About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- ollysd0 contributionsBest Tour!!This was one of the best tours we’ve ever been on. We were a group of 7. We had so much fun learning about the history of the area and the petroglyphs. My kids loved searching for rocks at glitter mountain. Our guide was friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!!!Written 2 July 2022
- Pavaia20190 contributionsPetroglyphs and Glitter Mountain UTV excursionThis tour is perfect for “older “ adults and families with young kids, in my opinion. I was looking for a tour that wouldn’t be so hardcore or extreme. Mike, the guide and driver, was a lot of fun and I would bet he adapts to all different kinds of personalities. Mike seems to be very knowledgeable and very interested in the petroglyphs. The adventure was definitely worth the cost. My husband and I had the tour all to ourselves! Being from Michigan, the desert and mountainous climates were so different for us and it was nice experiencing the scenery close up.Written 18 July 2021
- SuzC1230 contributionsOne of a kind adventure!Fun adventure in the desert! Seeing Petroglyphs, Glittering Rocks, and a cave made for a one of a kind adventure! Mike was a friendly and knowledgeable guide.Written 13 June 2021
- I892SKannb0 contributionsMust see in St. George!Mike was awesome! We appreciated the goggles because it was dusty. Wear good shoes. Outhouse at first site.Written 13 June 2021
- Maps722360 contributionsDefinitely worth doing!Mike is a very laid back guide and fun to spend a few hours with. Obviously very experienced. The Native American petroglyphs and Mike’s interpretation of them were fascinating. Glitter Mountain was a fun add-on and the ATV ride through the spectacular landscape was the icing on the cake.Written 6 June 2021
- delanieLifeisgood0 contributionsFun adventureMike our tour guide was amazing! We had a great experience, the ride was fun, enjoyed the petroglyphs, learned about gypsum and just had an overall fun time. Highly recommend. Be prepared to get a little dusty. Eye protection is a good idea also. Thank you for an awesome adventure! Mom (80 yrs old) loved it! Use Mike's directions, not what your phone gives you, we missed the meet up point, but that was our fault. Highly recommend!Written 27 May 2021

We booked a morning tour to see the dinosaur tracks and it was so good we booked him for the other tour to see the petroglyphs. I felt safe with him in the UTV yet enjoyed the ride. Mike was very courteous and helpful. We have spent 3 weeks touring the southwest and I would rate him the best.

Our family had a fantastic time checking out the Dinosaur tracks and Fort Pearce with our guide Mike. He was very knowledgeable about the sites and even showed us some other hidden spots. We'll definitely do another of his tours next time we're in town.

We had a lot of fun on this tour. We thought initially (after booking last minute) it was all hiking in, but we were very surprised it was desert off roading to Fort Pearce and the Dino tracks. We had a BLAST. Thank you Mike for a great evening! Would highly recommend to anyone, even for the non adventurous.

Mike is a great tour guide. He customizes each excursion to the people in each individual group.
It was exciting and informative and we definitely got way more than we expected.

Enjoyed the company of Mike the tour operator, and his efforts to make the dune buggy ride comfortable. He was prompt and very polite.
The actual tour consists of two stops, one to old Fort Pearce, the other to the Dinosaur tracks.
The information provided was spotty - little info on native birds and vegetation, and the interpretation of the dinosaur tracks was geared toward a creationist viewpoint (marking the age of the dinosaurs at only 3,500 years ago), which is not in line with current scientific thought. We expected to learn a lot more.

This was our first trip in a side-by-side, and first time seeing St. George area historic sites. Mike made it a great experience! He is friendly and knowledgeable. His side-by-side is new. The places he took us were amazing. He really went the extra mile to make our first ride memorable. Thanks, Mike! You rock!

I took a ride in Mike's side by side ATV!
We saw the petroglyphs and the Dinosaur Tracks.
Mike is a excellent driver! You don't need to worry about bad roads and rough areas.
