Expedition Kanab

Kanab's backcountry, guided the right way

Kanab, UT

About

Expedition Kanab runs guided UTV and Jeep tours out of Kanab, and it's the go-to way to see the slot canyons and backcountry terrain around town without a permit hassle or your own off-road rig. The signature run is the Peekaboo Slot Canyon and Great Chamber loop, a few hours of winding through narrow sandstone passages and open red-rock country with a guide who knows the fossils, rock formations, and history along the way. Shorter combo tours pair Peekaboo with sand dune sandboarding or the rippled White Wave formation, and there's a sunset option for anyone who wants the canyon in evening light.

Good to know

  • Tours are priced per vehicle, not per person, so groups can split the cost
  • UTVs seat up to 6; private tours and Jeep options are available alongside the standard group departures
  • Drivers must be 21+ with a valid license

With a perfect 5.0 rating across more than 1,000 reviews, the reputation here isn't a fluke — guests consistently call out guides by name for going out of their way, from pointing out geology to setting up a surprise proposal shot at the Great Chamber. Book ahead in peak season; this is a Kanab experience people plan trips around.

Our UTV tour with Expedition Kanab was hands down one of the highlights of our trip! Josh was an incredible guide, fun, knowledgeable, professional, and made the entire experience unforgettable from start to finish. He kept things exciting while also sharing so much information about the area, which made the tour even more enjoyable. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and the ride itself was such a blast. Josh made sure everyone felt comfortable, safe, and had an amazing time. You can truly tell he loves what he does, and that energy made the whole experience even better. This was easily a 10/10 experience for our family, and we would recommend Expedition Kanab to anyone visiting the area. If you can, definitely request Josh, you won’t regret it!

Expedition Kanab did a great job from start to finish! Easy reservation process with a few follow up texts. The tour of Peekaboo and the Great Chamber was fantastic! Bobby provided so many fun tidbits of information along the way to make the day even more special! The whole family enjoyed the UTV experience as well as the sandsurfing. Thank you for the best day!

Such an amazing experience at the Great Chamber with Josh (tour guide). I contacted Expedition Kanab and let them know I was planning on proposing to my girlfriend on this tour. The owner of the company looped in the tour guide and even had some other members of the team waiting for us at the Great Chamber for beautiful camera shots. Truly an amazing company with a group of guides who value nature and history of the area. 11 out of 10 will take another tour with them when I come back with now fiancé!

An amazing side-by-side adventure with an unforgettable tour guide. We decided to have Justin drive so we could just relax and enjoy the whole day, and I’m so glad we did. He made the trip a lot of fun—super knowledgeable, really enthusiastic, and you could tell he genuinely loves his job and being around people. At one point one of our girls said, “show us what you’ve got,” and Justin definitely did. It ended up being the ride of our life. Peekaboo Slot is a spectacular place to see, and Chambers Loop was an adventure in itself. And as a bonus, Justin was also a great photographer, which made the whole experience even better.

I’ve been on a few different tours with two different guides (Brady and Robert), and have thoroughly enjoyed each of the expeditions. One to Peakaboo Canyon, one sunset tour, and the third and most recent - Ride with the Ancients. Guides are knowledgeable, friendly, and down to earth. They take the time to connect with their guests, thoroughly outline necessary safety precautions, and genuinely enjoy what they do. Appreciate the time and effort that the staff puts into these tours to create such fun experiences for both locals and tourists!
