Must See
Such an entertaining guide kept the pace moving and full of information.
Interesting salt lake
We had a lovely lady (I’m sorry I can’t remember her name) she was prompt collecting us and very knowledgeable about the wildlife around the lake (like the birds) she was also happy to be asked any questions by us. We learned lots about the lake & surrounding area. Thank you for a great tour
Lovely Excursion- Great communication
A great trip out to the great Salt Lake with Valerie. She helped identify birds along the way and at the Lake and provided info about the lake and the surrounding area. She helped with taking pictures for us solo travelers and had a helpful towel for wiping our feet down after rinsing off. We had time in the lake and a short stop at the visitors center. While we were there the brine flies had just hatched so there were tons of California gulls feasting! Great communication from the tour company warning about a potential cancellation since at first I was the only one booked. They confirmed the tour would go on the morning of which I was really grateful for.
Interesting trip to the lake
Our driver was full of stories, history and made this trip well worth while. He warned us ahead of time how bad the smell would be!
Visiting Salt Lake was great
Valerie was fun and very knowledgeable!
