On May 5, two of my close friends and I had the very good fortune of having Becca as our full day guide for a trip to narrows in Zion Park. She was engaging and very knowledgeable and a pleasure to interact with for the day. We were very fortunate to have been paired up with her, and give her the highest possible scores and recommendations for her services. If you are fortunate enough to have her for this experience or any other one, you will be very lucky Indeed. Maximum possible rating!
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We're grateful Beca could guide you through the Narrows and that she made such a positive impact on your group. Your kind words mean a lot to us and to her. We hope to see you again soon!
Once in a lifetime experience. Kevin helped us navigate thru it all. One more adventure crossed out from our bucket list.
Thank you so much! We're honored to have helped you check this adventure off your bucket list. We're so glad Kevin could be part of making it happen.
Becca was the perfect guide for our family of four with a 12 and 14yo. Pushed us just enough to maximize our experience in the narrows so that we could confidently and safely reach the bend! Expertise and support made the whole day enjoyable even with the physical challenge. We would recommend to anyone looking to do the narrows for the first time.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review! It's so great to hear that Beca facilitated such a fun day for you and your kids. We're so happy that she helped you safely and confidently navigate The Narrows! We hope to see you again soon.
We were super disappointed initially that our hike through the Narrows was cancelled due to flash flooding risk, but our guide Justin swooped in and saved the day! He took us in as far as we could go and brought us out well before the rains began. It was amazing! Justin pivoted as needed with weather implications and took us on alternate hikes that were most likely just as wonderful as the original plan. He made sure of that! I’d recommend you ask for him if you book, he’ll make sure you see and do things that make memories of a lifetime.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad Justin was able to adapt to the weather and ensure you still had an amazing adventure. His dedication to providing memorable experiences is truly appreciated. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. We hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable guided tours in the future!

It’s all about having the right guide. Justin was so in tune with us and how we were doing. He guided us back and Forth across the river flawlessly. It was a fantastic experience. And then a hike after lunch to give us more Zion experience was very worth while. If you can get Justin as a guide I highly recommend it!
