Guided 4x4 access to White Pocket and the Paria Canyon slot canyons

About

Coral Cliffs Tours runs guided 4x4 trips out of Kanab into the Vermilion Cliffs and Paria Canyon backcountry, the kind of terrain — deep sand, no marked roads — that keeps most rental SUVs parked at the trailhead. Guides drive you in, handle the permits and route-finding, and give you time to actually look around instead of worrying about getting stuck. With a 5.0 rating from nearly 1,000 reviews, this is one of the most consistently praised outfitters in the area.

What they run

  • White Pocket — sunrise, sunset, and daytime trips through the swirled sandstone formations
  • South Coyote Buttes — combined with White Pocket on longer outings
  • Wire Pass and Buckskin Gulch — slot canyon hiking with a guide who knows current conditions
  • Peekaboo Slot Canyon and the Great Chamber — a shorter combo tour

Reviewers consistently single out the guides by name — Julie handling bookings and questions before the trip, drivers like Quinn, Steve, Kenny, and Kyle out on the ground — for knowing the terrain, adjusting plans when a route floods or fills with water, and pointing out photo spots without crowding the shot. Some tours meet partway between Kanab and Page for pickup, so ask when booking. Given the demand these trips see, especially for sunrise and sunset slots, booking ahead is the move rather than a same-week gamble.

Hands down one of the BEST experiences of our Southwest vacation so far! My son and I did the private Jeep tour with Aaron, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met him, he made the day fun, relaxed, and unforgettable. Aaron is incredibly knowledgeable about the area and shared so many interesting facts along the way. He knew exactly where to take us for the most breathtaking views and even helped us capture amazing photos, suggesting the best spots, angles, and poses. We came home with some of our favorite pictures from our entire trip because of him. The Great Chamber and Peek-a-Boo Slot Canyon were absolutely breathtaking, and there's no way we could have experienced them like this on our own. The Jeep ride itself was an adventure and made getting to these incredible places part of the experience. Aaron is an outstanding guide, and we can't recommend him enough. Thank you for an unforgettable day!

We had an amazing experience with this White Pocket tour company. I reached out to Julie before booking, and she was super helpful and responsive, answering all my questions by email ahead of time. We started from Page and met our guide at the midpoint. Quinn arrived right on time (even though we were a little late 😅). We were also traveling with our dog, and it was great that there was no extra dog fee. Quinn was a fantastic driver and handled the deep sand roads smoothly and confidently. He shared a lot about how the rock formations were formed and never rushed us while we were taking photos. He pointed out great photo spots and always stepped out of the way so he wouldn’t end up in our shots. We got so many beautiful photos at White Pocket. This time we did a daytime tour due to our schedule, but we’d love to come back for sunset or sunrise next time. We would definitely book with this company again and highly recommend them to friends.

We had amazing time few days ago visiting White Pocket! Beautiful and unique rock formations. Our guide Drew was very pleasant. He had shown us a condors with his binoculars, told us lot of things about White Pocket itself and about Utah and USA. He was eager to make photo of us and guided through best places around White Pocket. It was great trip. Big thanks to You Drew for all those photos, conversations and Your engagement!

My wife, daughter, and I toured White Pocket today with Drew as our guide. He was incredibly friendly, easy going, patient, knowledgable, accommodating, and kind. If you want, he’ll take you on his own personalized tour route through the area which maximizes the sightseeing experience and maintains an ideal distance from other groups. As a bonus, he took many very creative photos of our family throughout the area. When I asked about Buckskin Gulch and mentioned we might visit there in a couple days. he went out of his way to exit the area a different way to travel past Buckskin Gulch parking so that we could become familiar with its location and return drive. It was definitely a top rate experience and a highlight of our western trip which we highly recommend.

The tour was fantastic. Raymond was our tour guide and it was clear that he knew the area and the slot canyon like the back of your hand. He knew all of the history, details in the canyon, and features that others were unaware of. He let us go at our pace and did not rush through the trail like some others that got there after us and left before us. We appreciated the detailed knowledge and the experience he lent to our tour. I would recommend Coral Canyon tours while visiting the area for all of your needs.
