5.00My 17-year old son and I took a backcountry tour of Arches NP last week with Ron as our guide. It was so much fun and my son is still talking about it! Ron really catered the trip to be the best experience for each individual’s needs. He was so knowledgeable and nice! I couldn’t recommend this experience more. Ten out of ten! Thanks so much Ron and Navtec for such a memorable, amazing time!
The vehicle is too...

3.00The vehicle is too uncomfortable for five adults. At the last minute they crammed a 6'5" man between us it was dirty and smelled. Allen our driver was pleasant

5.00We had the absolute best experience with our tour guide Abbie. This is definitely not a tour if you’d like to tour like everyone else. On this, you will go through the back entrance you’ll get to walk alongside the ancient dinosaurs from decades ago, you will get to hike you’ll get to climb rocks in your vehicle and you will get to see Arch’s in a way that not everybody gets to see it. Recommend this tour enough.
