What To Expect

Board your tour vehicle upon pickup from your accommodation in Sedona or the Village of Oak Creek. Your day trip to Grand Canyon National Park begins with a scenic drive up Oak Creek Canyon via a National Scenic Byway. The road winds through pine forests en route to Flagstaff, with the option of hotel pickup there.

Entering the park on the western side of the South Rim, you're treated to sweeping views of the Grand Canyon, Bright Angel fault line, and the Colorado River at Yavapai Point. After a lingering glimpse and plenty of photo ops from the park's widest overlook.

Head to Grand Canyon Village, the Historic District at the South Rim, where you have time to purchase lunch and explore the area including the historic El Tovar Hotel, the Pueblo replica of Hopi House, art exhibits at Kolb Studio, and more. Take a walk along the canyon rim and search for giant California condors that call this area home. 

Your tour vehicle continues eastward along the South Rim, to take in the vastness of the canyon. Find dramatic views from a variety of perspectives both inside and outside the Desert View Watchtower, designed by architect Mary Colter. 

Departing the national park alongside the Little Colorado River Gorge, see more impressive views on a drive through the Navajo Nation en route to the historic Cameron Trading Post, known for its outstanding selection of American Indian arts and crafts. The cliffs of the Painted Desert provide a picturesque backdrop for this scenic stop before drop-off at your hotel in Village of Oak Creek or Sedona.

Best first look!
Denise_A, Apr 2024
Kurt was the best tour guide. He had us not look up until we were right in front of the Grand Canyon. When we did, the view was spectacular and it made the experience amazing. The ride from Sedona was also very scenic and Kurt gave us some great history. He did an amazing job! We loved him!
Beautiful and informative

Best tour and tour guide ever!
Debbie_R, Apr 2024
From start to finish, the experience was first class and highly enjoyable and comfortable. Had excellent communication from the tour company prior to the tour. Andrea, our tour guide, was the best. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly, kept us on a great schedule without ever feeling rushed, although we packed in a lot in one day. Best of all was that it was obvious she loved her work and shared great info. We highly recommend her if you want a 1st class experience! Debbie & Sam
Amazing Grand Canyon Excursion
Carolyn_P, Apr 2024
Can’t say enough about how outstanding this trip was. Kurt was magnificent. He was so knowledgeable and shared so much with us throughout the entire trip. The Cameron Trading Postwhere we stopped for lunch was far beyond my expectations. The food was amazing. The shop was amazing. The people that we traveled with were wonderful. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. Well worth the money. You will be amazed and awed by the experience.
Memorable tour, first class tour guide!
Jane_J, Apr 2024
We had a wonderful tour guide. He talked steadily, told us about the area, history, anecdotes, culture of the people there, stories of growing up there, flora or fauna, excellent guide! We tipped him well, hope everyone else did the same.
Great

Steve Benson tour guide was very informative and professional. Excellent driver we felt very safe. Went through great lengths to keep group together. Well planed stops.
The breath taking views...
Tin_G, Apr 2024
The breath taking views were amazing. We also had every kind of weather sun, rain, snow and hail. Luckily all the rain and hail were when we were driving. Andrea our guide was amazing and extremely knowledge. I left my water bottle in the van and they delivered to the front desk of the resort we were staying at, outstanding customer service. I would recommend this tour, its worth every penny. Thank you Andrea for the best tour ever!!
Bob is the best tour guide
Richard_A, Mar 2024
Our tour guide Bob was excellent and informative about the Grand Canyon and the summer area. Gave us ample time at each stop. I would recommend this tour.
Excellent Commentary Throughout the Trip
Tim_K, Mar 2024
The wealth of area knowledge shared by the tour guide really made the trip more enjoyable. Mike knows a lot about the area--not just the Grand Canyon, but also the areas between Sedona and the GC. The 4-5 GC viewing stops allow just the right amount of variety without becoming repetitive. I have to say that there was some confusion within the tour company drivers as to which guests were being picked up by which vans. Mike had showed up at the initial pick-up location on time, but did not call our names. Only when another van was late and looked into why we were still at the pick-up location 20 minutes later did they realize the confusion. That van driver met up with Mike's van along the route and we transferred.
Incredible trip with Sheldom

You will never have a more informative guide . Al's extensive knowledge was encyclopedic ! He was such a pleasure to be with . I highly recommend asking for him for this once in a lifetime tour.

The day was well planned. I really enjoyed the stop at Wupatki Village, our lunch break, and once we got to the Grand Canyon, we stopped at several different viewing spots. Our guide Brian was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was a great day!

Candice_W, Feb 2024
Our trip to the Grand Canyon with Sheldon was unforgettable. He was an absolute joy to spend the day with. We saw 7 different views of the canyon and left with tons of new knowledge about the area. Sheldon kept our attention and the attention of our almost 6 year old daughter all day! It was an amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone.
What a Sight
Jeff_P, Feb 2024
