5.0Never again would I come to Canyonlands and not do this trip. Over and over and over. It was that good. We spent four solid hours seeing amazing views, including wildlife, and getting pics of a lifetime. I promise you wont even begin to see the park like this from the roads. Breathtaking.
Top notch experience!

5.0Our guide, Mark, was excellent. He was welcoming and friendly. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the park, the geological formation of the terrain, and the backstory of many aspects of the park. The vehicle was spotless and had modern electronic hookups. We had limited time to see the park, and this tour was perfect for us in that we felt it was a thorough overview and we didn't feel like we missed anything.
Great trip Great views Great guide
