Petrified Forest Ultimate Adventure Private Tour in Arizona

Petrified Forest Ultimate Adventure Private Tour in Arizona

Overview

This is one of the most surreal views you will ever see. During this tour, we will discuss the many interesting theories of how the wood came to be petrified, as well as the amazing exposed strata of the painted desert known as the Chinle Formation. We will also go over the rich native history in the area, as we walk amongst the ancient lands

We start our Day in Sedona and travel within Oak Creek Canyon and pass
through Flagstaff driving i-40 (we offer pick up here as well). Before visiting the the park, we will adventure through Walnut Canyon National Monument (another fantastic view to take in!) which is full of some of the best preserved Native cliff dwellings in the southwest. We will explore the dwellings alongside the canyon the same way they did. This includes SEVERAL FLIGHTS OF STAIRS we have to navigate (10 SETS IN TOTAL).

Next on the drive is the town of Holbrook, where Route 66 is still alive and well! This is where we will take lunch at the iconic 50's themed dinners.
