Grand Canyon South Rim Tour with Lunch

Overview

Unleash your inner explorer with veteran local Eric Albanese. Immerse yourself in the Grand Canyon's majestic beauty, rich history, and fascinating geology.

Relax in luxury with Wi-Fi, snacks, and hot or cold drinks as I explain in great detail what I've learned during the ten years of living here.

Get up close to the canyon's stunning views with my high-powered binoculars.

Embark on a scenic 40-mile tour along Desert View Drive, tracing the rim of the canyon.

Marvel at the Colorado River and the Paleozoic to Pre-Cambrian Era of geological record, Unkar Delta, and Hance Rapids. I'll take you to my favorite viewpoints for breathtaking panoramas.

Learn the Canyon's secrets from me, as I bring the story of this natural wonder to life, revealing how millions of years of erosion sculpted this awe-inspiring masterpiece.

Lunch at either Canyon Village Deli (inside the park), Foodie Club or We Cook Pizza And Pasta (outside the park).

Grandeur from a locals perspective.

Eric was extremely knowledgable about the geology, flora, history and fauna of Grand Canyon's South Rim. He was patient and accommodating - for example he had hand warmers, blankets, binoculars, snacks, hot chocolate etc. He was especially good with us as seniors, aware of our limitations. We would definitely take another tour with Grand Canyon South Rim Tour with Lunch.
