This hike exceeded our expectations!! We expected (and saw) beautiful scenery including the absolutely beautiful canyon and falls, geothermal features, and meadows. But in addition to the views, our guide, Emily, was so much fun! She clearly loves her job and her enthusiasm was contagious. She had fascinating stories to share and told them in her own unique, hilarious way. This is a great hike for someone wanting to see more than just the paved paths but not comfortable doing so without a guide. I highly recommend this tour!
