Great experience! - Ann was an amazing guide! She knew the ins and outs of the park and made the experience very enjoyable. I chose this trip since I was visiting salt lake by myself and did not want to bother with a rental car. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for an experience that gets you out and about!

Amazing views, great way to spend the day when visiting SLC - This was an excellent way to spend an extra day I had in SLC after a work conference. Our tour guide, Michelle, was super knowledgeable, answered all of our questions, gave lots of interesting context around the history of the broader area and specifically Antelope Island. We saw lots of bison, "wallowing" and play fighting, which was really wonderful to see from a safe distance!! Also the mountains and Great Salt Lake were breathtaking. If this tour is within your budget, I totally recommend it. Logistically, I appreciate being picked up from the hotel! FYI it's a good idea to bring some snacks since you start around 8a and finish around 1p.

Antelope Island - We had never been to the Salt Lake City area and signed up for this tour. Our tour guide, Michelle, was friendly, fun and professional. She showed us Antelope Island, an old ranch and also gave us some practical tips about SLC along the road. She even helped with taking pictures, which was greatly appreciated. The scenery was beautiful and calm. We highly recommend this tour!
