Great Canyon Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

My husband and I were in SLC for only a very short time and wanted to see something outside of the city. We chose the 1/2 day scenic canyon tour. Shawn, our guide, provided a wonderful experience. He was extremely accommodating and very knowledgeable. His vehicle has a sunroof that extends the entire length of the car and that was an amazing feature as it allowed us to view the full scope of the mountains. We can highly recommend Shawn and the canyon tour!

Amazing Experience of Cottonwood Canyons

Published on Nov, 2024

It was an amazing experience The tour guide Shawn was absolutely the best in escorting the entire tour No. 1 recommended

Great views and great company.

Published on Oct, 2024

This private tour is exactly what you need if you come to see the beauty of Utah, but do not know where to start. The panoramic roof allows for the best views while on the road. Shawn was a great tour; he reached out the day before the tour and stayed in communication until we were picked up. He had great suggestions for places to visit and eat. If you are looking for views and great conversation, this is the tour for you.

Wonderful trip through the canyons

Published on Oct, 2024

What a wonderful trip through the canyons with Shawn. The canyons are spectacular, made even better by fresh snow on the mountain tops and color on the trees. Our tram ride was cancelled due to repairs, Shawn made some quick adjustments and took us through more canyons to see some waterfalls, it was perfect. Shawn was such a wonderful tour guide, he made the trip. Thank you so much Shawn for a special day

Scenic, Relaxing Drive

Published on Sep, 2024

Highly reccomend BeUTAHful Tours!! Shawn made the long drive fun and interesting with his knowledge and conversation. Car was very clean and comfortable (which is important for long drives). We enjoyed our time so much that we ended up booking a second tour through BeUTAHful Tours since there were a bunch more to choose from on their website!
