    This tour was one of our top four trips (others were Galapagos, China and safari in Africa). Magnificent scenery, great hikes, good food and some funky places and our super-dupper tour guide. So glad we did this longer trip. We were cared for, educated, amazed and happy!!!! And we saw so much more than many of our friends had going on their own. It is good to be with a specialist and local.

    Recently my husband and I took 2 of AAA's Small Group Tours. Once we arrived at our vacation start hotel, Southwest Adventure Tours took over both trips. Our Sept tour, Utah's Mighty 5 was lead by 'Captain' Adam. Robin L was our driver/guide for October's 'Arizona Adventure". Both vacations surpassed our expectations. Accommodations were comfortable, clean, and in good locations. Tour stops lived up to their initial advertisements and we enjoyed plenty of time at each one. As enjoyable as all the above was, what really enhanced these tours, was the Southwest personnel. Adam & Robin were professional, courteous, and really fun to be with as they shared their enthusiasm for the tours. They repeatedly went out of their way to insure each of us enjoyed every aspect of our journey, and were helpful when any of us 'seniors' experienced limitations during a hike or other outing. We definitely feel these 2 trips were well worth what we paid. Kudos to Southwest Adv. both for the vacation itineraries, and especially for employing Adam & Robin. These gentlemen are exceptional drivers & guides, and have set the bar impossibly high for any guides we may meet in the future.

    Rockies To The Red Rocks Rocky Mountaineer By BruceL92421 During September, 2021 we had the pleasure of taking the two-day Rocky Mountaineer “Rockies To The Red Rocks” Journey covering 194 miles from Denver to Moab, UT followed by four days of guided touring through Canyonlands, Moab and Bryce Canyon, ending in Las Vegas. The train crew were informative and provided exceptional service, while the views and experience were unforgettable. Our tour guide, Vicky Stafford, is an excellent communicator and was phenomenal in her attention to every detail. Our driver, Nick was professional in every way and together, Vicky and Nick make an outstanding team. If you have the opportunity, this adventure is highly recommended.

    This was one of the most wonderful trips we have taken. Everyday got better. Our guide, Adam, made this trip for us. On the first day we were approaching Canyonlands and the weather looked like rain. Fortunately for us, our guide was able to watch the clouds and every stop we made the sun arrived and left shortly after we departed for another site. With the exception of the Marriott Springhill is Salt Lake City, the accommodation we quite nice and comfortable. The Salt Lake location was too far from most restaurants and we needed to Uber or Lyft to dinner while there. Our group was 11 individuals plus our guide, which was exactly what we expected. The van was comfortable and our guide provided great commentary about the sites we were seeing. We would highly recommend Southwest Adventures for this tour which included a number of hikes that we from easy to moderate.

    We started in Salt Lake City and over 6 days went to the 5 National Parks in Utah. Adam and Ja, tour guides were great! We were split into small groups (10-12pp) and hiked with that group during the duration of the trip.

    We had 3 couples taking a train trip through the American Rockies with Rocky Mountaineer. We had done a similiar trip a few years baqck in canada with the same company. After 2 full days of train travel we ended up in Moab, UT. From there we were placed in the care of our excellent driver Nick and our outstanding tour guide Vicki. They work for Southwest Adventure Tours. We spent the next 4 days exploring Arches, Canyonland, Brice and Zion Parks. Nick was a great driver and always made sure we didn't miss any sights. Vicke was an incredible guide. During the course of our tour we received an education on the history and geology of the area we were exploring. Also she made sure she gave us plenty of time for sightseeing on our own. Vicki actually got the cell phone numbers of the entire group so she could text us if anything changed. Her and Nick delivered our bags to our room when a miscommunication with the hotel resulted in on workers to unload luggage. They were a great team and made the trip one where our expectations were greatly exceeded! Again I highly recommend this trip and hope you get Nick and Vicki if you go!

    A phenomenal trip not to be missed. Every day a new adventure. My personal favorite day was Bryce Canyon. Our tour guide, Ja, was amazing. She is a true professional. Each day was expertly planned, but always left room to tailor our experience to the group. A rainy day altered our scheduled tour, but she gave us options and the day was still a great experience. The best review I could Ja is that we will be fortunate if our paths cross again in the next tour that we will definitely schedule in the future.
