Our driver Matt was a great guide. He explains all things well. Despite I was not interested in geology, I know some rocks and history of the Grand Canyon. Lunch was also nice. The tour didn't involve much walking, so suitable for everyone. We were also lucky to visit the Colb Studio.

Scott was an excellent guide well versed in the geological history of the Grand Canyon. The pacing of the tour was nice with many stops including a picnic lunch stop.

So much history and beauty.

Our tour guide Amelia was great! This tour was worth every dollar. I learned so much and captured a lot of the Canyons beauty. I plan to come back one day.

We had a great time. Ryan and Jason (our tour guides) were really informative and friendly. We were lucky to see elk, mule deer and wild horses as we drove through the Grand Canyon park.

The information on how the Grand Canyon was formed and shaped. The views points we were taken to have incredible scenery. It was eye opening and we gain a much greater appreciation for our National parks.

Great adventure at the Grand Canton

Tour guide did an excellent job ! He went out of his way to make it interesting and informative! All around great tour !

12/10 book this tour and ask for Scott!

Steven_G, May 2021

I cannot brag enough about how excellent Scott was as a guide. There are few things more amusing than listening to someone with a passion speak about it, and Scott’s passion is very clearly the Grand Canyon and Flagstaff. He taught us SO MUCH about the area, everything from Native tribes and Flagstaff history to geology, botany, and astrology. We had more than enough time at each of the viewpoints, and Scott was always happy to take photos for us. He even brought along a telescope and focused it on neat things like the rapids and suspension bridge of the Colorado River below. Lunch was great! Much more than just a simple lunch meat sandwich. Artisan bread with tons of meat on the sandwich with fresh fruit and pasta salad was a huge plus! The bus was brand new and extremely comfortable, and the group was only 7 people as advertised. There were snacks and drinks available at all times. Finally, because of the route Scott drove us, we avoided lines at the entrance to the canyon and got to see completely different scenery on each leg of the journey, which was almost as great as the canyon itself! 12/10! Take this tour and ask for Scott if you can!

Don’t miss this!!!

Day trip to the Grand Canyon

Julie_S, Apr 2021

Matt was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. He was happy to answer any questions that were asked and kept the group on a schedule throughout the day. Lunch was good and filling along with all the snacks you could eat and plenty of fluids to keep the group hydrated. We would recommend your guide company to other vacationers as well.

A Great Day in the Canyon with John

Renita_C, Jan 2021

Grand Canyon Experience

Christopher_T, Oct 2020

Francesca was very knowledgeable, friendly, fun and made the experience so much better than had we done it on our own. This tour helped us learn the ins and outs of the canyon so when we go back we can take hikes on our own in a safe way.

Excellent Day. Our guide was great as she really delved into the history and her authenticity was enhanced by her Native American background. She was very informative and pleasant. Overall , a great day.
