Great tour! - We just completed the 3 hour driving tour of Salt Lake City with Jake. He was amazing! There were only 2 of us on the tour so he was able to adjust the time at each stop a little to accommodate our interests. Jake was a walking encyclopedia of all things in Salt Lake City. He provided the history and interesting facts about everything we saw, including the different materials (rocks) that were used in building many of the buildings in town. Jake not only knew a lot about Salt Lake City, but we also learned a lot about Utah in general.

Punctuality and good information about the city and its inhabitants - The tour started at the appointed time and also ended on time. Blake's explanations, the guide, were interesting, without being too extensive (as sometimes happens in this kind of tour). The treatment with travelers excellent, patient and without rush (some travelers had mobility problems). We visited the most significant places in Salt Lake City, and Blake kept us informed at every stop, letting us take whatever photos we wanted, quietly, each at his own pace. He also offered to take pictures of us. In short, an excursion highly recommended if you do not have much time to visit the city.

Salt Lake City Highlights - Our tour with Rachel was outstanding! She was personable, knowledgeable, and considerate of the needs of all tour participants. She also shared many recommendations for time on our own: restaurants, shopping, and scenic drives. The van was very comfortable and perfect for seeing all the important sights. Our morning could not have been better! Highly recommend Southwest Adventure Tours!

The Perfect 3 Hour City Tour! - I had a first class, one-on-one tour experience with John, who shared so many fascinating things about Salt Lake City! Most places cancel if they only have one person but not this business! You absolutely couldn’t beat the price either! I travel a lot and I can say this tour had the absolute most bang for the buck!
