What guests said

“We went on the "Mighty Five " tour begining October 5th. We had such a a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Sonsari was truly the best! She was very fun and knowledgeable! She even stopped at a Roadside stand for watermelon and we ate it in the park! She went over and above what was expected in her position. We had 8 passengers on our bus mostly in our 70's and she took care of all of us! She made our trip fun and memorable. 💗”

“We just returned from this tour. Our guide Steve Griffin was the best! He is quite knowledgeable about all of the Utah parks, professional and absolutely loves his job! We lucked out to have him as our guide. Be advised this a walking/hiking tour with jam packed long days. If you're looking for laid back sightseeing, this is not your tour. There is so much to see and lots of special spots that Steve made sure we did not miss including sunrise at Bryce Canyon. I highly recommend this tour!”

“I had an amazing time touring Utah’s Mighty 5 National Parks out of Las Vegas. It was an experience I will never forget. Our guide, Kendra was phenomenal! She shared insights and stories that made the trip even more special. The tour was well planned and accommodation's were comfortable and clean. It was great traveling with a smaller, friendly and fun group of people. I highly recommend this tour, and Kendra if you want to see the best of Utah!”

Overview
By joining one of our most popular tours, Southwest Adventure Tours will guide you through Utah's Mighty 5 National Parks in just five days - Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, and Zion. Each park offers spectacular scenery and unique geological formations, all within the breathtaking region of Southern Utah.
We love showing off our home state of Utah, and guiding tours through its national parks and other scenic areas is our specialty. Our guides have visited these places countless times and we know them like the backs of our hands. Along the way, we share the region's culture, history, geology, and botany, bringing every stop to life. We'll also take you to those hidden gems that many travelers never get to see!
This tour is purposely designed to be 5 days in length for our guests to enjoy Utah’s Mighty 5 in 5 days, buffering a full travel day on each end of the tour, since most people plan for one-week vacations. Our tour is also customizable. It can include more physical and adventurous activities, more leisurely sightseeing, or more days to do both! It can also be modified to spend more time in specific places. Contact us for further details.
Our Mighty 5 tours consist of small groups of no more than 14 guests and a private guide. Hiking, scenic viewpoints, local eateries, hidden gems, and other fantastic experiences await anyone joining us on this tour. It will be a week of adventure that you won’t soon forget!

- Maintained trails with uneven footing, steps and sustained climbs. Up to six miles across a full day, usually in two or three separate walks.
- Full days out, often above 6,000ft, and canyon country runs over 100°F from June to August. Shade is not guaranteed.
- Not suitable for a wheelchair, a walker or anyone who cannot manage stairs without a rail. Comfortable if you walk regularly.
- Your guide may change or drop a stop for weather, road closures or time. What is walked on the day is their call.
Anything specific — a knee, a hip, a height worry, a wheelchair — is worth one phone call to 800-970-5864. We would rather move you to a different trip than have you on the wrong one.
