We did the combo rafting and Canyonlands 4x4. Our rafting guide was Paul. He served a delicious lunch and set us up for a safe, fun raft ride. Had lots of laughs and got a little wet! Trailer,aka John, was our guide for the 4x4 ride. He is a walking encyclopedia! So much knowledge of the geology and the park in general. Great fun and lots of laughs with him! The scenery is amazing and I loved being IN the canyon on those cliff side roads! Highly recommend this tour!

WHAT DID I SIGN UP FOR??? The 4x4 Canyonlands tour was terrifying and exhilarating! Driving on the edge of cliffs was so scary for me! Being afraid of heights. But I'm so glad I did it! Seeing things I would have never seen and getting all the great information about the area from Mike our awesome driving and tour guide. The water rafting turned into an option for water Kayaking and it was amazing! Again seeing things from the river and being on the river was so awesome! ** Somehow our trip was canceling on TripAdvisor. Don't know how that happened. It wasn't me so beware and check your reservation before heading to your tour booked through trip advisor!!!!! That being said NAVTEC was awesome and accommodated us right away even with no more open reservations the day we arrived! We were able to take the tours we signed up for! NAVTEC is awesome!
