Welcome to the Zion National Park Tour
“The mountains shall bring peace to the people.” — Psalm 72:3
Note: Between March through late November, Zion’s Scenic Drive is accessible by shuttle bus only. If you buy our tour, you can use it the same way on the shuttle bus as well. Just plug your headphones into your mobile device and listen in on the audio stories.
But in Zion, the mountains don’t whisper peace. They roar it. In stone. In silence. In scale.
Zion isn’t just a park; it’s a cathedral carved by time and water. A sanctuary of light and sandstone, where the canyon walls rise higher than your imagination dares. First, it humbles you. Then it stuns you.
This self-guided audio tour is your storyteller, triggered by GPS, offline-friendly, and built to match the pace of your awe. Just hit the road and let the voices of rock and river speak.
Moments that’ll stop you in your tracks:
The Watchman and the Sentinel, towering over the canyon like ancient guardians
Emerald Pools, fed by waterfalls that shimmer green under the right light—yes, they’re real
Angel’s Landing, a sheer drop and heart-thumping climb that only the bold attempt
The Narrows, a river hike where the walls close in and the echoes go on forever
Weeping Rock, where the canyon quietly weeps, giving life to hanging gardens
Checkerboard Mesa, where nature doodled on a sandstone giant
Along the way, you’ll meet the land’s earliest dwellers, hear about the settlers and scientists who shaped Zion’s story and uncover ancient petroglyphs, tectonic drama, and Mesozoic mysteries. From the Altar of Sacrifice to the Patriarchs, from slot canyons to sky-high temples, Zion earns every name and then some.
Disclaimer: Yes, it’s dry. Yes, it’s hot. And yes, your jaw might get sore from all the dropping. Don’t worry; it’s all part of the Zion experience.
