MEET OUR FAMILY
Hi there, and a huge welcome to Kanab Tour Company!
We’re Tiffany and Cory Unsworth, and we’ve been proudly running Kanab Tour Company since 2014 when we decided to uproot and move to Kanab – a place that’s very close to our hearts.
We packed up our family (including our 5 beautiful kids!) and embarked on our new adventure. We didn’t waste any time settling in and developing our day tours which are designed to showcase the very best of the Kanab area through a range of fun, customizable and adventurous activities, suitable for everyone!
It makes us so happy to spend our days sharing ATV adventures and stunning National Park hikes with our guests who join us from all over the world. We never tire of hearing about how much fun our guests had or about how much local knowledge they gathered from our guides; it’s what drives us to keep growing as a team and to provide the best day tours, right here in our home, Kanab.
Our guides are Wilderness First Responder Certified (WFR). WFR is comprehensive medical training specific to the outdoors. This means we take your safety SERIOUSLY.
MEET THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE BEHIND
KANAB TOUR COMPANY
Cory and Tiffany Unsworth are the husband-and-wife owners of Kanab Tour Company, which they founded in 2014 after relocating their family to Kanab—a place that quickly became home and continues to inspire everything they do. Together, they’ve built a company rooted in connection, adventure, and a genuine love for sharing southern Utah’s landscapes.

Cory is especially drawn to full-day custom adventures that allow guests to explore at their own pace and experience the desert in a deeper, more personal way, while Tiffany thrives on tours filled with laughter, encouragement, and shared accomplishment.
Outside of the day-to-day operations, Cory and Tiffany are busy raising their five kids and soaking up time together as a family. Cory enjoys wildlife watching and is well-known for his dad jokes, while Tiffany loves planning trips, staying active, and helping guests feel comfortable every step of the way. Together, they believe the best tours start with strangers and end with friends, and they hope every guest leaves with a sense of confidence, unforgettable memories, and a deeper appreciation for both the land and the people who call Kanab home.

A true do-whatever-it-takes team member, Ashlee keeps the office running smoothly and isn’t afraid to leave her desk to jump in and help on ATV and canyoneering tours when needed. We’re still not quite sure what Ashlee can’t do.
