The Experience
What your day looks like
By going on one of our most popular tours, Southwest Adventure Tours will show you Utah’s Mighty 5 national parks in 5 days. Those parks are Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, and Zion. Each park will enable you to see spectacular scenery and unique geological formations all within the region of Southern Utah. We love to show off our home State of Utah, so guiding your tour in these parks and the other scenic areas we cover is our specialty. All of our tour guides have been to these places many, many times. We know all these places like the backs of our hands. All along the way, we know the culture, history, geology, and botany of what will be seen. We’ll also show you all those special places that many other travelers miss out on! 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 13 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!
