5.00A great way to explore a wide variety of the area topography with a very knowledgeable guide. Gabrielle was friendly and a natural at helping us make the most of our adventure. The slightly rainy day meant a great opportunity to take some amazing photos. Will definitely use again for other tours next time we are in the area. It was well worth our time and money. Highly recommend.

5.00The tour was absolutely fantastic! Gabrielle our guide is so nice and friendly. A wonderful person to take you on a tour of some places that we never would have discovered on our own. Extremely knowledgeable of the area and really took extra time to make it a personal experience, and even had some photo and video opportunities planned. Our family had a lovely time! Thank you!

5.00Gabrielle was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the Twin Falls area and history and a delight to talk to. She was interested in what we, the participants, would like to see, and had great ideas of things/places to see on our own time. I look forward to coming back and booking her Crater to the Moon tour - it sounds right up my alley! Mahalo, Gabrielle!

5.00It was just the perfect sampling of Idaho Southern Region that I was looking since this was the 49th state I have visited. The tour lives up to it name and takes you to spots you would have difficulty finding for yourself in the same amount of time. After hiking with my friend in Utah and AZ, it was a treat to be driven to spots to take pictures and do minimum walking. We saw a bald eagle, a box canyon, waterfalls, a slot canyon and visited a nature center. With the exception of a small stuff Hedgehog (Isabella) accidentally decided it wanted to camp at the Balanced Rock State Park, I had a wonderful time. The good news is the critter was found after the tour, and she decided there were too much wildlife around for it to live in the wild.
A very interesting tour

5.00Great tour with Gabriella There were only four of us on the tour and the places Gabriella took us to we would never have found. The different canyons were interesting and the balanced rock was amazing.
