Fantastic experience—great guide! - A fantastic experience for first-time canyoneers! Jared at Sundial Guiding was an awesome guide. He offered great tips that empowered our tweens to take on exciting drops and climbs. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and are grateful for this opportunity. Don’t hesitate—book it!

Wonderful adventure near Page for active people wanting a unique slot canyon experience - Our adventure with guide Jared was outstanding. He met us at a designated point off the highway and near the slot canyon site. We were a group of two couples (all in our 60s) who had each rappelled one time before. Jared made sure we we safely equipped, understood how the gear worked, and what to expect. He was thorough but not overbearing in his presentation. This adventure hike included 4 rappels that increased in length from 15’ to near 100’ (or it seemed like it). Your journey includes scrambles over rocks in the slot canyon. Our day included huge puddles of mud and quicksand in on the trek, with some thought out leaps of faith to avoid a mud bath. With the weather being drizzly, we got a bit of mud on us - it added to the adventure. Once done in the slot canyon, you hike out to what would be the edge of the high water level of Lake Powell. From that point Jarad had us scramble up a large, smooth and rounded 120+ foot rock face where we posed for a group photo. You then hike back across the desert along paths that lead you back to the starting point about 2.5 hours from the start. If you want an excellent time, give this non-advaced, yet physically exerting adventure a go. You are safe being guided by Jared and will feel very enriched by your time spent with him.

Amazing morning in Escalante - We had a great time canyoneering with Jared. The views were amazing and we learned so much about the area’s geology and history. We were lucky to go during rainy season so that there was some water at the bottom of the rappels, making the experience extra exciting. We appreciated the flexibility to move our tour up a few hours and avoid the afternoon thunderstorms.

Best guides ever - Canyoneering with Mike is amazing, he’s charming, funny and very knowledgeable, sharing his expertise on rappelling skills and facts and history about the area. 10/10 would recommend!! I’ll be back to adventure with Mike and Sundial Guides again!

Canyoneering with Mike - We came to Page to visit Lake Powell/Antelope Canyon but ended up finding Sundial and signing up for a half day of technical canyoneering, which was way cooler than I could’ve imagined and arguably the BEST part of our Utah trip!! Mike was our guide and he was incredible. My friends and I are all pretty scared of heights but he made us feel so comfortable and safe. The canyon itself was stunning and we had it all to ourselves, unlike the crowds at Antelope, which we had visited the day before. If you’re in the area this is a MUST DO and ask for Mike!!
