Great tour!! Highly Recommend!! - Keaton was an awesome tour guide!! He's very knowledgeable about the area and Grand Canyon. He took us to several locations that we could have never found on our own. We all were very satisfied with this tour. Our group was small (4) but this was ideal. Keaton had extra water and drinks to offer when we ran out. Highly recommend Canyon Dave and Keaton for this tour.

Take this tour and you won’t be disappointed! - Our tour guide, Keaton, was extremely knowledgeable (history major and geology major) and personable. I never write reviews, but feel like he deserves one. The entire trip was enjoyable and laid back, including the lunch. He was prompt picking us up and gave us a full day of stops with breathtaking views. If you take this tour, you will definitely feel like you experienced the Grand Canyon in all its grandeur. Keaton is clearly passionate about his livelihood. We felt like when we said goodbye to Keaton, we were saying goodbye to a friend. Book this tour and you will not be disappointed!

Dave's Canyon Tours are a small very well organised company. Our guide Leo was/is outstanding. - Outstanding tour of the Canyon. Leo, our guide and driver for the day, was a mine of information. We were collected from our hotel in Flagstaff on time, then picked up two others at their hotels, so off we went to the Canyon with Leo telling us more about places we passed on the trip.  She had everything timed to perfection. After lunch, events had to be managed slightly due to the arrival of heavy rain, however, Leo had us covered, so to speak, by providing individual umbrellas. We always felt safe with her at the helm. We would recommend Dave's tours to all.

A Perfect Way to See the South and Eastern Part of the Grand Canyon. - Our guide, Keaton, was amazingly patient, kind and knowledgeable. He had a good answer for every single question my 16-year-old asked. The selection of places to stop for views was excellent, and we were lucky enough to have this trip to ourselves the day we went. It could have been 12 or 14 people.

Outstanding Guide and Tour of the Grand Canyon - Keaton was an outstanding guide combining his knowledge of history, geology and a love for the Canyon. In additional to the information he shared he also brought along additional items, like various rocks, maps and books. It was an outstanding tour and would highly recommend Keaton as your guide.
