Knowledgeable Tour Guide - We were a family of five, with a baby. The coach was comfortable and the water and granola bars appreciated. Our tour guide advised us on the best way to do the Grand Canyon ie; eat first. The food was ok. The was amazing and the 3 and a half hours enough to eat, take photos and enjoy the view at Eagle Point and Guana. Our tour guide gave us a lot of information about Vegas, Joshua trees, the Hoover damn and the Grand Canyon.
Thank you Carlito for a fantastic tour

Wonderful day with Miss America! - Amazing views, funny and knowledgeable guide (Miss America!), couldn't possibly have had a better day. We were given tips on how to plan our time at the grand canyon and learned a lot about the Hualapi tribe and the construction of the Hoover Dam. Can't recommend this trip enough!
