    I've taken canyoneering trips from several different outfits in Moab and these guys are my pick of the litter! We just did the Morning Glory Arch trip with Taylor and Melissa and it was everything we could have hoped for. Very professional, knowledgeable, personable, and thorough. Made us feel safe, confident, and had a great time.

    My girlfriend and I just finished a great canyoneering trip with Desert Highlights. Herb and Taylor were both fantastic and made us feel comfortable and safe. I highly recommend booking with these guys if you want a great guided adventure in Moab.

    My husband and I had the best trip with Herb! It was amazing and the best adventure we ever experienced. We will definitely brag about what a great time we had to all! His knowledge of EVERYTHING was incredible. Thanks for making our trip to Moab one to remember!

    My son and I recently did a 2 day canyoneering trip with Melissa. We had a blast because Melissa allowed us to test our abilities. She was professional, nice and extremely knowledgeable. She chose canyons that were challenging and beautiful. We are definitely going to have Melissa take us out again next time we come to Moab. Thank you Melissa for such a memorable trip! Marshall Cohen

    Absolutely LOVED the canyoneering expedition these guys took us on through Entrajo Canyon! Our group of 7 was lucky enough to get two guides, Melissa and Taylor, who were both fantastic! I highly recommend Desert Highlights - they're the best!

Where to stay in Moab

©
For affordable accommodations away from tourist crowds, stay outside Moab's busy downtown. Many inns in this area offer free shuttle services to the central part of town, allowing you quick and easy access to Moab's finest shops and restaurants. If you do not plan to spend much time in your room, consider staying at a budget-friendly motel or hostel. For the ultimate in outdoorsy options, campgrounds inside the area's national parks make up what they lack in modern amenities with their panoramic views of the red desert.
