Moterra Adventure Experiences in Southern Utah

Explore the wilderness around Southern Utah with our fully planned campervan tours.

We had an EXCELLENT experience with our Moterra for the week across the Utah National Parks! As someone with limited camping experience, I was a bit nervous about what to expect but the campervan was a luxurious experience. The team clearly paid attention to detail when stocking the vans, everything we could think of needing was already provided and plenty of locked storage for our belongings. The 2020 van model was the highest tech driving experience available and the 4 wheel drive gave us the capability of finding remote campsites with fantastic stargazing. Could not recommend this company more highly, you will certainly not regret spending your vacation time with them!

Moterra customer service has been incredible every step of the way! This van was perfect for my husband and I for our 10 year anniversary get away. We explored the St. Anthony Sand Dunes, Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons and Bear Lake. The van had literally everything we could want and then some. Just bring your stuff and hit the road! We even saw another Moterra one day in Yellowstone.

Amazing time touring around The Grand Tetons and Yellowstone! First time using a camper van and Moterra was an excellent choice. The company was hands on and available for all questions and suggestions even prior to getting the van. The van was surprisingly easy to drive and felt safe throughout the trip. The inside was roomy and was more than enough room. The van had so many amenities inside that we didn’t even know we needed! Highly recommend and already planning our next trip!
