We had the pleasure of being on a tour of Canyonlands and Arches nat’l parks. Nick and Jim were our guides on both tours. Both of them were great tour guides with lots of interesting facts and fun stories. They made sure we stayed hydrated and they knew where to get the best photos. Our driver Frank was a good safe driver and also had a nice personality.

We had a great time! We took the Canyon Spirit train ride into Moab and then the Mighty 5 tour of the national parks with Moab Express. Our tour guide, Nick, who was with us the 3 days, was fun, professional and did an excellent job of keeping us informed, on schedule and explaining everything we were seeing (and even keeping us apprised of all the rest stops😄.) We appreciated Nick’s friendliness, expertise and his love for what he does. Fudge, the guide in the other van with us was also very knowledgeable and always willing to answer anyone’s questions. The train ride was great, but the tour of the national parks was the highlight of our trip. My only regret is that I wished there was more time to see Zion as I felt we only touched lightly on seeing that park. I’m not sure how the tour could be made to accommodate that as the 3 days really does cover a lot. Maybe a tour option that passes Capitol Reef to enable more time in Zion? Although I did like seeing that park as well. Like I said, I don’t have an answer. All in all we would definitely recommend Moab Express and ask for Nick! ( and Fudge!) Thanks for an amazing time!

We toured the Arches National Park. The tour guide Nick was outstanding. He had a very upbeat personality and was very knowledgeable about everything we saw. He made our trip very pleasurable and we would recommend it to anyone traveling to Moab.

Our guide was a retired park ranger who was so informative and kind. They gave use the best goodie bag. Appropriate for our trip. Kept us hydrated. We had an excellent driver. I was on the Sept 10th, 2026 morning tour. It was perfect for older tourists!! Great adventure! And the motercoach was in excellent condition. 10 star rating all around!

When we began our trip of the Mighty 5 in Utah, I knew we would experience some of the most amazing National Parks in the country. As wonderful as I thought this adventure could be, it was beyond that. When we boarded our passenger van, we met five other travelers who would form our group. The small group size and van allowed us to develop friendships and maneuver into areas a larger group could not. Our guide, Ben, added everything to the experience. He is extremely knowledgeable of each park and all of the surrounding areas. Ben was able to take us to spots that you would probably not see on your own or on other tours. He provided that extra insight that made the experience personal to us, and increased our understanding of the geological and political development of the parks. Ben had a great deal of personal information that made this trip exceptional, and most important, he was always aware that our safety and comfort was first priority. Each park is unique and just when you have seen what you think is your favorite park, you find that you are enjoying the next park even more. Every day we were blown away by what we were experiencing. One highlight was when Ben spotted a bull long horn sheep on a ridge in Zion. He quickly pulled over and we found the bull’s harem safely grazing in the canyon below. Just another day in the Mighty 5!

Absolutely wonderful tour, everything is done with professionalism and a smile. They take care of every detail and step along the way. You literally just have to relax and take it all in. I did the Mightly Five tour. Saw incredible scenery, heard about the history of the parks and the geology and ecology of them as well. Mark and Jesso, our guides, made it all happen. They make a great team. Jesso was our van's driver/guide. Smart, knowledgeable and friendly. Easy to spend 3 days with. You can tell she loves the parks. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed.
