Wonderful experience getting to see all of zion from the helicopter. The Pilot, Kevin, had great energy and information along the trip!

Off-road jeep tours to ghost towns and scenic overlooks with expert local guides
Zion Rivers Edge Adventures specializes in off-road jeep tours that reveal the hidden history and dramatic landscapes surrounding Zion National Park. Their signature ghost town tours take visitors deep into Utah's mining past, exploring abandoned settlements while guides share stories of the pioneers and prospectors who once called these remote places home. The tours combine rugged adventure with educational insights, making them particularly popular with families looking for something beyond the typical park experience.
The company's knowledgeable guides bring the region to life with their expertise in local geology, history, and wildlife. Tours venture along backcountry roads to reach spectacular viewpoints overlooking Zion's iconic red rock formations, offering photo opportunities away from the crowded park overlooks. Kids especially enjoy the treasure-hunting aspect of the ghost town visits, searching for artifacts and "jewels" that connect them to the area's colorful past.
Beyond their jeep tours, Zion Rivers Edge also offers river float trips, providing a refreshing way to experience the Virgin River on hot summer days. These gentler adventures complement their off-road offerings, giving visitors multiple ways to explore the diverse landscapes around Virgin, Utah.
Located in Virgin, just minutes from Zion's western entrance, the company serves as an ideal starting point for travelers wanting to explore beyond the main canyon. Their tours reveal the broader context of the Zion region, from its geological forces to its human history, adding depth to any southern Utah adventure.

We had an hour helicopter tour with kevin, he was so knowledgeable and experienced, felt completely safe with him. He showed us the most beautiful areas of Zion Park that you can only appreciate from the air. National Geographic eat your heart out! All the staff were fantastic, would highly recommend this company to everyone!

Our tour with Chris was an absolute blast! He’s not only incredibly knowledgeable but also genuinely the sweetest. He shared so much about the surrounding areas, rock formations, volcanoes, and the petroglyphs. The ride up the narrow road could have been intimidating, but my husband and I felt completely safe with Chris. We can’t recommend Rivers Edge and Chris enough for all your Zion adventures!

We loved our off road ghost town and Zion views adventure!! Tyson was so great and my grandkids just loved him! Tyson was patient and made them feel like they were so special. He answered their questions and helped them find "jewels". We would do this again for sure!!
