Call Of The Canyon Picnic Site
Sedona changed forever in 1923, when filmmaker Zane Grey arrived with a film crew and a dream. Here, Zane shot the silent film Call of the Canyon, a western about a soldier returning from war. He wanted creative freedom he couldn’t get in LA, and was captivated by Sedona’s landscape.
3
Chapel of the Holy Cross
Back in 1931, the Empire State Building finished construction in New York. Uhhh so… what does that have to do with Sedona? Well, local rancher and sculptor Marguerite Staude saw that skyscraper and was so inspired she simply had to create something just as impressive in her home state of Arizona.
4
Village of Oak Creek
Village of Oak Creek, known to locals as “The Village,” this unincorporated community is chock full of shops and restaurants perfect for a post-tour break. The Village also boasts three huge golf courses for those who like to hit the links!
5
Grand Canyon Visitor Center South Rim
You'll arrive first at the Visitor Center, where you can find maps and other park info, as well as restrooms and snacks.
6
Mather Point
Your first overlook will be Mather Point, one of the park's most popular spots. The views here are simply incredible, offering clear line of sight up to 30 miles across the canyon!
7
Yavapai Point
The next viewpoint is Yavapai Point, where you'll get more great views from the canyon's south rim and learn about the tribe for whom the point is named.
8
Hopi House
The first stop within the village is the Hopi House, an incredibly accurate recreation of the ancient Hopi dwellings one might have found here while the tribe still occupied the area. This building is also the perfect place to pick up some handmade souvenirs from your visit!
9
Yavapai Geology Museum
Want to get hands on with the Grand Canyon's geological history? Just stop by the Yavapai Geology Museum for some educational exhibits!
10
Kolb Studio
As you continue on to Kolb Studio, the competitor to Lookouot Studio, you'll hear all about the bitter rivalry between the two which almost drove them both to ruin back in the 1900s.
11
Lookout Studio
Up ahead are two buildings perched on the canyon’s edge. The one you can see right now is Lookout Studio, and you’ll find one just a little beyond it called Kolb Studio.
12
Hermit Road
For the next part of the tour, you'll hop on board the park's free shuttle. Don't worry, your audio tour guide will instruct you on exactly how to do this!
13
Trailview Overlook
The first stop on Hermit Road is Trailview Overlook, which offers views of the famous Bright Angel Trail, the grueling path which leads all the way down to the bottom of the canyon. You'll probably even see some exhausted hikers climbing it!
14
Maricopa Point
Next up is Maricopa Point, which was once the site of a uranium mining operation. Get the unexpected history behind this while you appreciate the gorgeous views.
15
Powell Point
After that is Powell Point, which offers more canyon magic and honors the explorer who risked life and limb to chart the Colorado River.
16
Hopi Point
The shuttle route brings you next to Hopi Point, where you'll learn about bald eagles, their importance to the Hopi tribe, and how to spot them.
17
Mohave Point
If you've been hoping for a great view of the Colorado River, that's up next at Mohave Point. Here, you'll get a bird's eye view of this tremendously powerful river.
18
Monument Creek Vista
Monument Creek Vista, up next, offers a view of the most intense rapids in the park: Granite Rapids. You'll also hear about the first female river guide and how she got her start in the Grand Canyon!
19
Pima Point
The next stop on your right is Pima Point, which sports one of the best views of Colorado. When you’re there, stop and listen. If the vista’s quiet, you can hear the rushing sound of water moving along the river.
20
Hermit's Rest
So where does all this stuff get its name? Well, back in the mining days, one particular miner had no interest in being around other people. He far preferred the rhythms of nature. He spent most of his life living near this spot, content to while away his days with only the rocks and birds and squirrels to keep him company.
21
Pipe Creek Vista
After the shuttle, the tour continues east along Desert View Drive. The first stop along this road is Pipe Creek Vista, a favorite for birders hoping to spot the canyon's rarer specimens, including even the ultra-rare California condor!
22
Grandview Point
After that is Grandview Point, and the view seriously is grand. This is also the trailhead for a hiking trail which leads below the canyon's rim and features some truly remarkable sights.
23
Lipan Point
After that you'll come to Lipan Point, offering another great river view along with some fascinating facts about the park's geology.
24
Navajo Point
The final viewpoint along this drive is Navajo Point, and last certainly isn't least in this case. Navajo Point is actually the highest viewpoint on the entire southern rim, standing at a staggering 7,500 feet above sea level!
25
Grand Canyon Desert View Watchtower
At last, you'll arrive at the iconic Desert View Watchtower, a truly impressive stone structure perched on the canyon's edge. Depending on the season, you can even climb to the top for a view unlike any other. The tour concludes here.

Yaki Point
A popular place for viewing sunrise & sunset, this remote lookout & shuttle stop offers restrooms.
27
South Kaibab Trail
The South Kaibab Trail is a hiking trail in Grand Canyon National Park, located in the U.S. state of Arizona. Unlike the Bright Angel Trail which also begins at the south rim of the Grand Canyon and leads to the Colorado River, the South Kaibab Trail follows a ridge out to Skeleton Point allowing for 360-degree views of the canyon.
28
Tusayan Ruins and Museum
Tusayan Ruins and Museum is a great stop for learning more about ancient cultures. We particularly enjoyed the walk through the ruins with the signage.

The audio tour never synched with the location we were at. We had to call for customer assistance in trying to get it to work. We were disappointed and frustrated.

Rebecca, It’s disappointing that the audio didn’t sync properly. The tour must be started at the set starting point for the audio to trigger automatically. My support team is available to assist with any issues from 5 AM to 5 PM EST. Could you let me know where the problem started? Was the audio working initially? The tour is valid for a year so you can retry it anytime. I’d be happy to help with a replacement or refund. Please reach out—I’d like to help however I can!

Do not waste your money!!! This app did not project onto my car's video screen when connected. It does not work with Android Auto (android phone) or Apple CarPlay (iPhone). We tried it by connecting both my android phone and my husband's iPhone and neither worked. You can hear the app playing through the speakers, but the app will not project on the car's screen. Apparently the app is designed for people with older cars with no screens, where the person actually has to use a phone holder which we do not have. Additionally, the information provided is extremely limited and basic, as if it is designed for a 3rd grader. You can look up better information on your own and plot the different stops along the way. We were so frustrated with this app as it was too late to plan alternatives once we became frustrated with its ineptitude. The fact that you can only get a full refund within 24 hours of purchase is ridiculous.

Hi there, my app doesn’t support Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. However, as mentioned in the listing, it connects to your phone via Bluetooth, USB, or an aux cable. You can also use your phone’s speakers with a holder if needed. My product is valid for a year, so you have plenty of time to use it again. Contact my support team if you’d like a replacement or refund—they’re always happy to help!

I had real trouble understanding how this app works. I bought Sedona to GrandCanyon trip but it came with a bundle with individual trips of its own like GC trip and Sedona strips but not Sedona to GC trip. So, 1) Figuring out was very painful 2) It is also very painful when the offline app stops working in the middle of no where on individual trip and expects to have WIFI available to figure out a return back. But no WIFI on many of there trip endings. So had a very hard time here as well.

Unfortunately, you faced these issues. The bundle includes two individual tours—one for Sedona and one for the Grand Canyon—and it’s mentioned in the listing that it’s a bundle, not a single trip from Sedona to the Grand Canyon. To avoid setup problems, I always recommend downloading and setting up the tours beforehand using a strong network connection. The tours work offline, but closing the app during download or using a low network can cause interruptions. Detailed instructions and a tutorial video are emailed to help with setup. Don’t worry—my tour is valid for a year after booking, so you can try it again anytime.
