Did the Dolce Tempo Biking and Hiking trip to Zion and Bryce. Would be hard to find better leaders than we had on the trip, which added great value to the overall experience. Already looking to find another Dolce Tempo trip and highly recommend them.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

This was the trip of a lifetime

From Virginia

My wife and I enjoyed this trip immensely and it was a wonderful way to celebrate our 40th anniversary. It was our first BackRoads trip and the guides (Keaton, Mason, and Kelly) were just superb, energetic, knowledgeable, encouraging and just a big ball of happiness. We really did have the trip of a lifetime! Best regards, Tom & Rhonda
