The van arrived at the appointed time to our resort. Our guide, Eric, did a wonderful job of pointing out interesting sights and vegetation along the way which helped keep the ride interesting. He explained the changes in land forms and climate as well, which we found fascinating. There were ample pit stops along the way to allow us to stretch and use the restrooms. Eric’s knowledge of the Native American cultures and languages was impressive, and he peppered in an appropriate amount of humor to keep us all entertained. Of course, the Grand Canyon did not disappoint, with it’s grandeur and spectacle, and we stopped at several viewpoints to gain the best possible vistas. Along the way back, Eric played relaxing music at a low volume and many of us napped a bit, which was welcome. The trip through Oak Creek Canyon into Sedona was replete with ample photo ops and afforded us a relaxing change of scenery. I felt as though the Sedona part could have been a bit longer. It was a spectacular area, with lots of shopping and dining places. The final leg back to Phoenix was marred by heavier traffic but not to the point of distraction. We were dropped off at our resort after some cheerful banter with Eric all to ourselves, as we were the last drop off . What a grand trip it was!! Worth every penny of the ticket price!!

Thank you for taking the time to review this tour. We are gratified that you enjoyed it so much. Eric is indeed very knowledgeable and a wonderful tour guide. We wish we could spend more time in Sedona, but that would take away some views of the Grand Canyon. Maybe you can join our Sedona, Jerome and Montezuma Castle tour the next time you visit. This tour concentrates on Sedona, with plenty of time to take pictures, shop, have lunch and tour Sedona.
