Sunset tour - May 2025 - The sunset tour was great! It was a long ride but it well worth it. BIG thanks to our guide Jeffrey who walked us through this incredible formation and helped with lots of pictures!

Fantastic and unforgettable experience! - Fantastic and an otherworldly landscape! Our knowledgable guide Raymond did everything to make our Sunset White Pocket tour unforgettable despite a heavy cold rain during all three hours of our hike! This amazing otherworldly place left us speechless by its swirling white mounds, the waves, the colors and the textures, unique rock formations and stunning views. Raymond shared his knowledge of the unique geology of the area, best photo spots, dinosaur tracks, and more. We loved it a lot! It was a fantastic, magical experience. We highly recommend this tour.

White Pocket Tour out of this world AMAZING!!!🤩 - My husband and I had been obsessing over going to White Pocket after being so lucky to have won The Wave lottery last year in Page! We knew it would be too risky to take our Sprinter out there with the road being very deep sand. We decided to give Coral Cliff Tours a try after reading all their great reviews and we are here to say they definitely lived up to our expectations! Raymond was our guide and he was fantastic! He grew up his whole life in Kanab and has extensive knowledge of the entire area! He showed us so many things we wouldn’t have seen without him, he gave us great photo recommendations too! You could tell he was a natural at navigating the terrain and we felt so safe and taken care of with him as our guide:) Our group was us plus 2 more fabulous people and we all agreed it was one of our fave experiences of our lives! Being out at White Pocket does truly give you sense that you have been transported to another planet… We had Sun, clouds, some thunder and even lightening…All of which just added to the mystique of the experience! We found the drive out and back to be enjoyable as well…. It is a long day, but it is a long AMAZING DAY! Thanks so much Raymond… we will most definitely request you for our next tour with Coral Cliffs when we are back in the area! Wendy and Vini ✌🏼

Love it! - Great hike with Steve and Kyle. Plenty of time to explore at our own pace. Amazing formations and colorings, as well as pockets of water that gave us an opportunity for reflection pictures. Would book with this company again!!! and I did!

Highlight Of Our Vacation - We had been to the White Pockets with another tour company about 5 years ago. Coral Cliffs was far superior to the other company. Coral Cliffs allowed us much more time at White Pockets, was very instructive and knew the best places to take pictures. I definitely recommend them.

Ten stars out of 5. - This small business is simply put, EXCELLENT! Customer service is 10 stars out of 5. We felt fortunate to have been paired with Sherwin, one of their most incredible guides. He was amazing from start to finish. He imparted a ton of knowledge about the area. He was very patient & helpful & didn't rush us. Took us to all the highlights of White Pocket. We had planned this trip months in advance & had picture perfect weather, as GREAT LUCK would have it. White Pocket is a SPECTACULAR place. It is fortunate that you "currently" don't need a permit to visit White Pocket. I would not doubt, however that at some point they do start requiring permits. Just glad we got to do it now & there were few people when we arrived. But by the time our visit was over, there were quite a few people queuing up for the visit in the parking lot. The hike from the parking lot to White Pocket is only about 15 minutes. Once you're at White Pocket, it's a very easy stroll around the entirety of White Pocket. So this is an easy visit. I made a 'wish' at, "THE WORMHOLE" (ask your guide about it) & my 'wish' came TRUE (we won the geofencing lottery to hike THE WAVE 2 days later!). If you are thinking about driving the road there yourself, you should SERIOUSLY RECONSIDER. That road is TRECHEROUS! There was NO FREAKIN' WAY I was gonna risk getting us stuck in that sand! This is why we hired Coral Cliffs. And we were SUPER HAPPY we did after experiencing that road. And we heard horror stories of people paying over $1,000.00 to have someone come'n tow them out of the sand. NO WAY we wanted to risk that. I've driven all over the world in all kinds of weather & all kinds of terrain. This was not something I wanted to tackle. And just please FORGET about trying to take a regular car. It will NOT make it. You're pushing your luck even in a Jeep! You will definitely need a very high clearance/4 wheel drive vehicle & a bonus would be to have a winch! Just hire Coral Cliffs to take you. They are experts & will get you there in safety & comfort. This was a magical place on a magical day with an incredibly excellent guide from a wonderful travel company, Coral Cliffs in Kanab, Utah. We will definitely use them in the future.

Sunset Off-Road White Pocket Guided Hike - White pocket is beautiful! We absolutely loved wandering around and exploring. Our guides were both great! Kenny and Drew were super friendly and knowledgeable. They helped everyone get fun photos and pointed out interesting plants, rocks, etc. That part of the tour was amazing! However, the drive there and back were very unpleasant and kind of soured the whole experience. The van was jam-packed. Even though it can fit 10 people doesn't mean that it should. Plus with a group that big everyone kept wandering in the way of photos. Each drive was about an hour longer than the itinerary says, so three hours each way for about three hours of exploring White Pocket. We also left about 45 minutes late because the previous tour group ran over their time. If you get lucky and don't have a full tour group of 10 people I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time!
