Fun despite rain! - It was basically a private tour as we were the only ones. Travis was knowledgeable and very personable. He made it fun and engaging despite it being rainy most of the time. He helped us get some good pictures too. Cary was also very nice. Despite the dreary weather, both made our tour fun and unforgettable. Highly recommend!

A Day Trip for the Books! - Do yourself a favor: When you book a tour through Southwest Adventure Tours, ask for Luciana, specifically. My husband and I booked the Bonneville Salt Flats tour and we spent an entire morning with Lú and I am so happy we did. She is such an absolute radiant of light to be around and so incredibly knowledgeable. I learned so much about Utah. It was my first time visiting and I will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

Great day! - Tour guide super knowledgeable about the area! My sister and I felt safe and our group was great. We didn't have a rental car so this was the next best option.

This tour is well worth the time and money - Blake was a fantastic tour guide!! He was a great conversationalist and safe driver. We learned so much about the sites we saw and about Utah in general. My sister and I were both really glad we did this tour.

Solo Travelers Excluded by Restrictive Booking Policy - I was genuinely excited to book this tour during my stay in Salt Lake City, but I was unable to because it requires a minimum of two people. As a solo traveler, this was extremely disappointing and frustrating. This policy feels unnecessarily restrictive and excludes a large number of travelers who are visiting on their own. I was fully willing to pay for the experience, yet I was still unable to book simply because I was one person. That does not make sense from a customer perspective. Salt Lake City attracts many solo travelers, especially for conferences and short trips, and this requirement makes it difficult for us to access experiences like this. Offering a solo booking option, even at a higher price, would make this tour far more inclusive and accessible. It is unfortunate to miss out on what looks like a great experience due to such a limiting booking policy.
