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.

This tour with Yantsey was an incredible way to see Arches. The tour itself was adventurous and educational, but for us the guide really made the trip. Yantsey was both knowledge and personable. We had a lot of fun learning and seeing sights we would not have been able to otherwise. The trip was personalized to give everyone on the tour the experience that they wanted.

Booked a solo tour of Arches and Larry our expert driver did not disappoint. We had a 2-car caravan and he mastered the back roads of Arches to give a spectalar and fun tour of several different arches. Got to see all the colors of the sunset.

This was my 4th adventure with NAVTEC and they always deliver an amazing experience. If you're headed to Moab and looking for a tour company, I'm promising you that you will find no better company than NAVTEC. They keep their tour sizes small, so you have great interaction with the guide. Their equipment is first-rate and their guides are extremely knowledgable, fun and are always looking out for your well-being. They are great with adults and kids! On this tour, Buzz, our NAVTEC tour guide, took a friend of mine and her 8-year old daughter into the back part of Arches National Park to see Tower Arch and The Whale's Eye. We traveled in a 4X4. We had been to the front part of the park, so we wanted to see things the "thousands of people" that go in the front door, don't see. Buzz was terrific! He dropped serious geological information on us about the formation of arches and the topography of the region. It was a pleasure speeding 4+ hours with him. He is another example of why you MUST use NAVTEC on your visit to Moab.
