Fun for the Entire Family! - Our tour guide, Lisa Elliot, was so very nice and extremely knowledgeable about local and state history. I had my 3 young grandkids with me and she made the voyage fun for everyone by adding personal interaction stops and showing them crystals and letting them feed fish at the hatchery. You could tell she loves everything about Payson and the surrounding areas. Truly one of highlights of our vacation!!!!

Beautiful, Amazing and Fantastic - This was so Fun! Lisa the Guide was Fantastic. My Husband and I took our Son and Daughter in Law on 5/13/2023. What a great experience. The tour itself is just incredible. My husband is a Native of AZ and I was raised in AZ from 15 months old. We have been exploring the Rim Country for years and what a surprise to learn so much on this tour. I can not say enough about how fun, interesting and beautiful this trip is. Put the views, information and the guide together and its Perfect. We have already planned on bringing the Grandkid up to go to Diamond Point and dig crystals. Thank You Lisa and Creekside Jeep tours for a great time. See you again for Sure

A Very Special Experience - We had an exceptional experience on this tour. The guides obviously love the area and have extensive local knowledge. The area is beautiful and varies from forested valleys to vast mountainous scenery. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience which will remain a treasure of our visit to Payson.

Great time on the Rim - [3:00 PM] James Haviland
Our jeep tour guide Lisa was knowledgeable. We took the Zane Grey tour and saw a group of elk! Will definitely be sending more folks your way.
