This was a very nice trip...wll organized, driver/tour guide shared lots of interesting information about the area. The bus/van could have been more comfortable, but I would certainly take another tour!

Outstanding!! Worth every penny and the only way to go particularly if you only have one day.

Review by: Mark L	August 2011
Superb trip with a superb guide, Joe, who was so knowledgeable on EVERYTHING!! Given where we were going this made all the difference. What he didn't know about the Grand Canyon wasn't worth knowing.

Wish there were more stars, this was the absolute best, we had three other couples on our van and the guide was amazing....in spite of cool weather, fog and some showers it was fantastic...although lunch at El Tovar was horrible and the worse service I have had in my entire life, we had wine with lunch which was not included and it took 45 minutes for our waiter to bring check after it was requested....the food wasn't very good either , but our tour guide and fellow travelers made this the best tour EVER - I would do this tour again at twice the cost

perfect from beginning to end - highly recommend!!

The tour was done in a comfortable mini van. The driver was very knowledgeable and took us to a few places off the beaten path. I would recommend them.

Review by: CandiceLee	June 2011
This is my first time to Grand Canyon. And the first one is to take a helicopter ride on the helicopter. The lunch at El Tovar did not meet my high expectation. But the round trip along the Oak Creek Canyon on route 89A certainly is another hightlight. The tour guide, Chad, was very knowledgeable and fun. I had a wonderful trip with the local operator company. I would recommend to my friends.

Chad was an excellent guide. enjoyed the grand canyon tour very much

Review by: Joseph D	May 2011
The tour was just awesome. We had a great tour guide, Chad, who really knew his stuff and very entertaining too. He picked us up at our hotel. It's an all-day tour and very worth doing. Plenty of scenic stops (ah, the beauty!) and potty breaks were built in to the schedule. Our lunch at the El Tovar was excellent . At the G.C. some of us went to the iMax show and others opted for the helicopter ride. (it's an additional cost for the ride.)_br/_ We had adequate time for shopping too. While out on the open road Chad knew some road games that were fun and helped us get to know the other people. Highly recommended. I'd do this tour again.

We had a great tour, the Larry's narrative with the sights and the Canyon itself couldn't be beat.

Review by: Brian D	April 2011
An excellent trip which was made even more enjoyable by the driver. He brought alive the wildlife and the stories around the canyon. He was very clear and informative. The food was good and scenery magnificent. Times were as stated. Thank you all. An enjoyable experience.

Review by: James R S	April 2011
Great tour guide. He made sure we were able to see as much as possible on a one day trip to Grand Canyon. We enjoyed the trip even though it was very cold.

Review by: Paul M	March 2011
Excellent time. Larry did a great job commenting on all the areas of interest. Not only, were we well informed about the area, we were overwhelmed with the beauty of the canyon. We would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Review by: Lucille G	March 2011
They were right on with all the timing. It was beautiful and educational. The guides were very accommodating.

Review by: Bel	January 2011
The tour was a great value for the price. It was a awesome experience. The tour guide was great. He kept the trip interesting and fun! Would definitely recommend this tour to friends.

Review by: EDWARD J J	October 2010
It was a wonderful way to travel to Las Vegas. Other than a passenger who was very late returning from the rest stop (not the Company's fault), the trip was fine. The hostess was very nice. Getting from the hotel in L.A. to the Main terminal in Anaheim was a long and boring trip, because we were the first passengers picked up that morning. Despite that, I was very satisfied.

Al , our guide was great. Very busy, informative tour.

Enjoyed the trip and our host.

Review by: Lori C, United States of America	March 2010
Our tour guide was outstanding. He was very knowledgable we would do it again thank you so very much.

Review by: Anonymous, Canada	March 2010
Wonderful but cold. Bus driver drove a little erratically in Oak Creek Canyon as he was late and trying to get the people to the train so they wouldn't miss it. Once they were on their way, the rest of the day was fabulous. Driver had good sense of humor and knowledge of history of the area.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	November 2009
We found everything from the on time pickup to the van ride, the train ride, and the tour of canyon highlights to be fun. It was a long day but very worth it.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	April 2009
The timing was great and the driver ensured we were where we were supposed to be when we needed to be there. He was very clear about times and directions. Thanks.

It is awesome! Plenty of time to walk around and enjoy it all. The optional helicopter flight is really worth doing.

The company you contracted with was absolutely wonderful. They are efficient and very customer oriented. Our driver was a Native American who knew so much about the area and the people who lived there that the trip really came alive for us. It was so far superior to the trip we had taken on the railroad that it was as though we had never visited the Canyon before.

Review by: Anthony S, United States of America	July 2008
The trip was excellent. The bang for your buck was well worth it. The tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. The Grand Canyon is amazing, and this was a great way to see some parts of it. I would definitely recommend this particular bus tour to anyone.

Review by: Douglas S, United States of America	May 2008
The entire trip was very enjoyable, even the bus ride, as our guide was a very good tour guide and historian. His consideration of all tourists' needs was much appreciated. The food at the buffet was excellent, the IMAX was well worth the cost, and, of course, the scenery is fantastic!

Our driver was great and he had lots of info about the area. We had a picture-perfect day to see the Grand Canyon. Ride home was done nicely by showing an old movie with Sedona as it was many years ago (when we should have bought land).

Review by: Brenda D, United States of America	March 2008
Both my husband and myself loved the trip. Our guide was excellent. We both feel that we enjoyed the Grand Canyon much more on your tour than we would have on our own.

Our tour guide was a jewel. The trip was a pleasure from start to finish. A truly great experience.

Review by: Jerry M, United States of America	September 2007
The pickup was right on time. The tour guide was one of the most knowledgeable guides that we have had. Our tour guide made the whole trip. He know about plants, wildlife, Indian history, and area myths. He made the trip worthwhile. And of course the Grand Canyon speaks for itself. You cannot put the beauty into words.

Review by: Dan M, United States of America	April 2007
The driver of the tour van was very good and added a lot to the tour. We drove from Sedona to Williams, AZ and then took the train to Grand Canyon National Park. The train trip was definitely not worth either the time nor the money. The stops on the Navajo Reservation on the way back to Sedona were fantastic. All in all, it was a pretty good tour.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	April 2007
Wish we would have spent more time at the Grand Canyon vs. the stops on the way back. Also, the air conditioning on the bus wasn't working it was very uncomfortable. However, overall worthwhile experience and I would do it again.
