Don’t Just Take Our Word For It…
Jeff was Amazing!!! If you are looking for a Great Adventure this is the company to book! Jeff made it possible for us to see some of Utah’s most beautiful country with our parents! He was incredibly accommodating and gracious. He customized our trip to our interests, abilities and available time. We saw the most Incredible and Unique Country and had a Awesome time doing it! Everything was top of line from UTV to Safety Equipment. Best tour we have been on and we can’t recommend them enough!
Jeff is a gracious and fun host. He is knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. He has an expansive understanding of the region, and was kind in sharing hiking suggestions for after we left Kanab and headed north on our getaway. You’ll have a wonderful experience with Jeff.
Jeff is a wonderful host and very competent. He knows the area very well and is a great driver, as the roads in are rough and very sandy. I was very lucky to have him as a guide. He went out of his way to make our tour personal and enjoyable. I won’t sign on with any other tour.
I’m a native of southern Utah and have tried for years to draw on the Wave hike lottery, but with no luck. A group of us decided we would try one more time, but struck out again. We had the good fortune of crossing paths with Jeff as we were getting ready to leave the BLM office. He gave us a few suggestions for great day trips and we quickly decided to have him take us to White Pocket. Wow, just wow! I wish I had known about the area earlier, would not have wasted time trying for the Wave. We got all kinds of cool insight throughout the day and Jeff pointed us to the little things I think most people would miss, like petroglyphs and native hide-aways.
At Buckskin Gulch he guided us through the slotcanyon, telling lots of interesting and fun facts. He took all the time we needed. We sat down for a nice picknick an wandered through the canyon. We thougth this was it, being very satisfied so far, but on our way back he even took us to see a wonderfull spot at Staircase Escalante. We could never have made it with our RV. Jeff is a great host, friendly, fun and kind. We certainly recommend his tours.
This time we were lucky and won in the “Lottery” in Kanab the permit for “The Wave”! As we did some wonderful tours to the White Pocket and Coyote Buttes South with Jeff Welker last September we wanted to go with him again.
