Private Moab Petroglyph Tour

We did the Private Moab Petroglyph Tour with Danny Bull as our guide. What a fun, informative tour it was! Danny enlightened us with story after story not only of the ancient petroglyphs, but plant life and how the Native American Indians survived. We would recommend this two hour tour to anyone who wants a close up tour of ancient lives and lifestyles.

Touring outside the national parks in Moab.

Our guide, Danny, was knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive. The scenery was amazing as was what we learned. The tour opened a new vista for us we would not have otherwise seen. Great for families too. We enjoyed learning more about the native American history in this area.

LEARN about the glyphs, rather than just seeing.

Sean Paul was fantastic. His knowledge of the glyphs and local flora/fauna was very informative. We highly recommend a tour with Sean. You can go see glyphs on your own - Sean will TEACH you about what you’re viewing.

Interesting tour

My Guide Mike was very interesting and enthusiastic to explain and I really enjoyed it. The dirt road in the valley was quite thrilling, but I think this experience of Moab is a good memory. Recommendation.
