My son and I had an amazing day with Whitney, our guide, on an excursion to the Eye of the Needle day trip. Whitney was smart, witty, sweet, kind, a great communicator, and competent. She connected emotionally, made us feel safe, and was a great leader. We'd follow her anywhere.
It was fun watching her rig up the rappel stations. She was fast. She had an eagle eye for ensuring we remained safe as we transitioned down. With a middle aged guy like me she was patient.
On the Via Ferrata back up I got scared and Whitney was right there making sure I was ok, snapping a few photos along the way and leading us back to safety.
On the hike back up she was patient again, and on the ride home she "bro'd" down with my son and had a deeper chat about life.
So, if you want a guide that's going to provide an amazing experience while connecting with you, and is a really nice and good person, ask for Whitney at Zion Adventures.
We would definitely ask for Whitney again when we come back. Thank you Zion Adventures and Whitney for a perfect day of fun and adventure!
I just wanted to take a moment to shout out Rick and his amazing team for taking such great care of us! From the moment we arrived, to the gear fitting, to sending us off on our way to The Narrows, they were all so incredibly kind and caring and patient with our group of 9. We were excited to experience The Narrows and they made it so much better by showing us what we needed for the trek. They explained everything so well with a poster map and thoroughly so we would know exactly what to expect, and honestly they were all genuinely excited for us to see The Narrows, as much as we were! We spent a good 6hrs at The Narrows and I seriously could not imagine doing it without their gear. The socks/shoes were so comfortable and helpful when navigating the slippery rocks and current. The walking stick was a must - I would have fallen many times had I not had the stick to stabilize myself against the current. Their store is well organized, clean, and a cool respite from the 104 degree heat. They have things you can buy that you may have forgotten for your trip. Anyways, this company is the real deal and what the world needs more of. They have a passion for people and a vision for helping others have the best experience at Zion and it shows. They are best in class so don't even think about going anywhere but here for your Zion experience!!! You can thank me later, haha! Ps. I also want to shout out the lady on the phone (Faye?) who also took the time to run down everything with me the night before. She was awesome!
10/05/2024 Had a great day canyoning with our Guide Adam! We chose the Huntress canyon, which was great for our skill level (one of us rock climbs and one doesn’t.) The views were amazing and the experience will forever be a favorite memory. Highly recommend Zion Adventures and Adam for his expert knowledge, safety first mentality, and friendly personality. Thank you! -The wasp ladies🐝🐝
