Arches National Park 4x4 Adventure from Moab in Moab booking from $170.73

Arches National Park 4x4 Adventure from Moab

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. For millions of years this area was teeming with dinosaurs.

We pass Balanced Rock, one of the most iconic features of the Park, standing a staggering 128 feet. Landscape look familiar? Indiana Jones, and Thelma and Louise have scenes shot here.

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.

After exploring the backcountry we exit past the three gossips and Park Avenue before your guide returns you to Moab.

What To Expect

Arches National Park

Visit Arches National Park on a 4-wheel drive (4WD) tour that features spectacular sandstone arches and access to areas that most visitors don't see. An expert guide will maneuver your 4WD past red rock highlights such as Marching Men, Tower Arch and Eye of the Whale. Experience these monuments and more up close and learn about the park’s wildlife and history.

Mill Canyon Dinosaur Trail

This 5-hour tour even includes a stop to see fossilized dinosaur tracks, left behind millions of years ago when dinosaurs roamed the region.

Tower Arch

An optional hike to the awe-inspiring Tower Arch begins at the foot of the bluff, where the 4WD road ends. From here, the route is rocky and steep, though short. Tower Arch itself is very large with a 92-foot span and can be viewed from the trailhead for those opting out.

Matt was a great guide as well as driver. Saw parts of Arches very few get to experience. Pretty bumpy ride in spots but a great time

Our tour guide Damon was great! He gave lots of information while out seeing the Arches. The back trails to Eye of the Whale were unexpected fun. Damon even made the tour entertaining by putting up with "when you're older things"! He graciously went and got the step stool out of the back so I could climb into the vehicle:)

We actually did both the Arches Tour and a separate Canyon Lands Island in the Sky tour. The Arches tour was excellent overall. Our driver, Damon, was humorous, knowledgeable, and very accommodating to our requests. And the Arches are worthy of their global reputation. Be sure to checked for National Park Service Timed entry requirements many months before you plan to come. The Canyon Lands tour was very different geologically with some pretty amazing formations. Our driver, Buzz, was more technical in his discussion of what we were seeing. He gave us a good overall understanding, though we wish he had been a little more willing to stop for photo opportunities at some of the sites we were seeing. We attribute this to his schedule constraints. He also told us multiple times how much better the all day Needles Tour was in terms of the Wow factor. Didn't really need that more than once. Most disappointing was that while we were given a great view of the are from low in the canyon, we never got to see the sites from the main upper park road where the Islands in the Sky metaphor. We highly recommend the Arches tour. For Canyonlands, we suggest you drive out the short (15 or so mile) main park road one day, and then make your decision on the lower canyon tour after that. It is a worthy trip, but almost half the time was spent in lands (all visually interesting) before actually entering the park. Neither adventure for people with really bad backs, some limited hiking on the Arches tour. We had very little out of the truck on the Canyonlands tour
