What To Expect
This tour covers a lot of ground in and around Grand Canyon National Park, so its an early morning pickup from your Flagstaff or Sedona hotel to kick off your day of travel via mini-coach.
Wupatki National Monument is your first major stop. As your guide explains, the ancient Native American civilization of Sinagua lived here for 400 years. Then ancient desert dwellers witnessed the dramatic eruption of Sunset Crater Volcano nearly a millennium ago, which destroyed their homes and forced them out. Your tour includes a visit to the lava fields at Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument.
Take a break from touring with a stop for lunch at the historic Cameron Trading Post. The view of the Little Colorado River Gorge from the deck here is especially striking.
After lunch, re-board your mini-coach to head into the Grand Canyon for an afternoon of exploring this magnificent natural wonder. Stop at lookout points along the canyon's East Rim and South Room for dramatic vistas of gorges below. There's time at leisure for exploring on your own at your own pace.
Throughout the entire day, whether you're exploring by foot or on the mini-coach, your expert guide teaches you about the history, archaeology, geology, and flora and fauna of the Grand Canyon and the surrounding area.

Cat was the best tour guide. She was full of information, stories, kind, and funny. This tour took the stress away of driving from Sedona to the Grand Canyon, finding the locations to visit, parking, and locating lunch. They did it all and added a great tour guide along with the package. I would recommend using this tour to visit the Grand Canyon. Wonderful experience.

The extreme change in the weather during our entire trip. Sunshine, rain, snow, fog, hail and the extreme temperature changes.

It was great having someone pick us up from our hotel. The guide was so nice and very knowledgeable!! We learned so much and not having to navigate unfamiliar roads was perfect for my sisters and me. We were taken to the perfect spots to get the best views!

Sheri_S, Apr 2024
Bucket list trip to the Grand Canyon did not disappoint and our tour guide, Rasa, was so knowledgeable and fun! There is a lot of information to cover on this trip and it is a very full day but he stopped to make sure we were comfortable all the way (restroom stops, bus temperature, lunch was delicious, etc). Would highly recommend this tour!
