“Having a private guide for hiking in Sabino Canyon was an excellent choice. Christine was fantastic and chose a hike that suited us perfectly as a retired active couple. We enjoyed getting off the beaten path and soaking in the scenery without worrying about straying from the trail, which wasn't always clear due to the natural terrain. She provided insightful information about our surroundings, making it a pleasure to be guided by a local. Additionally, she was easy to reach during the planning process. We had to postpone our hike by a day because of an unexpected rainy day in February, but it worked out very well for us.”— 610ediec on the Hiking in Ventana Canyon and Sabino Canyon tour
