Our guide Jonathan was fun and knowledgeable. This tour was a great way to get oriented to Grand Canyon.

Molly was our guide, she was fantastic. She really made our day. She shared so many sights and knowledge about the canyon. Sunset was the highlight. We took the tour in late February. It was extremely windy, and cold, but thankfully sunny so we could see everything for most of the day. The views became a bit hazy later in the afternoon because the wind kicked up and dust clouded the canyon slightly. Luckily we missed the snow (it snowed the next day). Highly recommend.
