Amazing experience with John at Zion🙏🏼 - My husband and I had an incredible experience with John as our tour guide in Zion National Park. John was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, making our tour both informative and enjoyable. His passion for the park and its natural beauty truly enhanced our visit. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable time, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide. We highly recommend John to anyone looking for an exceptional tour in Zion Park. Thank you, John, for making our trip unforgettable!

Great Solo Experience - I had a great time on this tour. John is an extremely knowledgeable guide. He not only knew a lot about the area but also was safe. He organized the day in a way that allowed me to get the most out of it. We hiked up to Scouts landing and also went quite a ways up the narrows. Both experiences were great. I really can’t say enough about the experience. Would definitely work with him again in the future!

John, the Best Tour Guide Ever - We could not have asked for a better tour guide, John was very knowledgeable and kept us informed. He was very patient with all of us and lead us through the narrows as far as we wanted to go. He also provided all kinds of snacks that included chips, Gatorade, and slim Jim’s. His van was also very clean and organized. John had a good personality and seemed to have a people personality which I think is critical for being a good tour guide. He also seem to know the park very well and took us to all the hidden spots. Because of the heat he worked with us to modify the trip as needed. Of all the tours we took he was the best tour guide we have had.

100% go to for a jam packed Zion adventure - Full day of our choice adventures. The group was small and capable. Our guide, John provided us with the information, timeliness, and rest to get as much out of the day as we could. We had time for pictures at different points of the journey as well as some intensity. History and snacks added that little extra awesome. Our guide was thoughtful to my allergies and all of our requests. I would absolutely book again!

Amazing! - This had been the best tour and guide I have ever experience. John’s dedication and passion for his works is reflected on the way he cares for his costumers. It honestly felt like I was traveling with a friend. I extremely appreciated and loved the way he pushed me (first time hiker) in such a caring and safe way.

Awe-inspiring day of hiking with John-/guide extraordinaire! - The full-day Zion hike was awe-inspiring! John was an outstanding guide--flexible, supportive, engaging, and knowledgeable! We started early to avoid the heat and hiked the four miles up to Scout Lookout! The whole hike up was picture worthy! Next we spent a couple hours enjoying a refreshing slog through the cool waters of the Narrows which was unlike anything we'd ever experienced! It was the perfect day of hiking for my son and I. We'll never forget it!

Beautiful tour terrible guide. - We did a hiking tour in Zion with our guide Adam. He was on time and very polite, the issues came with his knowledge of the park and geology. While Adam was very confident in his facts, they were just wrong. He has a fundamental knowledge of the area, but asked scientific questions he would just fabricate complicated answers that sounded correct but were wrong. I would hope that for the amount we paid to go on this hike our guide would have a better understanding of the geography of the area. And most egregious was when would take breaks he would "sneak" off and come stoned. I would not recommend using this company.
