The tour was good but I could have been advised better as I am a tourist. I did the Arches national park only to be told on my return that I should have taken another tour which supposedly was better. The driver insisted on clicking a picture of me as apparently he was instructed by his boss to do so. He mentioned that his boss had asked for 4-5 pics per tourist! Bizarre ! Also tour was super expensive $1500 for 1 day!!!

I was staying in Salt Lake City, and heard about Antelope Island. I signed up for this tour, and it was such a pleasure. They pick up at numerous hotels, and drive you right out to the Island. We saw bison, pronghorn and coyote.

Amazing Canyons. Great trip and our guide was very knowledgeable. A lot was squeezed into this trip which on one day lead to a large amount of time in the van but it was worth it. Most of the time the communication was great but on the first day we got a phone call to ask where we were because they were waiting for us at our hotel, we had been told a different pick up time. At the end of the trip we were told there would be hotel drop off, there was only hotel drop off for 2 hotels so you had to find your own way from there. This wasn’t a problem but would have been good to know when we book the trip, then we may have booked to stay at one of those hotels.

My father and I really enjoyed this tour. We booked late - on the morning of the tour itself and we were the only ones on it. I was surprised they ran it and I’d imagine many other companies would have cancelled. So that reflects well on Southwest Adventure Tours. We saw some beautiful scenery and lots of animals - bison, coyotes, owls. So we really enjoyed the whole experience. A few words on our guide Mark: his enthusiasm was infectious. He is extremely well-suited to this sort of work and obviously enjoys his job! He certainly added to the experience.

My husband and I had an awesome time on our recent 8 day Mighty Five Utah park trip this November! Our tour guide Cody was outstanding and well versed on each park and its natural beauty. I enjoyed taking pictures with some tips from Cody's photography background. Most of all, he ensured that our small group enjoyed what each park had to offer according to varying capabilities of the group. The restaurants were very unique and in Cody's words "only got better". The "pie stop" was outstanding! We also enjoyed the accomodations. I must say that even the visitor centers were educational as he would quiz us before hand on the landscape origins. We would highly recommend this national park adventure this time of year! Thank you, Cody!

We participated in The Northern Lights Alaska trip. We were really impressed by our tour director, Shybree! She was an absolutely amazing communicator, and she made sure we were able to see and take pictures of the Aurora Borealis on 3 separate nights. In addition, we experienced museums, Reindeer (up close and personal), dog sledding, an Ice Palace, hot springs, ice fishing, and a Santa House in the town of North Pole (with a real Santa Clause - he legally changed his name). Also, this was a small group tour, and we all enjoyed being together on this trip. We have a lot of memories and photos that we will cherish forever. Seeing the Northern Lights has been a dream of mine for many, many years, and I was more than grateful for this experience!!!

The van that was allocated to this trip was not what anyone expected. It was more of a "day trip" van and not one to travel in for a 5-day trip. There was no leg room; no room to place any carry bags; no cup holders. It was VERY tight getting to your seat. What made it more apparent we had the least of the least vans was seeing two other groups, from your company, in vans that were what we had all expected to be in. Why were we charged the same amount as others, tripped was booked in February, and then given a very uncomfortable ride? Personally, I would love to take another trip with your company, BUT with the price paid for a "day use" van I'm not confident in the transportation options.

Amazing experience. Our guide Sansuri was awesome. The tour is well designed for a half day venture. Breathtaking Views, nice little hike up to Buffalo point and clear views of wildlife.

Highly recommended! Experienced guide, the great salt lake, bisons, pronghorn, old ranch, beach, a short hike, you get everything!

Our five-day Utah National Parks adventure was extraordinary in an unforgettable Might Five Utah-Las Vegas adventure through Utah's National Parks. Eleven of us, traveling comfortably in a Mercedes minivan, embarking on a five-day odyssey through Utah's Five majestic National Parks. October's crisp air painted the canyons in hues of amber and russet as we explored Zion's towering cliffs, Arches' otherworldly formations, the hidden orchards of Capitol Reef, Canyonland National Park, Goblin Valley State Park, and Bryce Canyon's ethereal Hoodoos. Our group, a wonderfully friendly bunch, bonded over breathtaking hikes and stunning vistas. Lee, our exceptional guide, whose intimate knowledge of the region stemmed from a childhood spent exploring its wonders, went above and beyond to ensure a seamless and joyful experience. While the unexpected snow on day two added a touch of adventure, the remaining days were filled with crisp sunshine, stunning scenery, and memories we'll cherish forever. This trip, a testament to the power of shared experiences and the beauty of the natural world, exceeded all expectations.

Sonsari was an amazing tour guide. I learned alot about the area, history and saw some gorgeous scenery and animals. Highly recommend this tour.

This trip to Utah's Mighty 5 National Parks (as well as Goblin Valley State Park) exceeded all of our expectations. We were able to experience highlights of each park within a compressed time frame. Hikes, both challenging and easy, focused on the best each park had to offer. Photo stops were frequent. The hotel choices were good, however the "new" hotel in Springdale was very far from town so we couldn't explore it. Group meals were at well-chosen restaurants. Last but certainly not least, our guide, Wynn Hall, was tremendous. His local knowledge was outstanding and his gregarious nature facilitated in making the travellers a close-knit group. Wynn made sure we were well taken care of in every way. I highly recommend using Southwest Adventure Tours.

Best decision we could have made choosing SWA tours! Our guide, Aaron, was friendly, accomodating, and made sure everyone was included. It exceeded our expectations. Had we tried to drive ourselves we would never have experienced such a great trip.

Amazing place … superb drive and our tour Guide was the most amazing … Dima knows so much about the history and played so many videos about each story he told us… this is what absolutely amazing looks like ! 3 cheers for Dima! He is an amazing photographer!!!

Amazing day, tour guide was awesome, knowledgeable with a sense of humor. Tremendous sights, views, exceeded our expectations. Recommend highly.
