Good scenery, but does take some time in transit. Bring a camera and snacks. Very cool experience to enjoy

The tour was really nice,...

The tour was really nice, Ella, our guide was amazing! She explained everything to us along the way and has a lot of knowledge over the region, the Utah State, curiosities. The only thing to keep in mind that it’s a long drive, as most of the attractions in the state. It’s definitely worth it! Look out for Ella when you book the tour!

Great experience!

Our tour guide Logan was very knowledgeable of the area, and the van was cool and comfortable. We had a great experience even in 102 degree weather. I am very happy we did this tour, it was unlike anything we have ever seen. I highly recommend.

Well worth the experience

Excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable of the area. We learned about the seriousness of the Great Salt Lake drying up as well as the amount of mining that goes on in this area. The Bonneville Flats were well worth the trip. We really enjoyed our tour.
