were in good hands which made this tour really enjoyable.

Thank you for joining us on the Coral Sands tour. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to Gavin and Drew.
We had a great time. Our guides were excellent and talked us all the way thru. Eric says there is type 1 fun and type 2 fun. This tour most definitely is both!! Highly recommended
The morning tour was great fun and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The terrain is beautiful and the UTV ride was a highlight of the tour.
The rappelling was the best part for our group. The canyon was beautiful to climb/walk through. Our guide Eric was a lot of fun and made us feel safe and comfortable with the whole experience. We would go back to them again.
Great, fun, unique family adventure! Our guide Joe was full of information, patient, and kind. Just remember it’s at East Zion entrance an hour away from Springdale.
Fun experience! Our whole family had a great time. Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable! Would highly recommend
Had never done any canyoneering before and wanted to experience this in a Utah slot canyon! We had Molly as our guide and she was FABULOUS in all ways. The groups are kept small which really helps the experience (we had 5 total plus guide). The experience and scenery was so much fun and thrilling!! I only wish it would have been a bit longer - it was everything as described and we did the Coral Sands region. Would repeat in a heartbeat!
Best experience for beginner cayoneering! Must be able to jump off rocks and hike up hill. Being able to go and walk in the cayons were amazing. Riley was the best instructor - kind, safe, comforting my nerves, humble, and funny.
Repelling and a good group. Eric was a good tour guide. He had a lot of patience.
The repelling was way too little.
Very beautiful, very safe and educational. Awesome guides. Will definitely do this again when ee find ourselves back in the area! This company is great to work with.
Joe and Ronnie are amazing guides. Very personable, friendly, and have a gift for putting people at ease. I felt safe during the entire experience and confident in their expertise. Definitely got the bug for canyoneering. 😊
Had such a wonderful time Rappelling beautiful canyons. Mollie & Ryley are amazing guides!
Worth it!
Riley and Mollie were absolutely amazing guides. It was our first time canyoneering and we had a blast. Would definitely do this again!!!
Rock repelling was the most enjoyable experience in this canyoneering tour. Guide Landon is excellent in what he is doing, and funny. Everything we did felt very safe.
Carolyn was great! This was a first experience for all of us so we were a little nervous but the guide was fantastic and made us feel confident! Highly recommend this exper!
Highly recommended to everyone. We were all first timers. I just wished we had more rappelling. We did 5 for the half day that we purchased & completed in 2.5 hours instead of the 5.5 hours. The highest drop (70 feet) & the slot canyons were full of fun. Brig our tour guide was very patient with us & felt safe 😉. We would do it again & again
Very much worth doing- canyon was breathtakingly beautiful- something you wouldn’t find on your own and our guide Riley was fabulous! She made it easy for this 67 yr old lady! Hope to do it again!
The repelling was all that I expected and then some. Guide was very professional and patient. Would highly recommend
The best tour!!!
Great tour guide and they put together a great group of people with a lot in common . It was a great opportunity to meet new people!!
Justin was very knowledgeable and experienced and made us all feel comfortable. This tour was worth every penny and I highly recommend. Such a great way to explore Utah!
It was outstanding. The rappelling was made easy by Justin our guide and the views from the bottom of the canyon where amazing. Worth every penny. I would highly recommend this tour
We really enjoyed the outing and the guide is excellent! A little expensive but worth.
