I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of White Pocket and South Coyote Butte. Both places are incredible in their own right. Jeff went out of his way to show us some really cool stuff that we would never have seen on our own. He has an incredible knowledge of the area which he shared freely. As a person with 16 years of experience as a professional raft guide, I can’t recommend American West Scenic Adventures highly enough.

Experience the Out-of-this-World Wonders of White Pocket
Discover why the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument is a favorite for all our guides and you’ll leave this tour wondering just how nature crafted such a unique place. Spectacular vistas created by the heady mix of a few lone trees, a bursting colorful palette, and a variety of sandstone formations await photographers and sightseers alike on our epic White Pocket tours. After grabbing a coffee together, we’ll set out down Highway 89A on a winding, scenic journey to remember through the Kaibab National Forest. The views change dramatically on the drop out of the forest and down into Marble Canyon – it’s a moment sure to take your breath away.

Important Info
The Drive: We start in our comfortable vehicle with 50 miles of paved highway, taking approximately 1 hour. Then we switch it up, taking approximately 45 minutes in the fun Can-Am over 25 miles off-road. The tour takes a total 4-5 hours of driving, and the drive is one of the great elements of the adventure. We'll pick up some coffee together, and set out down Highway 89A on a winding, scenic journey through the Kaibab National Forest.
We always have to keep an eye on the weather before any hike due to potential flash flooding. However, we do offer a refund on deposits if weather is a factor.
Be aware that the ride might get a bit rough - especially after a storm.
Don’t Just Take Our Word For It….
Amazing tour of White Pocket. Can’t recommend Jeff highly enough. He was kind, intuitive, and interesting and took excellent care of us. I know he wasn’t responsible for the incredible day we had but he did his part to make it a wonderful experience. Jeff pointed out tons of great photo ops and took more pictures of us than we have from the rest of our road trip. He has a wealth of local knowledge, insight into the geology of the area and is an amazingly interesting and well rounded individual. We couldn’t have asked for a better day, tour and guide. Highly recommended!
Jeff took us out to White Pocket and the Great Chambers. Very knowledgeable about the area and was able to show us a lot of cool things! He also gave us photo tips and was willing to help us out with pictures
We had THE best time visiting White Pocket with Jeff. He is an amazing tourguide who takes good care of his guests and knows a lot about the area and wildlife too. I 100% recommend booking a tour with him.Thank you Jeff of taking us to the one of the most beautiful places on earth. When we’re back in the area, we’ll sure give you a call to go on another adventure.
