Canyonlands By Night & Day

About

Canyonlands By Night and Day has been a cornerstone of Moab’s tourism industry since 1963, offering unforgettable adventures that highlight the natural beauty, history, and culture of southeastern Utah. As a family-owned and operated business for over 60 years, we are proud to create “memories that last a lifetime” for visitors from around the world, featuring water, land, and air tours.

Our award-winning tours explore the majestic Colorado River, the iconic formations of Arches National Park, the rugged backcountry of Canyonlands National Park, and the stunning surroundings of Moab. We offer a wide variety of experiences, including scenic jetboat tours, relaxing river cruises, UTV rentals, e-bike explorations, and guided combo tours that allow guests to enjoy the best of both land and water in a single day. Our tours are designed for all ages and adventure levels, and our experienced and knowledgeable staff ensures that every guest feels welcome, safe, and inspired.

We are best known for our famous Sound and Light Show, a unique nighttime boat tour featuring a cowboy-style Dutch oven dinner served family-style at long tables along the Colorado River. After dinner, guests board a flat-bottom boat and cruise upriver while the canyon walls come alive with light and narration, telling the story of the land and its people in a way you won’t find anywhere else in the world.

For travel professionals and group coordinators, we specialize in Bus Group Services, offering custom itineraries, step-on guides, and efficient group check-ins. Our team works closely with group leaders to ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience that meets the needs of each group, whether you're organizing a motorcoach tour, youth group, corporate retreat, or destination wedding.

We are also proud to now offer Catering Services for events both large and small. Our catering team can provide high-quality meals with flexible menus for events at our riverfront property or at your chosen location. Whether you're planning a riverside wedding, business lunch, or group picnic, we bring the same dedication to service and quality that has made us a trusted name in Moab for decades.

At Canyonlands By Night and Day, we believe that adventure, connection, and storytelling are the heart of great travel. From families on vacation to large-scale tour groups, we’re here to help you discover the magic of Moab—by land, by river, and by starlight.
