Highlights
  • Vermilion Cliffs - Hiking to the Teepee formation is a great spring, fall and winter location. Summer can be toasty if you don’t head out early in the morning. This hike can take anywhere from 1-2 hours each way depending on individual abilities and trail conditions. There are two sets of teepee rocks that are quite tall and photogenic for all levels. The hike is primarily through sand and this can be tough for some but those who choose this tour will be amazed with this formation. Rarely does anyone get out to the teepees and we should have the place to ourselves just about anytime of the year. The teepees are divided between the north and south teepees and it takes about 15 minutes to walk between the two.
    Tour time for this hike is 6-7 hours.

Another great tour with Dreamland Safari - Todays Dreamland Safari tour to the Teepees was amazing despite the temporary weather conditions we experienced. Maddi was our tour guide who delivered us safely to and from our hiking destination. Maddi was very pleasant, professional and knowledgeable about the rock formations we were viewing which made the tour much more interesting and exciting. She was very attentive, checking on the group routinely and making sure we were well hydrated during our hike. I had a great time and would definitely recommend Dreamland Safari. This is my second year and fourth tour with them. The tour guides are very experienced and knowledgeable. I'm never disappointed.

Natures teepees - We really enjoyed the day with our guide Bruce. He was certainly knowledgeable and helped us stay on course. Very accommodating and caring. Although my husband had no issues with the hike I found hiking in 1.6 miles one way through sand a little strenuous and struggled a bit due to my health condition. Once we arrived at the teepees, like most of the natural features here we were dumbfounded by the beauty. Great tour.

Great natural beauty - We enjoyed our time in the South Coyote Buttes of Vermillion Cliffs. It was an extraordinary day. We traveled after a snow fall on the previous day--and the snow on the cliffs made the sandstone (if such a thing is possible) even more spectacular. Our leader, Bruce, is very skilled. He knows the Buttes like the back of his hand, and led us with assurance and confidence on a journey of exploration, with one amazing sight after another. He was very caring, and made sure our pathway (a bit more slippery than usual) was safe. You will be in good hands with Bruce, because he is an experienced rescue volunteer--though he has never had to rescue one of his clients. He is also an amazing competent backroads high clearance vehicle driver--braving deep puddles, mud and slush with complete confidence. This review would be 5 stars if it were not for one issue. Please be aware that from Fredonia (where we met Bruce) to the trail head, was a solid 3 hours of driving on back roads. We drove 1 1/2 hours to meet Bruce. So we ended up spending 9 hours in transit. There is no question that many readers of this review will be willing to travel for any length of time to see such amazing beauty. However, be aware that there is a lot of back road to ride over before you can start your hike.
