Private 3/4 Day Canyoneering Tour in Moab

Overview

Desert Highlights is Moab's original canyoneering guide service. This full day canyoneering tour visits a route that Desert Highlights' founder created as a technical guided canyoneering route in the late 1990's. Here, we explore an area that most people would not visit on their own. With the use of ropes and other technical gear, a competent guide and a sense of adventure, we are able to explore areas that are otherwise inaccessible. The Moab desert is our home and we are passionate about sharing it with others. During your guided tour, you will not only safely descend a beautiful, water-carved canyon, but you will learn about the flora and fauna, geology and history of the area that we are so lucky to call our backyard.

As was previously mentioned " The Best Experience from Start to Finish" - Our group had a range of experience from none to boy scouts 20 years ago to climbing gym. Melissa at Desert Highlights answered our many questions and set us up with a couple route options that offered the best for everyone. Ideally we wanted a mixed bag of hiking, climbing, rappelling and hoped to learn a bit on the way - With Melissa's and our guide Jake's guidance - Desert Highlights nailed it. Best day trip ever. I mean it, this was the highlight of our week in Moab! Our guide Jake, was super professional, safety conscious, a fun dude to hike with and really made the day enjoyable for all. He helped each individual of our group gain confidence through the day, ensured we didn't die :) and taught us all a few things along the way. Help figuring out a move was only a question away but never pushy. We all really enjoyed the experience and would not hesitate to join them again. Even the trepidatious members of our group said they would go out again and were all jelly legs and smiles by days end. I highly recommend giving them a call, let them know what's important to your group and listen to the suggestions they lay out - We will definitely book another trip with Desert Highlights next time were in town!

Thank you so much for your kinds words and high recommendation! It's really important to us that we create an experience for each group that meets their goals and expectations. It sounds like we delivered :) Jake had a great time out there with you guys. As you learned, there is a lot more canyon fun to be had in Moab and the surrounding areas, so we'll look forward to getting out with you guys again in the future! - Melissa

Had an awesome full day at Granary Canyon with Jake. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Everything from the down climbing, the amazing arches, and of course the rappels was awe inspiring. Jake did a wonderful job keeping us safe and sharing his knowledge about the local area and the environment. Do not hesitate to book at day with Desert Highlights, you are in good hands.

Booked this trip pre-pandemic but had to cancel. So glad we were able to re-book this adventure with Desert Highlights. We did a multi-day trip with Leprechaun Canyon the first day, Blarney the second, and a campout overnight. Plenty of repels and down-climbing that our kids (ages 14 and 10) and the adults enjoyed. Kai was an awesome guide and prepared delicious meals for us the entire time we were out. Would definitely book another trip with Desert Highlights when in the Moab area!

Kai had such a fun time with your family! Thanks for choosing us for this adventure - we are so glad you were able to reschedule after having to cancel last year. There are many more canyons in the area, so we hope to take you guys through more fun canyons in the future!
