Come explore some of Southern Utah's most unique slot canyons! This tour begins with a thrilling ride in a customized off-road machine leading to a slot canyon, which is privately accessed and far from any paved roads. Once at the canyon's mouth, the hike begins. The red canyon walls stretch over 100 -feet high on either side, with a gap of only 6-10 feet between the walls to hike through. Led by a guide and local expert, the tour continues on foot through the canyon while learning about Native American history and geographical information. This tour is specific for groups that do not desire to climb, and when the canyon gets too difficult the group will hike back to the UTV and travel to a separate slot canyon and explore the bottom section of it as well.

10 stars for theRR slot canyon tour!
This Slot Canyon tour was on of the highlights of our Utah adventures. John our guide was so amazing. His knowledge and passion for the area was awesome. he is so in touch with the land and through this he sparks at the same passion within you. We were there shortly after a major flood event and the landscape had changed dramatically. John showed us and explained how things had changed and we could see and feel what he was talking about. We felt like we were on a ride with an old friend. I highly recommend this tour, you will walk away with a new appreciation for how the earth is constantly changing. We had our 6 yo with us and he was so engaging with her as well. This was just an unbelievable tour. Take the tour and request John he is amazing.

Slot Canyon Beauty
The ride out and back from the slot canyon was as much fun as the slot canyon were beautiful! The tour guides were experienced and very informative. I definitely recommend this tour!

Fantastic experience! Would definitely do it again.
It was a great experience visiting the slot canyons! The inside of these canyons is incredibly beautiful and worth the trip here. Our guide was fantastic and knowledgeable with our group of three. The one recommendation to people who want to experience the natural beauty of these canyons that I would make, is to wear shoes that you have no problem getting your feet wet while wearing them. I didn't and it was still worth it to see these canyons.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed exploring the beautiful slot canyons and that your guide made the adventure special for your group. We appreciate the helpful tip about wearing shoes that can get wet it's great advice for future guests! Thank you for choosing East Zion Adventures, and we hope to see you again for another adventure! Julie

Getting to Crimson and Elkheart cliffs
This tour to the Red Rock Slot Canyon was meet, greet, get strapped into the UTV as a passenger and head out to 2 Canyons named Crimson and Elkheart cliffs which are beautiful. The guides Mark and Nick insured a safety ride and are extremely knowledgeable about the area and off road driving. The tour took no more than 2 hours, start to finish. If you are interested in getting there and back, then this is your transportation there and expect no more than that - Crimson and Elkheart cliffs are amazing places to go visit and there are many ways to experience it other than just taking this tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Mark and Nick will be happy to hear you appreciated their knowledge, off road driving, and attention to safety. We also appreciate your perspective on the tour and what guests can expect from the experience. Our goal is to provide a fun and safe way to access these beautiful areas while sharing some of what makes them special. We hope you enjoyed your time exploring the canyons and will come back to experience more of what the area has to offer!

Red Rock Slot Canyon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Zion National Park.
How much does Red Rock Slot Canyon cost?
+
Prices start at $129 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Zion National Park usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Red Rock Slot Canyon take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Zion National Park is not rushed.
Is Red Rock Slot Canyon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 418 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Zion National Park, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Red Rock Slot Canyon?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Red Rock Slot Canyon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Red Rock Slot Canyon?
+
Around 146 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Zion National Park can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Zion National Park and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Red Rock Slot Canyon start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Zion National Park within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Zion National Park?
+
Zion trips centre on the Narrows and Angels Landing, canyoneering in slot canyons, e-bike rides along the scenic drive and Bryce Canyon combination days. Permit handling and gear rental inclusions are the biggest quality differences here. On Outty we rank every Zion National Park experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Award Winning UTV Slot Canyon Tour, East Zion 4 Hour Slot Canyon Canyoneering UTV Tour, Peekaboo Slot Canyon UTV and Hiking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Zion National Park?
+
April to May and September to October. Summer means early starts. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Zion National Park?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Red Rock Slot Canyon?
+
Included: Customized UTV. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Red Rock Slot Canyon?
+
Meet in the coffee shop attached to the Sinclair Gas Station Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Red Rock Slot Canyon offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Red Rock Slot Canyon?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Red Rock Slot Canyon wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Red Rock Slot Canyon if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
What do travelers say about Red Rock Slot Canyon?
+
Across 418 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, knowledge and storytelling. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
