Our guide (Werner) was exceptional; friendly, knowledgeable, and 100% engaging with our small group of 7. He personalized the experience by sharing his “local” area knowledge.

Very fun and informative. Our guide, Sheila, was full of facts and answered all our questions while showing us the spectacular Grand Canyon. We would recommend this tour to anyone.

Boarding the bus was very quick and easy as our tour guide, Tyler had already opened the door for us and we were quickly seated. Through the ride Tyler was very informative about the forest and the national park itself. Listening about the history of the park truly made me feel immersed in the experience, Would highly recommend.

Sheila did an outstanding job on our tour. Our tour met at a central location which was easy to find. The tour departed on-time. On the tour, our guide Sheila, was fun and knowledgeable. She offered to take pictures and provided cold water. She was clear in her instruction and gave us time to use restrooms, explore shops, take pictures and walk to destinations. I recommend this tour

First time to Arizona and this was the highlight of our trip. The Grand Canyon is breathtaking! The tour was fantastic and I would highly recommend it! Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and just awesome! Not only did we stop multiple times to enjoy the view, we also learned about the history, natural habitats, and the overall environment of the park. The ease of getting around without the hassle of driving and parking was well worth it! Thank you for this amazing experience!
