See the Grand Canyon with a personal touch - The tour was amazing. Our guide, Jason, was very funny and knowledgeable. Air-conditioned transportation and plenty of water. Small group size. Definitely recommend it!

Great trip - JR was just a great guide. What else can I say. He kept us away from the crowds and knew just where to take the best pics. I would highly recommend anyone traveling to the Grand Canyon to book with him

Long Day But Well Worth It! - My husband and I just came back from the Grand Canyon Complete Day Tour from Sedona or Flagstaff. Our Guide was Mark Friedman. We all know the Tour Guide is really what makes the tour successful. Well, look for Mark if you can. He is personable, patient and very knowledgeable about the area. Having lived in the area for many years he supplied us with background history and scientific information on all the places on the itinerary. His warm, personable, humorous personality made the day a success.

Don’t miss this tour! - Sheldon is super fantastic! He shared with us the grandeur of the Grand Canyon, and his passion for the land and history here in Arizona. The lava flow field and pueblo ruins were a wonderful bonus experience, which we would have never discovered on our own!

Grand Canyon in a day. - During our tour, we were lucky to have Sheldon Finkelstein as our guide. He was amazing and took care of us at every stop. After our train ride, we were all ready for lunch. At the Grand Canyon Village, Sheldon made sure that we were all served before he joined us for lunch. He pointed out the best views at every stop along the rim, although there aren't any bad views. Sheldon is highly knowledgeable about the area and its history. We had a great time on the tour with him. I would highly recommend this tour.

Perfect Grand Canyon Day Trip for First Timers - Mark Friedman is the best tour guide! My sister and I took the Grand Canyon day trip to see the Grand Canyon for the first time and were not disappointed. Highly recommend taking this tour. Mark knows everything about the Grand Canyon and Arizona history and his knowledge made this experience so much better than if we had gone ourselves. He had so much to share! So many excellent views, an excellent stop for some Navajo fry bread at Cameron trading post, and even a small walk/hike along the South Rim.
