Emily is an amazing guide. She and her husband own the company and have been guiding for along time. She is enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable. She never stopping talking, educating, and telling great stories. We got a late start because the whole group had a hard time finding the meeting place . My only criticism is that they need to give much better directions to the meeting place since none of us had and internet or phone service in the park. Driving early in the morning to the meeting place is incredible itself since there’s so much wildlife on the way. We didn’t see a lot of animals on the hike, but Emily takes u back in time and it becomes quite obvious why conservation is so important. Even my teenager , who I couldn’t convince to be eco conscious, had to agree at the end of the day, he understands the importance. Also a really nice lunch. I recommend the hike and this company . We took another hike with another company which was disappointing and totally overpriced. Highly recommend YHGuides!
