Zion National Park Guided Hiking Tours

An Unforgettable Zion Experience

Step beyond crowded viewpoints and immerse yourself in the dramatic, high-elevation landscapes of Zion National Park during one of our guided hiking tours. Your expert driver and guide will transport you deep into remarkable backcountry canyons and hidden overlooks of East Zion, providing invaluable insight into the rich history and fascinating geology of the legendary Grand Staircase. It’s more than just a sightseeing trip—it's an exclusive, hassle-free journey that reveals the secret side of Zion most travelers miss. 

The effects of erosion are visible at every turn, and wildlife will often show themselves as you pass along. It is not uncommon to see deer, wild turkeys, rabbits, and a variety of birds as you venture down into canyons or along scenic corridors. Turkey vultures, hawks and the occasional eagle are often visible overhead. The large California condor with a wingspan of up to nine feet is known to venture into this region from time to time. Forests of pine and juniper with their diverse vegetation will bring sweet aromas as you pass in and out of different vegetation zones. The views and vistas you will see will take your breath away.

Don't miss this incredible experience!
