Great overview of SLC - We really enjoyed the city sights bus tours. The guide was very knowledgeable and it was evident how much she enjoyed her job! The only suggestion i would make is to be able to spend more time at Pioneer Village and Temple Square. We thoroughly enjoyed the organ recital but there wasn’t enough time left to tour the grounds.

Worth a Jaunt to the Lake! - Tour guide was very friendly, a good driver, and knowledgeable. The bus was very clean and the AC worked well! We had plenty of time at the Lake too to explore and take photos.

A Perfect Tour - Kevin was a great tour guide. He had a wealth of information to share with the group. We enjoyed learning about the history of Salt Lake City and the beginnings of the LDS. We are hard of hearing and he was very easy to understand.

Quite the adventure! - Definitely not kid friendly on sand storm days which is what happened. Mother Nature decided to have a storm, causing sand to go all over my baby’s face. A little scare! But otherwise the adventure was incredible. The host was absolutely welcoming and even safe guarded my baby and items as I rushed her to shelter out the storm. Now the views and education was mind blowing. Seeing the wonders of Salt Lake City was insightful and nothing short of spectacular. Thank you

Floating mom and son. - It was very cool to be able to float in the lake without effort. My son and I kept getting up and then sitting down to float again and again. Our guide was helpful and informative. I even liked the treat of salt water taffy that she gave us. It was so good… had to buy some.
