Well worth the time and money. - We were picked up at our hotel promptly by our guide, Sheldon, who was one of the best tour guides we've had on the many tours we've taken, both in the states and abroad. He drove us to Williams AZ, where we boarded the train for a one-way trip to the Grand Canyon. From there, Sheldon took us to many great overlooks and showed us some off the beaten path views, which were great. He was a wealth of knowledge and spent upwards of 12 hours making sure no one felt rushed. This tour and tour guide are highly recommended.

Grand Canyon here we come! - What a fantastic trip! First time at the Grand Canyon. But the thing that made our trip memorable and perfect in every way was our guide - Sheldon Finklestein with Great Venture tours. He is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. He was so attentive throughout. Thank you Sheldon for helping create a lifelong memory.

I would do it again - We had a great time, a varied excursion and the lunch alternative was also very good. We would have preferred to spend a little more time in the Grand Canyon area, although we made 3 stops in 3 different places. We were confirmed several days before the tour, we were picked up on time, the guide very knowledgeable about the history and very responsible on the road.
