They Take Care Of Nature’s Calls

I’ll keep this one short and sweet. When Jason picked us up, he explained we were good if we needed to use the restroom during our hike. I didn’t realize there would be public restrooms along the way, but I was happy to know there would be. Well, that wasn’t the case at all. Basically, he was prepared to help you find a spot to use the restroom in nature and prepared to carry out anything if he had to. Not something you want to necessarily think about, but good to know he’s prepared, and willing.

They Take Special Events To The Next Level

As you get to know your guide, you’ll start wanting a do-over for some of life’s greatest moments. A proposal or anniversary celebration with the perfect backdrop and celebratory food and drink waiting for you to enjoy during a romantic hike? Yes, please! They’re experienced at making any intimate occasion magical.

They Love The Land

Every guide with Trail Lovers must pick up at least 10 pieces of trash on every guided hike. Not your trash, trash left by others, which they know if left behind, will harm the environment. During 2020, when nobody was booking a guided hike, but folks were loving the outdoors on their own (maybe a little too much), trash became a big issue. Jason and his team created S.O.S., Stewards Of Sedona. They started organizing clean-up days to save the environment they love. The organization continues today. Just when you thought you couldn’t love them any more!

While this experience isn’t inexpensive, the value is there. This is my family’s favorite vacation experience, ever, and I feel like we’ve done some pretty cool things. It wasn’t just one thing, it was everything that combined to make it an absolutely perfect day. It’s something we can’t wait to do again.
