    With a perfect rating backed by nearly 2,000 reviews, this outfitter delivers consistently exceptional adventures across southern Utah's dramatic landscape. They offer UTV tours to slot canyons like Peek-a-Boo and the Great Chamber, guided hikes to The Wave and Coyote Buttes, and thrilling off-road expeditions to White Pocket and Hog Canyon. The terrain varies from sandy dunes to rugged desert trails, and multiple reviewers emphasize that these aren't tame, hand-holding tours. Even experienced off-roaders from other parts of the country praise the pace and excitement level, noting you actually get to push the vehicles and have a genuine adventure. The guides earn glowing praise throughout, with Trevor, Shelly, Kirk, and Nick mentioned repeatedly for their knowledge, photography skills, and ability to match the experience to each group's comfort level. Shelly particularly stands out for going above and beyond, helping coordinate backup plans and even entering lottery permits on behalf of guests. The personal touch extends across the team. Families appreciate how guides keep everyone safe while maintaining the thrill factor, and the flexibility to bring small dogs along is a bonus. If you're looking for breathtaking scenery combined with real adrenaline and guides who genuinely care about creating memorable experiences, this operation delivers.

    Shelly is the best guide. I went on the Peek a Boo and Great Chamber self drive, with my sister and it exceeded all expectations. We had the sites almost to ourselves, and Shelly helped with amazing photos. The slot canyon is surprisingly long, and the vehicle is such a thrill. I can't wait to go back and take another tour. Thanks so much!
