ABOUT OUR GUIDES

We provide exceptionally experienced and knowledgeable guides who are devoted to your group for the duration of your escorted tour.   Also acting as the tour "Director", they will accommodate you and your interests in every way possible.  Some of our guides have been providing tours to this area for over twenty years.  David Menne, the owner of our company, has lived and toured the Western United States for over 45 years.

The headlines of "The Arizona Republic" on Saturday, May 26, 2007 reads: "To really see Arizona, let a guide lead".  In the article, the Republic recommends that you maximize your travel investment by hiring a guide.  No matter where you travel in the Western United States, "there is a guide with the knowledge, skills and passion to show you the way."

We have guides available who specialize in particular areas of interest such as photography, ecology, anthropology, archaeology, geology, Native Americans, and backpacking wilderness adventures.  We also have foreign language guide interpreters available. 

PHOTOGRAPHY TOURS

Custom photography oriented tours are available for all our west USA site locations.   We have professional photographers available for our custom photo tours who have been shooting the western USA for many years.  They know all the most scenic locations and the best times of day to be in each location.  For more tour information, go to Photography Tours and Wildflower Tours
