An AWESOME day! I cannot recommend them more highly, especially Cody, who was our tour and hiking guide for the day. Cody checked in with us regularly to see if we were OK with the diffulty level of the hike. He had tons of interesting facts about the Grand Canyon and its history. The lunch was really tasty, even our vegetarian sandwiches. Cody had plenty of water and snacks, and made sure we were hydrating. He took us to less well-known trails and sites, and was super flexible to meet our needs. BOOK THEM!

My wife and I stayed at Under Canvas and booked a 10 hour day trip with All Star Grand Canyon Tours. This was the best guided tour that either of us ever experienced. Our guide, Cory, was unbelievably knowledgeable about the Grand Canyon and provided us with incredible memories. It was the perfect balance of hiking and sight seeing around the southern rim. We did a 3 mile hike just below the rim, had a beautifully private lunch overlooking the canyon, and then went to a bunch of gorgeous lookout spots where Cory shared history, insights and stories about each part of the canyon we visited. Cory set up a delicious wine and cheese plate for us as we watched the sunset to end a perfect day. This tour is a must and ask for Cory!!

Cody and Molly were fantastic guides. They took us, a group of 4 adults and 4 kids, on a half-day hike and tour above and below the rim of the Grand Canyon. They were both very professional as well as personable and knowledgeable. We booked a half-day hike, but it became clear that we essentially had them for as much of the day as we wanted! Both of them were particularly skilled at keeping our kids (ages 10-13 and with a range of strengths and motivations) all engaged and interested. It was a fantastic day that I know we'll all remember for the rest of our lives, which was exactly the point. Thanks to both of them for helping us make such a powerful collective memory.
