Utah Five National Parks were above my expectations. The two tour leaders went out of their way to accommodate everyone. The five Parks were all different and beautiful.

As first time tour participants, we were happy to experience a well packaged full week itinerary. The expert guides made our trip exciting and fun. Their knowledge and professional manner relieved any pre trip anxiety. Our safety and comfort were the number one priority (along with fun)

Four of us recently traveled to Yellowstone in early September 2024. We were part of a small 10 guest group. Our guides, David Whaylad and Kathy Powell were extraordinary! They both exuded such a love and appreciation for the area that it was infectious. They guided us to areas that larger groups did not have access to and often times, they surprised us with "treats" after our adventure was done. I highly recommend Austin Adventures and look forward to another trip in the near future. Thank you Kathy & David!

Our trip with Austin Adventures was great. I went with my Mom and Dad to Yellowstone. I really loved the guides, they always had fun facts and played games with us kids and told cool stories too. We saw a bear and there was lots of food and drink. The snasket (snack basket) in the vans was magically filled each day with my favourite snacks. I even got a special notebook to keep, with waterproof paper. Soooo cool.

Great itinerary with excellent logistics to maximize number of experiences. Grace and Megan were great while keeping everybody organized and demonstrating local knowledge and experience. Worked hard to meet request of everyone on trip. Whenever we had seen or done fantastic things, they would amaze us again. Added extra experiences such as after dinner wildlife excursion and early final day start to see more of Tetons while still getting everyone to airport as needed to make flights. Good quality and variety of meals and snacks."

"We had a awesome adventure. Our guides Katie and Kevin were excellent, knowledgeable, fun, friendly, and service oriented. We had a very nice group of fellow travelers. The trip exceeded our expectations in so many ways. Beautiful scenery, good accommodations, adequate meals and a comfortable van."

"We spent a week touring Montana/ Yellowstone with Austin Adventures. Everything was well organized, and the itinerary was great! They were so accommodating with our various food allergies and differing athletic abilities, and all three generations of our family had a great time! They had access to specialized excursions we never could have booked on our own, and being able to sit back and relax while they handled all the logistics was such a fantastic feature."

After signing up for a trip with Austin Adventures, 9 months in advance, I was told 3 months before the trip, that the trip was cancelled. They refunded my payment. But, they also advised me to get travel insurance, which I did. When the trip was cancelled, I lost the $700 I paid for travel insurance. When I requested a refund for the travel insurance, they declined and said we don’t require travel insurance. I also lost money on the cancelled airfares. I told Austin Adventures that I lost over $1000 trying to do business with them and by following their recommendations. I asked if they were OK with that. They told me that they have been in business for over 40 years and they were highly rated. Be very careful dealing with this company. Seems suspicious to me that they recommend travel insurance, provide a link to the provider, then cancel your trip and their provider pockets the non-refundable travel insurance. I noticed at least one other review where a potential Austin Adventures customer had a similar experience and lost money. So, this is a systemic flaw in Austin Adventures business practices. I am sure many of their trips are wonderful. But be very careful about investing money in the trip until you are sure it will happen. They may pull the rug out from under you.
