We had a great experience with Matt. He was always funny and kind. He took us through several beautiful places around the park and took several nice pictures of the family.

Thank you so much! I had a blast with you the other day. So much beauty packed with a ton of solitude. The moose was awesome too, even if he was running away lol. Thanks again, and I look forward to having you again in the future. Take Care!
