- Zion National Park, UT - The Narrows is an iconic hike in Zion National Park. We will be hiking from the Temple of Sinawava along the riverside walk, then into the Virgin River for approximately 2 miles upstream. The towering cliffs, handing gardens, and springs provide excellent photo opportunities. We will hike as far as the Orderville Canyon, before returning along the same route to the Temple of Sinawava. Though there is not much elevation gain on this hike, it is challenging to forge upstream while navigating large submerged river stones. We will enjoy a charcuterie board picnic on the beautiful grassy lawn of the Zion Lodge.

A Bucket List Day! - It has been on my bucket list to go through the Narrows, so for my 58th bday, my husband and I booked a private hike with Michael. There are not enough positive adjectives in the dictionary to describe what an incredible adventure this was! It far exceeded our expectations, thanks to Michael, who did a great job communicating with us prior, and was prompt and ready the day of our hike, to meet us with the proper sized gear. Michael is so knowledgeable about the area, incredibly patient, attentive to safety, and overall an excellent guide. He also happens to be just one of those amazing humans and we truly enjoyed his company. 1000% recommend!

Fantastic experience because of a top notch guide! - Michael was a fantastic guide and made the whole experience really special. Every little detail was thought of. The kit was top quality and totally waterproof - the waders had fully attached neoprene feet (unlike much of the stuff you get from the local Narrows rental stores) meaning we were completely dry and warm through the whole hike, and we were provided with two proper trekking poles per person rather than the one wooden pole provided as part of the rental kit, which with the current and the rocks was a game changer. The early start meant we had the place to ourselves for the first half of the morning, and Michael's knowledge of and passion for the Narrows (and the whole park) was infectious and made the experience even more memorable, allowing us to feel more safe and go further than we would have done on our own. And all topped off by cups of hot tea and a lovely picnic lunch! We'd highly recommend Michael to anyone considering doing the Narrows - it was worth every penny!

Once in a lifetime experience. - We had the most amazing experience with Michael as he expertly guided us through the Narrows! His knowledge, expertise and ability to anticipate our needs made the whole experience memorable! We saw so many people attempt the Narrows without the proper equipment and ultimately turn back. Because of Michael, we had everything we needed for equipment and his knowledge as he expertly guided us through the best routes to navigate the currents. Highly recommend!

Awesome hiking through water - Awesome trip and excellent guide. Cheese platter was a good reward when we got to the mid point. Moises was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Waders and waterproof boots were a must and kept us warm.

A trip highlight! - Moises is an exceptional guide. He is not only knowledgeable but personable and really fun to spend the day with. He paced the tour to our interests and abilities and made the day one of the highlights of a 2 week trip. We would recommend him to anyone!

Narrows is a Must if you Can - Such an epic experience. DJ our guide was lovely and knowledgeable, the equipment provided was top notch, and we had an outstanding lunch sitting by the river. Go early, but go with this guide, you will not regret it.

OUTSTANDING! - We had no idea what to expect, but Moises and Michael made our experience exceptional and we made great new friends.
We started with the Narrows where Moises made sure we stayed safe, shared a wonderful charcuterie lunch with us at the grotto and provided all the equipment we needed to stay dry.
The next day, both Michael and Moises guided us to the Emerald pools and then took us on a sunset hike after sharing lunch at a beautiful spot at Zion.
Two days later, we met Moises at Bryce Canyon National Park and he guided us from Sunrise to Sunset point sharing so much information about the park, plants, and archaeology. We met Michael after the hike and we all shared lunch together. It was a magical experience.
We highly recommend making a private hike with Cedar and Sage part of your vacation budget You definitely won’t be disappointed!

The Narrows from a seniors point of view - It was our special grandparent trip with our 16 yo granddaughter. She’s always wanted to visit Zion. I asked the question to our guide, on a scale 1-10 how important are the waders? He should have insisted. What did we know. He didn’t have dozens of guides under his belt. We all learned lessons. The water is COLD. Our granddaughter pushed through. Our guide captured beautiful memories that will last us a lifetime. It was lessons of resilience courage and inner strength. We didn’t go to the end. The 2.5 miles in the narrows were breathtaking. The current was strong in places. The trekking poles are a must. I recommend two. Many people had just one, some had none (brave, balanced or stupid). Walking on rocks in swift current takes balance and stamina. Take your time to look up and experience the beauty of nature. Take the pictures. Get video. Wear the waders!! Push through your fears and pain. Slow down. Enjoy life!
