Bentonite Hills and Cathedral Valley - The area views were amazing. We were glad we rented a tour. It was something we could not have done our own. Mel is very personable and shared good information. We'll do another tour for sure!

Amazing experience! - We had an absolute blast on this tour! Jenny was incredibly knowledgeable and talked us through the history and geological evolution of this place. She also knew the entire area inside out and found some neat pullout spots for us to soak some views in! Also was super flexible and accommodative, which was especially great since we were traveling with an 8 year old. Highly recommend booking with them!

10/10 a must do if you’re in the area - Mel was an incredible tour guide. Took us all over bentonite hills, to moonscape overlook(aka skyline learned that from Mel),factory butte, saw dinosaur fossils(unbelievable quality hope the people that visit here maintain it/don’t degrade it), and much more. Mel deserves double what he’s charging he is the perfect person for this. Very flexible and willing to go with the flow. Absolutely recommend doing this if you’re in the area(roads can be kind of sketchy if you’re not used to rough terrain so it was very helpful to have a guide). P.s. wanted to add photos but viator wont let me upload. Beautiful everywhere you turn in this area we’ll never forget it.

Wonderful experience - I had such a great time with this tour company! They were very knowledgeable about the area and I learned a great deal about the geology and history. They were also flexible in allowing me to explore the Bentonite Hills area and make sure I took all the photos I needed during the blue hour. Don’t hesitate to book this tour company!
