Grand Canyon Explorer: Day Trip with Ruins from Sedona or Flagstaff

Our most diverse Grand Canyon tour, the Explorer, blends remarkable ancient ruins of the ancient Sinaguas, and dramatic lava fields from the explosive activity in the region 6 million years ago.

In the morning you will experience Wupatki and Sunset Crater Volcano National Monuments. Time for souvenir shopping at the historic Cameron Trading Post, you will then travel up to Grand Canyon National Park. You will start with amazing views beginning at the Desert Watchtower.

I loved visiting the sites, especially the pueblo ruins, while someone else did the driving. Our guide, Sheldon, was very informative about sites visited. He made sure we were comfortable in the van and supplied water. We tried Navajo food at lunch, but there were other options as well. We took the east entrance to the Grand Canyon, the road less traveled.

The ability to do several sites and learn more about the area as we traveled. From Navajo ruins to volcanic ash to the Canyon itself....it was enjoyable and amazing. Our driver, Ed was knowledgeable and congenial and helped the group to enjoy themselves throughout the day.

A wonderful tour! I would highly recommend the tour but with a different van and driver. The van was too small with no leg room. It was very uncomfortable. The driver was driving wrecklessly. We recorded him driving over 85 MPH. He would hit bumps and people would literally bounce out of their seats. He was friendly and shared good knowledge but his driving was scary.

Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for touring with us to the beautiful locations on your tour. Additionally, we were happy that we were able to facilitate a tour that accommodated your dietary restrictions. We rarely get a complaint on the comfort of our vans, quite the opposite in fact. We have spoken with our guide and reminded him of our safety-first policy.
