After experiencing the Mighty Five trip, We can definitely say it was perfectly planned and executed as we could keep going on about our Utah National Parks trip and this travel company.

There were so many incredible moments from our trip that it’s very hard to select even just a few. Every day was a new experience and we loved that Utah is rich in culture and history— having a local guide highlighted that fact. Kiley was truly proud of her state and we delighted in experiencing that deep affection with our guide.

We would have to say that all of the different accommodations that Southern Utah Scenic Tours selected were fine and we enjoyed going to every new location to see where we would be sleeping for the night.

Our trip was filled with breathtaking views and accommodating hikes. Our group’s physical abilities were respected with ample opportunities for more or less personal additions to the basic itinerary.

We believe that this trip represented great value for the cost. Our booking was easy, the pre-information packet was timely and thorough. Interim questions were handled promptly and thoroughly, including Will going out of his way to help us with our initial questions and concerns. The van was comfortable as we traveled in a quality Mercedes vehicle. Everything worked like clockwork. However, it was the genius of the itinerary, coupled with our passionate guide Kiley that made it fall into the A category. We would travel again with Southern Utah Scenic Tours and recommend this tour to friends and family.

My wife and I have visited all 50 states and 25 international countries, but the 10 Day Grand Circle National Parks tour with Southern Utah Scenic Tours was, perhaps, the finest travel experience we have enjoyed. The small group with whom we traveled was like being with family. The scenery was incredible, the food was very good (especially the Navajo Taco!), the lodgings were convenient and comfortable, and the pacing of the tour was just right. However, ONE aspect of the tour stood out which made it truly unforgettable. That was our incredible tour guide, Kiley Bice, who went out of her way to ensure that our time was simply unforgettable. We were a group of 7 seniors ranging in age from 65-76 years old, and she led us through what a number of us said was our most memorable travel experience yet. She is first of all knowledgeable and enthusiastic about this part of the country in which she grew up. She is also kind and considerate regarding the things we wanted to see and do. It was a scripted itinerary, however, she permitted us to make choices and see things which many travelers do not see on such a trip. My greatest memories will be the wonders of Antelope Canyon and Monument Valley, both places of which I had heard. However, the descriptions do not do justice to the reality of being there in person. Kiley intrigued us with visits to see petroglyphs and pictographs, some of which were over a thousand years old. Some of these were well off the beaten trail, and I am confident that most visitors never see them. My wife and I cannot strongly enough recommend this company, this tour, and, especially, this young woman as a guide if you plan a visit to Southern Utah

We just completed the 5 day Mighty Five tour of the 5 National Parks in Southern Utah. It was a spectacular experience. The tour company owner, Will Warner, was very helpful in the planning of the trip and very easy to get hold of. The accommodations each night were really nice-- clean and friendly. A couple of the hotels were exceptional. The restaurants were also very good, with two of them in Moab being excellent. Of course, the best thing about the tour was the national parks themselves. If you have not seen them, you cannot appreciate their magnificence and their uniqueness. Our expert guide, Bob Grove, knew literally everything about the parks and lead us on some spectacular hikes. We also did plenty of sightseeing, seeing vistas found no where else in the US. Southern Utah Scenic Tours knows how to do it right. Lastly, if you can afford to privatize the tour, that will make your experience even better. More room and the ability to switch things up to suit your preferences.

It's nature beauty I have never seen before. The architecture of natural mountain. It's highly recommended place to visit. There are so many people visited. They arranged as a group. Each group has 10-12 people. When we walked inside to enjoy seeing and taking photo we sometimes cannot take time with it.

Hello, I think you have the wrong company. We have not taken a group to Antelope in the last two months. Although we do arrange for tours of Antelope with the Navajo authorized tour companies, in the end, the Navajo Nation has determined the amount of time each tour group is allowed to spend in the canyon. Unless you are taking the "photography tour" it is a sightseeing tour with a small amount of time to take photos. It sounds like you may have taken the tour with Antelope Canyon Tours or Antelope Slot Canyon Tours. Best, Will

This trip was fabulous! The days were jam packed with information and beautiful sights in each of the parks whether National or State parks! Our guide, Eugene, was absolutely the best! He made sure we saw everything in a timely manner but yet we never felt rushed. He let us stay longer than he probably anticipated when we wanted. He was a retired Utah Park Ranger so we really hit the jackpot with him.

