Our tour guide Sonsari was great. She was very informative and patient. We were running late to our meeting destination and she contacted us and changed our pick up point so we could catch up. I really appreciated that.

Austin was an excellent guide. He suggested good photos to take and let us take our time at each stop. We went on the afternoon tour and got to see the sunset at the flats and bonneville raceway and it was breathtaking! Plenty of bathroom stops and water for us to drink. Highly recommend!

The flats are amazing and worth the trip. Our tour guide Michelle was excellent. Just be aware it is a lot of driving out and back and plan accordingly

Tour involved a lot of driving with very few sights to see. We did enjoy views and pics of The Great Salt Lake, the Bonneville Salt Flats and the Speedway. The GSL Visitor Center was also very informative. Our guide did not impart much information to us on the long drive… she could not answer many of the factual questions posed and unfortunately spent most of the driving time talking with other guests about herself. Not very professional and her dress was not appropriate either. She did offer to take pics of us and was very friendly. If you have a car you could do this tour yourself. Also plan on bringing or buying your own lunch. Felt it was very expensive for what we received. Not the usual Viator quality.
