We are from the Netherlands and we did this tour to see canyonlands and our guide, Ric Otero was amazing! He was really nice and asked us questions and told about himself. He also told us everything about canyonlands and the animals and we even saw the wild animals. This was an amazing experience, thank you!

Fun way to see Canyonlands in an intimate, AC and slightly thrilling ride. Would highly recommend this tour for visitors pressed for time.

For the full experience of Canyonlands, book this tour! Our guide, Kevin, was informative and handled the curves and cliffs of the canyon with ease. On a 100+ degree day, we were comfortable in an air-conditioned suburban between the many stops. Highly recommend!!!
