Great Tour of Grand Canyon and Surrounding Area!! - We had a great day with Rasa on our tour of the Grand Canyon. He picked us up in Sedona. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. Throughout the tour, he provided valuable information, stories and facts. At each stop, we had plenty of time to see the spectacular sights, take photographs, shop, and use the facilities. Lunch was delicious at Cameron Trading Post. On the way back, he pointed out good places for dinner in Sedona. Everyone on our tour seemed to enjoy it, even the kids.

The Grand Canyon is one of the 7 wonders of the world for a reason.... - We were a family of 6 adults and all 6 of us rate our private Grand Canyon tour as the best experience of our very fun filled Arizona trip. Our guide Stevee was incredibly knowledgeable, accommodating, and so much fun. He was able to keep us on time to maximize what we could see without ever making us feel rushed. Stevee just seemed to know when to step back and let us quietly take in the indescribable experience of the Grand Canyon and when to join in with information or suggestions. He was always there when we needed him, but never intrusive, and he was friendly and helpful not only to our family, but also to other visitors around us. He also took photos of us throughout our day so we have those memories well documented. The Grand Canyon is absolutely something you need to experience for yourself. No picture can do it justice and no one can describe it to you. It definitely gives you a new perspective. I am so glad we decided to book the private tour. There is no way we would have managed to do and see so much if we had tried to do this on our own (Bonus: the private tour also takes you to 2 other National Monuments on your way). This was a very special experience for our family. Seriously, just make room in your budget for this. It is absolutely worth it.

Amazing Experience - Epic experience. The views were amazing. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. We made a few scenic stops on the way, and my crew was the best. I was a solo traveler, however felt like I was with a group of friends I've known my whole life.

Make this your #1 excursion! - Brad our tour guide was awesome. He is a walking fountain of knowledge on everything from volcanoes, to Native American history, to all the stops on the tour. The Grand Canyon is jaw dropping, no words can describe how amazing it is. Definitely try to get Brad as your driver!

Disappointed in our tour - It was a huge disappointment. Our tour guide talked much more about Hollywood stars and movies than he did about the flora and fauna and geology of the Grand Canyon. We even stopped to listen to another guide to learn something about our stop. For almost $900, this was a big mistake on our part for choosing this tour group.
