Great Family Experience - Did the medieval chamber slot canyon tour with my family and had a great time. We did the 8am tour and it started with a short hike to the first rappel that went into a slot canyon. It was our first time doing this but after the first few seconds you get the hang of it! We walked out of the slot canyon and right to the next rappel area which is not accessible by hiking. We each rappelled between a cliff wall and the morning glory arch. The views were amazing. Then we hiked back out to the trailhead (make sure to bring plenty of water especially on a hot day). We booked this through Paddle Moab and our guide Nate was great, knowledgeable and friendly.

Excellent Rappelling Experience - This was such a great experience! Nate, our guide, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and friendly and made the experience enjoyable. The canyon views are incredible and the tour provides all the equipment and instruction you need. I highly recommend this tour and this company if you are visiting Moab!

Repelling Adventure - Beautiful views, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and of course adventure! The repelling was awesome and easy to do. The hike out is a couple of miles but nothing too intense. I would recommend this to anyone looking to repel! Nate Greenberg was our guide and he was phenomenal!

Wow what an excellent adventure! - I booked this for my husband and I. I am afraid of heights. So the morning of our trip we went to the office to discuss exactly what would happen. First and foremost anyone who has given any of these wonderful employees a bad rating really need to be honest about themselves. Everyone I encountered could not be more kind, genuine and professional. Again, safety is first with this company. The young lady checking us in answered all my questions and then asked if I wanted to talk to our guide. This was about an hour before our time to go. Nick, our guide, was nothing short of outstanding. He completely understood my concerns. He explained everything in simple terms and explained that he would have a second line attached to each person where he could control the decent if anything happened. He took the time to reassure me and make me super comfortable. He explained the hike in as well as the hike out. The hike in was very easy. The hikes between the first and second rappel was a little more challenging but not hard. The hikes between out was a little harder BUT Nick went at the pace my husband set. He is such a wonderful guide. He explained the history, the animals, the earth and plants. He talked about the entire history of the area. He made us feel like we were the best friends. He is so calm and reassuring. I would recommend good shoes to hike in and plenty of water. If you do not bring a backpack (which I recommend a small one to carry your water and helmet which you get sized for there) they have loaner ones. Make sure everything in your pockets are secure. Take water….it is a must. This adventure is for everyone who can manage to hike about three miles total over a rough floor trail and who wants an exciting adventure. It does not require skill but you must listen to what your guide says and follow directions, then it is so easy. I strongly recommend this company to anyone! They have such a kind loving spirit about them and we will be using them for a white water rafting trip. This is suitable for kids who are big enough and strong enough for the adventure. This is one of the best companies I have ever used on our many, many outdoor adventures around the country!

Awesome Experience - We did both the whitewater rafting trip and the rappelling experience on different days during our stay. Though there wasn't much to the rapids this time of year, our guide, Jayden, was highly educational and made the trip enjoyable. The canyoneering experience was the highlight of our entire trip. Nate was a fantastic guide. We had the place to ourselves and even saw quite a bit of wildlife on the hike back. It was an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend Paddle Moab while visiting.

Family fun - Nate was great! He was so patient with us and kept us very safe. The rappelling was amazing and the scenery was great! Bring a lot of water because the hike out is hot and long.
