Ron was our guide for this trip and it was phenomenal. 9 hours is a long time to spend in a car with someone, but it flew by with Ron. The conversation was interesting and the information he passed along throughout the day was awesome. It really ignited a passion in us for this area. This trip was so much fun! We were with another couple, not part of our party and we enjoyed each other just fine. The car ride was comfortable enough, including the expected bumps in the road, and the lunch they had prepared was great. We hit enough bathrooms along the way and had plenty of water and snacks. We saw so many amazing things and learned so much about the history and the geography. We would even do this again, and we just might do that in order to bring some of our grown kids along. I’m sure all the guides are great, but we really did enjoy our time with Ron!
