Great family fun in Zion! - My husband, daughter and I had the absolute pleasure of spending the morning with Michael in Zion. He made sure we were there early to beat the crowds and we really were the only people on the first portion of the trail which was so appreciated. He tailored our experience to our skill level and desires for our time in Zion - even halfway giving us options on how to proceed which gave us some time to gauge how we were doing and how much more we wanted to do. He took the time to point out areas of interest, teach us about the native flora and fauna and take great pictures of our family which we will treasure for years to come. He kept my 11 year old engaged and asked her great questions and made her feel like an integral part of the experience. We ended our time with Michael with a lovely curated picnic that really hit the spot after a morning of hiking. I will for sure tell anyone I know visiting Zion to book a tour with Cedar and Sage. Thank you Michael for letting us end our vacation on such a high note!

He has an extensive knowledge of the park and its wildlife. He is a very friendly and patient guide and hosted a delicious lunch for us afterwards. Highly recommend!

Unforgettable Private Tour of Zion with Michael! - We had an amazing experience exploring Zion National Park with our guide, Michael. He’s a true expert on all things Zion—knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the park. We started bright and early around 7 AM and completed two beautiful hikes: Angels Landing (up to the last mile that requires a permit) and the lower level of the Emerald Pools. Michael was joined by DJ, who was training on the route, and both of them made the experience incredibly enjoyable. Michael shared fascinating details about Zion’s history and geography throughout the tour and captured tons of great family photos for us. He kept things fun and engaging, especially for our 11-year-old daughter, answering all her curious questions with patience and enthusiasm. To top it off, we ended the tour with a delicious charcuterie lunch that Michael prepared himself. Having him as our private guide not only saved us time but gave us a much deeper appreciation for the park. He even offered great tips on where to rent gear for The Narrows and where to eat locally. We highly recommend Michael and his company, Cedar and Sage, for anyone looking to get the most out of their visit to Zion!

Phenomenal 1/2 day hike! - What a rewarding day! Our guide was patient with my constant need to stop and take a million pictures and to catch my breath when needed. We were given options based on our wants and physical needs. Our guide knew the area and geology well. We took a 6 mile bike and ended with a fantastic meat, cheese and nut lunch. Couldn't have asked for more!

Magical! - This was our 2nd hike with Michael @ Cedar & Sage, and I was wondering if he could top our previous experience, but he did!! We had an extraordinary experience hiking through Bryce Canyon with him as our guide, and because it had snowed alittle around 5am that morning, Michael expertly assessed the various trail options before we arrived and had navigated a route for us that was fit for our abilities, and was safe considering the early morning snow and potential for ice, and he had the proper equipment ready for us that morning. It was a magical experience, especially because of the early morning snow, and Michael expertly took us through a hybrid of 3 combined trails to give us the safest route and most breathtaking views! Michael is a fantastic guide, top notch, but he he is also an incredible steward of the land and it is evident in conversation with him how knowledgeable he is and how much he truly loves this beautiful place.

Fabulous Day Hiking the Narrows in Zion National Park - There were 4 of us that spent a fantastic, magical day with Michael on a private trekking tour of the Narrows in Zion National Park. Michael is a fantastic guide and having grown up in the area he's super knowledgable of every detail of the park, flora, fauna and interesting tidbits. Michael packed a lovely charcuterie board lunch, had yummy snacks and bottled water and really made the day special by providing all the gear one would need to hike the Narrows. He supplied waders, special boots and sturdy walking sticks. I highly recommend Michael's tour and will tell anyone who wants to experience the Narrows with a professional, personable and wonderful guide to choose Michael with Cedar & Sage!
