Grand Canyon Caverns, Route 66 with Electric Vehicle Museums Tour

Overview
The Route 66 Museum is truly unique in that it is a museum of history, housed in a historical building that lighted the way for the earliest Route 66 travelers. The building, built between 1907 & 1911, powered early Kingman and area mines starting in July 1909. It also supplied power for the construction of Hoover Dam, until the Dam began producing cheaper hydroelectric power in the late 1930s.
The Route 66 Electric Vehicle Museum, is the first of its kind anywhere. This Museum includes twenty-nine (and counting) vehicles on loan from the Historic Electric Vehicle Foundation, with members worldwide.
The tour begins with an elevator ride down 21 stories (210 feet) to the Chapel of the Ages cavern, the scene of numerous weddings throughout the years and large enough to hold two football fields. Your guide will tell you about the history of these awesome Caverns. Afterward, we will grab lunch (optional) at one of our area's favorite eateries.

We couldnā€™t have a better Gide, he was excellent and explained the whole time clear and detailed about the story of the caverns. The caverns were awesome, we all had a very good time. My teens loved it.

This was an excellent tour while we were staying in Laughlin. We were picked up and dropped off right at our hotel which was so convenient! Bonnie, our guide for the day was an excellent host, very friendly, told us a lot about the area and pointed our some interesting things along the way to the caverns. After the caverns, on the way back, we stopped for lunch at a great local sandwich shop in Kingman (Sirens). The caverns themselves were amazing and the cool temperature in the caverns felt so good in 110 degrees outside temps! The ride ride to and from with Bonnie was very comfortable and she was very accommodating the entire trip! This is definitely worth the trip! (This was actually the second tour we did with Desert Wonder Tours we did on this trip).

Oh my to say only one thing would be very hard; this tour was awesome. We were picked up at our hotel, our tour guide Bonnie Kidd Smith did a great job for us. She drove us down Route 66, stopped at the Route 66 Museum, which was cool and took lots of pictures of the museum. She then drove us about an hour to the caverns which was really neat. The tour guide, Dino for the caverns was funny and informative (and fast on his feet). He is in good shape to be traversing the walk way, I must say. Got my exercise for day that is for sure, with lots of up and down walking through the caverns. Lots of pictures there too, they are still on my camera otherwise I would share one or two. On our way to our lunch stop, Bonnie made a couple of stops for us to take pictures and a little walk about of some of the old Route 66 buildings. Really cool stops and very appreciative that she made these stops. She then drove us downtown to Sirens CafƩ for our lunch. The staff were very friendly and the food was yummy. All in all my sister and I had a great time on this tour and we highly recommend it if you are in the area.
