- Zion National Park, UT - The Narrows is an iconic hike in Zion National Park. We will be hiking from the Temple of Sinawava along the riverside walk, then into the Virgin River for approximately 2 miles upstream. The towering cliffs, handing gardens, and springs provide excellent photo opportunities. We will hike as far as the Orderville Canyon, before returning along the same route to the Temple of Sinawava. Though there is not much elevation gain on this hike, it is challenging to forge upstream while navigating large submerged river stones. We will enjoy a charcuterie board picnic on the beautiful grassy lawn of the Zion Lodge.

We took this tour in July... - We took this tour in July 2025 - 2 adults, 2 teens. It was definitely a strenuous hike mainly due to the rocks you are walking on for the 4 miles in the water. The water was cold, but the highest it ever got was waist deep and that was for a small part. I would not do this tour without the boots/socks and poles. Our guide gave us each two poles, which felt like overkill at the beginning, was not overkill at all on the hike due to the terrain! As a 50 year old female, if I was doing it again, I would only go half way on the 4 miles that is in the water. But I am proud that I managed to complete the whole 6 miles.
Michael was our guide and he was great. I felt very safe being with him. Our teens were a little unsure of the charcuterie lunch, but they did enjoy it. Would definitely use Cedar & Sage again.

Family Trip to The Narrows - Our experience started at 7:00 am. At that moment, we geared up with water, snacks, canyoning boots, and walking sticks. Afterwards, we gathered the shuttle that would transport us to the most amazing journey of our vacations. After the shuttle transported us to our stop, we walked up the trail to the Virgin River Canyon. Once we got to the river entrance, we got immersed into the beautiful scenery and the colors of the canyon. Our early start helped us avoid the hot temperatures of an August summer day as well the crowds. I cannot explain in a few words the views, the colors, the awe struck scenery and the beauty of the Narrows. The gear that was provided was helpful to complete our journey safely and enjoyable. But this amazing journey would be impossible to complete without our guide Moises. He was kind to show us all the details of the canyon, from the intricacies of the red sandstone, to the interactions of the sunlight, the sandstone and the river. Moises was also attentive to our needs and at the right moment, gave us a charcuterie lunch stop at the most stunning spot of the trail. His personalized guide and stories of the canyon made the journey an amazing and awesome experience. Definitely follow the instructions sent prior to the tour. They will definitely help you have a wonderful experience. I would not hesitate to go back with them once again.

Top Notch - The Sage and Cedar Narrows hike was the best guided tour our family has taken so far. Moises was a warm caring informative professional guide for our hike. We hiked with our two adult children and the pace was perfect, the lunch was delicious. Very Highly recommend this tour for your next trip to Zion.

- Moises was absolutely amazing! He was kind, always checked in on us to make sure we were doing okay. He challenged us and made the experience a truly positive one. The charcuterie lunch was so nice, given the surroundings he made it very special. He paused for us to take in the beauty around us and offered to take photos of us, he very thoughtful. I felt like Moises prepared us properly with the shoes, water socks, waterproof backpack and trekking poles, it really made the hike a much more pleasurable one. Five stars ✨

Stunning, spectacular and unforgettable - Stunning and spectacular the views in The Narrows! It is by far our favorite hike of all time and made possible by our extraordinary guide, Michael Cooper of Cedar and Sage. He kept us safe on all those rocks and he was kind, respectful of the gorgeous land and water, and very knowledgeable. And the special footwear and trekking poles were solid and so appreciated. Thanks for a very memorable experience.

Awesome hike and great guide! - We did this back in March 2025 and this was simply an incredible experience. Definitely a physical endurance test at some points, deep water, strong currents & slippery rocks. Michael is a very knowledgeable, friendly, personable and prepared guide. The charcuterie board was amazing. I communicated with DJ after booking and he was very knowledgeable and patient with all my questions via text.
