a history lesson in a beautiful setting - what a wonderful experience! Brian B was our guide and he was like a walking encyclopedia. He had so much information regarding the Canyon, the surrounding area, the Navajo, and he made the day go so fast. I highly recommend the tour and Brian for a guide.

Indescribable! Photos don't do it justice! - Wow - where to start?! I've wanted to see the Grand Canyon since I was a kid in the 70s and The Brady Bunch drove their wood-paneled station wagon out to Arizona. And last week, I finally made it happen! My son and I booked a South Rim tour with Angel's Gate Tours and had an absolutely phenomenal time. Our guide - Rasa - was a walking encyclopedia of Grand Canyon knowledge - he knew the history, the culture, the geology, plants and animals, etc. In addition he was a great conversationalist with a cute sense of humor. The whole day was packed full. But be prepared - seeing the Grand Canyon for the first time is an emotional experience. I shed some tears because I was so overwhelmed by its majesty and splendor (...that may sounds corny, but it's true). It was a beautiful and perfect day, which I will always remember. Thank you, Rasa!

Unforgettable experience! - Visiting the Grand Canyon South Rim was an absolutely unforgettable experience! The breathtaking views were everything I imagined and more. Our tour guide, Cat, was phenomenal—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of great stories about the canyon’s history and geology. She made the experience even more special with her enthusiasm and attention to detail. From the moment we arrived, everything was well-organized, and Cat ensured we saw the best viewpoints and learned fascinating facts along the way. Her passion for the Grand Canyon and the surrounding community was truly infectious. I can’t recommend this tour enough! If you’re planning a visit, ask for Cat—you won’t regret it.