We would recommend this trip! We went with 4 college friends so that also was a plus! We started 9 out of ten days at 7 a.m and didn’t finish until sometimes 8 at night. It was long days but yet we saw and did so much the length was worth it! Yes we were tired but yet each day we started refreshed and anew! We are 70 years old and my husband did all of the hikes. I did not do 1 and 1/2 of another as they were on very uneven and rocky terrain but that is because I am not very coordinated
Take the trip! It was awesome

Southern Utah Scenic Tours, owned and opated be Will Warren, provided a lifetime of memories to treasure.
After cancelling our trip because of COVID last year, Will and the team at Southern Utah Scenic Tours did an amazing job rebooking and modifying our trip for this year. We received a detailed, day-by-day itinerary, great hotel accommodations, and awesome excursions booked by the company, for a smooth and so enjoyable trip.
Will really went out of his way to accommodate our requests, which we so appreciated. In addition to magnificent scenery, we enjoyed great excursions, including horseback riding, helicopter rides, photo workshop, mountain biking, and river rafting. The hotels were all centrally located, clean with free breakfasts where possible. The boutique Cougar Ranch casitas and stop in Capital Reef park wad especially memorable.
I absolutely recommend Southern Utah Scenic Tours to anyone wanting to visit the areas the company represents. They are simply stellar.

This is our second tour with Southern Utah Scenic Tours (the other was the Grand Circle Tour) and both have been wonderful. The guides are extremely knowledgeable about the areas you visit and pack in a lot more locations than the itinerary promises. You would never see as much planning and driving the area yourself as there are so many hidden gems that are not touted by other tours or mentioned on most internet sites. The Mercedes vans are comfortable and you will make new friends with the other couples you travel with. I highly recommend booking with SUST if you are considering travel in the areas that they explore.

Back in 2019, my wife and I planned the Mighty Five tour with Southern Utah Scenic Tours. We were to travel in 2020 but due to COVID, we had to reschedule a couple of times. Southern Utah Scenic Tours was great in accommodating us in our change of plans. We were finally able to take this tour this past week. The views and vistas of the Mighty Five were second to none. They were more than we expected and how lucky we were to have Kiley Bice as our guide, Because of Kiley, the name of the tour should be changed to the Mighty Six. She was spectacular in every way. She was totally knowledgeable about the parks and the surrounding areas. She was extremely passionate in her job. It truly shows how much she loves what she does. She had many stories to relay about the parks and other areas we visited. We were blessed to have her as our guide.
The trip was well laid out. There were 10 people in our group. We found this small amount to be perfect. We had fun on the bus and got to meet some very wonderful people. We had a mix of light to moderate hiking and good hiking shoes are a must. There were plenty of snacks and waters on the transport vehicle to provide hydration and nourishment.
The accommodations were great and the food recommendations were spot on.
We give Kiley Bice and Southern Utah Scenic Tours-Mighty Five a big two thumbs up along with a huge and loud, "Heck Yeah!!".

We had the best time! My parents treated me, my husband, our 3 kids, my brother and his fiancé to a private Mighty 5 tour. We had a big age range from my parents in their 60s, to the other adults in our early 40s, to the kids which were ages 9, 10 and 12. Our guide was Bob Grove and he now feels like part of our family!

There was a lot of driving but there were plenty of scenic stops and places to hike and explore along the way. Of course our favorite lodging was the night at the Cougar Ridge Ranch in Torrey. We finished up our day early enough to be able to walk around and enjoy all of the animals and the deluxe accommodations.

We added on a sunset hummer tour in Moab that was amazing! We were a little scared to be going on Hell's Revenge but it turned out to be a highlight for a lot of us.

We got to meet up with Will as our driver on our Zion day and we really enjoyed him as well. I can't emphasize enough that the guides take the trip to a whole different level. They are so fun and personable. If we had been trying to do Zion by ourselves we would have been arguing and stressed about all of the crowds and parking situation. Instead we were enjoying ourselves while everything was taken care of for us.

We loved all of the different hikes and Bob was very knowledgeable about all of the different places we visited. Some days had more hiking than others but our kids even liked the days that were more scenic stops than a lot of hiking because they were able to just get out and explore while the adults took in the beauty of the surroundings.

Bob helped my brother plan and execute a surprise proposal at Canyonlands National Park and it turned out wonderfully! It was an added bonus that Bob also takes professional photographs and we can't wait to see all of his pictures from the trip.

The last couple of days were starting to get a little hot on the hikes and I don't think the trip would have been as enjoyable if it were much warmer. I think the kids especially would have started getting whiny. Other than that we had perfect weather that was cooler in the mornings and evenings and nice hiking weather during the day.

We look forward to doing a different trip with Bob in the future!

My wife and I chose the self guided option of the Mighty 5 plus Dead Horse and Goblin Valley State Parks with Southern Utah Scenic Tours. One word for the entire process and trip: SPECTACULAR! Will and Jaime gave us the most incredible 9 day itinerary that took us from Las Vegas to Salt Lake City. Every day was wonderfully outlined in the travel package and we felt like we had plenty of time to see every attraction. The lodging was outstanding and always close to the parks we were visiting. The restaurant recommendations were spot on every time! The local knowledge they provided in the travel package was invaluable for the entire trip and provided us with tips to sights, hikes and scenery that we would have never found on our own. We feel like we have truly experienced the beauty of southern Utah! Thanks for a wonderful trip!! Everything was perfect!
