Unforgettable adventures with breathtaking views - Best guide ever!!! Guided hikes were fantastic - they challenged us just enough. Matt is such a thoughtful guide, so aware of everyone’s physical capacities but wants to ensure you get the most out of your time with him - always willing to impart his vast knowledge and history of the land, geology and culture. We were able to fit in a hike in the Grand Canyon, a hike through cathedral wash with a quick toe dip in the colorado river, horsehoe canyon and upper/lower antelope. And what happens when a few women decide to run a half marathon and your guide loves to run, he joins in and runs alongside with you. Hands down, highly recommend Matt as your go to guide for National Parks. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also an amazing COOK - from our roadside picnics, to our treasure trove of car snacks, he leaves no stone unturned. Thank you for such an amazing experience - absolutely unforgettable
