We visited areas we would have been unable to access ourselves and saw the most amazing scenery. Our guide Mark Trunzo was so knowledgeable about the area and was obviously passionate about the parks and how they should be looked after, he was also good fun. We had a great day.

Did you know that Canyonlands NP is 5x larger than Arches NP? To see them both on your own will take more than two days and will require you to (a) deal with a timed entry system, (b) LOTS of people, and (c) issues with parking at pull outs. UNLESS you book a tour with Adrift Adventures!! This company offers a multitude of tours ranging from 1/2 day to full day, one park or two, and even multi-day white water rafting excusions. Whatever you want to see and do, Adrift can help you with. I chose the FULL DAY, TWO PARK package. I was in a Jeep with three other travelers, and together, we explored parts of both parks few will ever see. This was a backroads tour, and it was absolutely phenominal!! There were frequent stops for restrooms (if needed) and photo opportunities. MARK was our guide, and his incredible wealth of knowledge and experience made for a fun, engaging, informative and interactive tour. We started off in Arches NP, and toured there for almost four hours before breaking for lunch. Snacks and cold water are also provided. After lunch, we entered the back of Canyonlands NP. We saw very few people, so we were able to take photographs unimpeded without people urging us to hurry. THIS is the way to see these parks, especially in the summer heat. There was very little walking, so people of all ages and abilities can participate. I cannot say enough about this company and the quality of service they provide. 10 out of 10!!
