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.

Perfect day! - It was really perfect! Our guide was incredible and very accommodating! He picked us up at our hotel. He was full of information, and he was so kind (there was a person in our group who walked with a cane and struggled getting in and out of the van). He was patient and helpful. We enjoyed all the stops along the way!
