Amazing experience! The were very efficient and they took my already previously damaged bed from years ago, and fixed it when they put it back together I was beyond pleased!
My boyfriend and I had an amazing time with Quinn yesterday! Definitely worth waking up at the crack of freakin dawn. I recommend doing the morning tour, you're in the shade the majority of the time and miss the crowds.
Fantastic experience! I have four kids 11-2 and ALL of them enjoyed using these paddle boards. Really great customer service.
Awesome experience, this isn't like Antelope where they rush you through a slot canyon, here you have about a 2 mile walk through a slot canyon then into a broader canyon that's pretty awesome.

The nearest airport, Page Municipal, sits just 5 miles away, while those flying into larger hubs will find Flagstaff Pulliam Airport 135 miles distant.
