I have been to the canyon before but given we had only one day we took a tour. After researching various options All-star appeared to provide the most for the time we had. Our guide Aaron was excellent. He has been a guide in the canyon for about 20 years. He was a wealth of knowledge. Our tour included a hike into the canyon in the morning and other sightseeing sites in the afternoon. As impossible as it may sound we got a good overview and perspective of the canyon. Aaron’s goal was for us to be tired at the end of the day but still smiling. He was successful. Lunch was provided. Very tasty and served on real dishes! All-star and Aaron were fabulous.

We had the pleasure of having Molly as our tour guide. It was clear she loves her job, loves to answer questions about the Grand Canyon and she was just one of the nicest people we've ever met. There would have been no way we could have figured out how to get to all the places Molly already knew about in one day on our own.

Our family took a trip to Arizona, and because we only had a day allocated to the Grand Canyon, we decided to get a private tour to ensure we maximized our time there with someone who knew the area well. Our guide, Aaron, with All-Star Grand Canyon Tours, picked us up at our hotel at 6:45 am, and he had us situated at the South Rim in time for a perfect viewing of the sunrise over a snow covered Grand Canyon. We had a fabulous day, hiking down into the Canyon, and seeing some amazing views. The company provided spikes for shoes along with poles, and I don't know what we would have done without them. Aaron was a lot of fun to be with for the day, tons of energy, and had so many wonderful pieces of information to share about the Canyon and the area in general, and really made our Christmas vacation special. This tour also included a wonderful lunch at the El Tovar with an amazing view of the Canyon thanks again to Aaron for setting it all up so efficiently. Would highly recommend this company if you are interested in a first-class private tour of the Grand Canyon. Lastly, communication leading up to the tour was excellent, with them keeping us constantly posted due to possible weather changes. Fabulous job!
