Most enjoyable day in Arizona - Kathleen was a great guide. We never would have enjoyed the area as much without her insights and explanations. There was a good combination of hiking, vista stops and lunch break.

Great tour! - We were lucky enough to be the only couple in this tour and our tour guide Jake definitely made us feel like VIP’s! We found him extremely knowledge and accommodating to our MANY questions regarding the history and geology of the area, which were our specific interests, and he had all the answers. We were lucky to have him to ourselves as would’ve never asked such specific off-topic questions with a full tour group. Our day was relaxed and unhurried, Jake was willing to stop whenever and wherever we liked, never felt rushed. We ended up with some great pictures of the beautiful Superstition Mountains and Apache Trail . We even got to stop for lunch and he gave us time to listen to some live music on our own. All in all a wonderful experience - we highly recommend! Thanks Jake!

Superstition Mountain Tour - The tour guide was Kari, who was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable about the places we went to, the desert and nature, and the history of of the area. It was quite fascinating to see the Sonoran desert as it is, protected from development, and all of its beauty. Kari pointed out much of the bushes and plants, nature and wildlife. The history of the area is also interesting, dating back millions of years, and coming forth to the present day. Superstition Mountain was awesome. Hiking in the desert, and through the river bed, was a highlight of the trip. Seeing Canyon Lake, and the canyon around it, was very beautiful. We also made a stop at Apacheland, a former movie studio where many westerns were filmed, and Goldfield, a replica ghost mining town. Taking in the beautiful nature, the quiet surroundings, and the natural beauty of the desert, was an incredible experience. Thank you, Kari for a great tour today!

Recommend! - My daughter and I had a fantastic day with Kathleen! It was beautiful, educational, relaxing and fun. My daughter has some physical disabilities and Kathleen was kind and accommodating to make sure she enjoyed the day to the fullest. The hike was on a paved path, so very easy to navigate. It was so nice to sit back and let someone else do the planning for the day. The drive was stunning. Highly recommend!
