About Utah Calling
Weaving the lives of pioneers, rebels, and modern dreamers.
Hi there, I'm Isabelle!
I'm a Belgian-born, Utah-based tour guide who loves showing visitors the stories, people and places that make Salt Lake City and Northern Utah unique. Through Utah Calling, I offer private, personalized walking tours in English, Dutch and French, whether you're visiting Salt Lake City for the first time, stopping here on a Utah road trip, or simply want to see the city through a local's eyes.
My private walking tours weave together the lives of indigenous peoples, Mormon pioneers who settled here in 1847, and the waves of immigrants who came to work the railroads and silver mines, each transforming the city in their own way.
During these walking tours you'll see how events like the 2002 Winter Olympics reshaped the city's infrastructure and ambition, leaving a legacy that still pulses through Salt Lake City today.
You'll stand in the places where history happened and understand how Salt Lake City transformed over the years into the vibrant capital of Utah.
