Overview

Hop into a Toyota Land Cruiser with your expert guide and head north from Moab to the backcountry entrance of Arches National Park and avoid the crowds.
Our first stop is to see dinosaur footprints as we pass through Utahraptor State Park.
After entry to the National Park, we'll pass Balanced Rock, one of the most iconic features of the Park, standing a staggering 128 feet!
The 4X4 trail into the backcounty climbs a short but steep rock wall passing sandstone fins, towering pinnacles and tall spires known as the Marching Men. We stop at Tower Arch for an optional hike.
As you travel along the track, hear informative commentary about the geology, wildlife and history of the park.
We make another stop at Eye of the Whale for an optional hike to a seldom visited slick rock playground named Herdina Park.

5.00Not to miss this experience when in Moab. Our guide Ben made it special because he is from this area. He added a personal touch to the tour.

5.00Be aware off road means bumpy with occasional really rapid whiplash moves. Be sure you’re seated and hold on well. The views were well worth it. Wonderful vistas, fascinating close up details and thought provoking history were all handled with ease by our guide John.
Spectacular

5.00We did the half day morning tour with Ron. We only had 2 days in Moab while doing the “Mighty 5” park loop and wanted to maximize our experience. This experience/tour was one of the best of our trip. We saw amazing views as well as learning a lot about how this landscape came to be. We took 2 short hikes and had two arches completely to ourselves. Ours was a back country trail, so be prepared there are some bumps and humps but it’s all worth the unique experience of places you get to go that we could have never had without a guide. Would definitely recommend.
Best excursion ever!

5.00Such an amazing tour from Ron! Highly recommend the backcountry if everyone is able. It is spectacular and Ron is so very knowledgeable. Went with teenagers and they both loved it! Arches is nice from the pavement, but it’s breathtaking from the back roads. Don’t miss a chance to do this tour, you won’t be sorry.

5.00We really had a great time with our driver Abby. She was very knowledgeable and a great driver. The only issues we had with our trip was it we were not made aware that there would be another couple riding with us. My wife had to ride in the middle back seat which made it hard to see everything. We still had a good time and would recommend.
