Meet Megan, a passionate outdoor guide of five years with a love for adventure rooted in her childhood in Orange County, California. Her journey took her from family camping trips through the national parks of the American West to mastering surfing in Hawaii, where she also worked on a close-knit banana farm and embraced the island lifestyle. After five amazing years in Hawaii, Megan relocated to Arizona’s stunning Sonoran Desert, guiding exhilarating UTV tours through the Tonto National Forest and exploring the incredible landscapes of the Southwest. With extensive hiking and backpacking experience across Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Arizona — especially in the Grand Canyon — Megan is eager to share her knowledge and love of the outdoors with you. She looks forward to helping you create unforgettable adventures in some of the most beautiful places the region has to offer.
What's your favorite vacation destination?
Anything with long waves! Hoping South Africa is next.
What's your favorite hike?
Kuli’ou’ou Ridge! It was my little getaway on the island, on the top is a beautiful lookout with a camp spot! I could stay up there for days!
What's your favorite bike ride?
Riding to my favorite surf break at sunrise.
Favorite movie?
Into the Wild is my all-time favorite at the moment but I'm also a huge documentary nerd so it is ever-changing.
Favorite book?
Shantaram by Gregory Roberts
Favorite song?
Oh this is always a hard one! I love live music and jamming out to anything with a nice bass guitar.
When did you catch the travel bug?
When I was little my family would travel with close to 10 other families up and down California. We would create a compound with our campsites and it was our little community. I will forever be grateful to these memories showing me that getting outside with the people you love the most is an important aspect to life.
What do you like to do when you're not guiding?
The list is endless, anything to get my body moving! I'm a huge water gal from surfing to freediving but I can't forget about the mountains and backpacking with my friends. I also get down with a live concert and a cold beer.
