Ultimate Grand Canyon Private Day Tour

Overview

Hosted by local owner opereror Dynamic Journey Tours.

Starting with Oak Creek Canyon, one of americas most beautiful drives, then next on to the lava flows at Sunset Crater, and the 2800 Pueblos at Wupatki National monument, all while exploring the the ancient landscape the same way the natives had, so that when one arrives to the Grand Canyon they come in with full breath of readiness to experience it (we are the only company that spends time at multiple spots in each park). Before entering the Canyon we stop for lunch at the famous Cameron Trading post, then off to the East entrance, where we explore 4 points of interest to entirely take the day in, finally exiting at the south entrance. We take the the time to walk for an hour along the Rim path at the last destination, in Grand Canyon Village.

What To Expect

Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument

Explore the most recent lava flow in Arizona as well as the unique landscape that is so one of a kind,

Wupatki National Monument

Nestled between the Painted Desert and ponderosa highlands of northern Arizona, Wupatki is a landscape of legacies. Ancient pueblos dot red-rock outcroppings across miles of prairie. Where food and water seem impossible to find, people built pueblos, raised families, farmed, traded, and thrived. Today, if you linger and listen, earth and artifacts whisper their stories to us still.

Cameron Trading Post

A break for lunch. As well as the best place to buy native art and see souviners.

Grand Canyon National Park

A view and experience the entire world has heard about, but taking the trip and seeing for yourself is an entirel new and mind boggling feeling and is difficult to take all in at once. Its an unforgettable time that shows us the immense size and and scale of earth, and ourselves.

We had a great day checking out three monuments and parks. My wife and I had driven ourselves there 25 years ago but I wanted to actually enjoy the ride this time, and have the benefit of a guide who could take us to the best stops. Connor was a wonderful guide. It was a long day but Connor was a fountain of information and kept the conversation and information coming. I’m a sponge for information so I probably asked a million questions but Connor was enthusiastic about archeology and geology and history and just kept answering everything. Even my wife, who hates long car rides, felt like it was worthwhile and she had learned a lot and that we saw a lot more than we had on our previous self-guided trip. The trip is well worth anyone’s time, and I have no doubt that we will consider a guided trip to the petrified forest when we inevitably return in 5 years or so.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a well thought out review. These are long days, we wish AZ wasn't so big sometimes. But it's the only way to see all the sites! I'm glad I made it worth it!

Wow what an amazing adventure we had. Connor was so knowledgeable, kind and knew all the beautiful spots. A trip of a lifetime! We loved the private car, pick up from our Sedona short term rental and learning so much along the way. If you’re on the fence go with this company they will not disappoint!

This was our first trip to the Grand Canyon and we were so pleased to have experienced it with our guide, Connor. His passion and respect for the land and its people was so appreciated! The day was well paced and filled with meaningful conversation! Worth every penny!
