Greg was knowledgeable, funny and helpful. We got to see lots of cliff dwellings from afar. I do think it would be a good idea to include walking to a cliff dwelling, like Step House. It was a lot of getting in and out with shirt distances between sites. Walking down to a dwelling would have made the tour 5 star.

Yes Katey, that is why we offer custom tours to Wetherill Mesa for those with more time for the extra hour of driving and the mile and a half of hiking to get to Step House and back since this is more than can be done on a half day tour. Thank you!
