Canyoneering Vehicle Safaris 

4 Day/3 Night Vehicle Safari - $1,525 Per Person        Rate includes your Guides, Camp Chef/Manager, Gear and Food. Tax and Gratuities not included.                   **Minimum Rate Applies.

Our Canyoneering Vehicle Safaris are designed to suit the adventurous first time canyoneer along with guests that have prior canyoneering experience. Guests follow the Excursions crew in their own vehicles to our base camp, situated in Escalante’s remote back country. By having the vehicles at base camp, guests are able to pack whatever they please, as weight is not an issue. Days are spent descending epic canyons. Each day guests are greeted back at camp with appetizers and hot showers before sitting down to a four course dinner with stunning views of an Escalante sunset. After dinner guests can sit around the campfire, view the Milky Way (with your own eyes!) or retire to roomy tents for a good night’s rest.

**Our Multi-Day trips are All Inclusive. We provide all camping equipment, including sleeping bags, pads, and tents. All food and snacks are provided and prepared by our staff. From the sunscreen to the daypacks and canyon gear we’ve got you covered!**

“Just back from three nights and four FULL days. It was one wonderful adventure – the mud will be cleaned off my boots and the shredded shorts will be replaced, but the wonderful memories, the challenges overcome, the beauty of the canyons and the camaraderie will never pass from my head. And then there was the food.” Tom B. Jones
