Czego oczekiwać
1
Grand Canyon National Park
Arrive at the spectacular South Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park. Price of park entry is included in the tour. Keep an eye out for elk as we drive 10 minutes through the park to our first stop.
2
Yavapai Point
Start near Yavapai Point for a restroom break, followed by our first views of the Grand Canyon with an introduction to the canyon's features and spectacular geology. From there, we can see the Bright Angel Trail, Phantom Ranch, and the Kaibab Suspension Bridge, along with views of the Colorado River far below.
3
Grand Canyon South Rim
Explore the best of the Grand Canyon's South Rim and Desert View Drive, with stops at key overlooks. During our time at the Grand Canyon, we will discuss the accounts of biblical creation and the global Flood found in the book of Genesis, and how it relates to the features and formation of the canyon's rock layers. We will then talk about the events we believe carved the Grand Canyon—a lot of water, in a little bit of time from massive lake spillover on the Colorado Plateau.
4
Grandview Point
Stop at Grandview Point with distant views of the Colorado River and Tanner Rapid. While there, learn about the Wild West people history of the Grand Canyon, including copper mining and maybe a river trip story or two!
5
Grand Canyon Desert View Watchtower
Stop at Desert View for our lunch break, with food options at the Market and Deli. Featuring hot foods, salads, and sandwiches, along with a small grocery store. You may also opt to bring a lunch with you during the tour, though we may not have room for large coolers on the tour vehicle.
6
Navajo Nation
Descend 3,000 feet from the Kaibab Plateau as we drive down into the lands of the Navajo Nation. With dramatic views of the Little Colorado River Gorge and distant Painted Desert, our journey is filled with stunning scenery and wild west wonderment.
7
Wupatki National Monument
Explore Native American Indian ruins nearly 1,000 years old, surrounded by the high desert grasses and red rocks of this landscape. We will talk about the Ice Age and migration of people groups around the world, including the Sinagua Ancestral Puebloans once referred to as the "Anasazi" that lived in this area. We will see the distant Hopi Mesas where these Ancient Ones (Hisatsinom) moved to. Keep your eyes open, as there's always the possibility of seeing pronghorn antelope, coyotes, or birds of prey in this landscape.
8
Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument
Our drive from Wupatki to Sunset Crater Volcano climbs around 2,000 feet from desert rocks and grasses to tall Ponderosa pines as we explore the otherworldly landscape of the San Francisco Volcanic Field. Our destination is Sunset Crater Volcano, the most recent eruption in the area. Once there, we will embark on a loop trail to get up close and hands-on with the volcanic rocks here, and learn about lava tubes, caves, and spatter cone "hornitos" that surround us. The trail loop is optional, with additional viewpoints or shorter routes for those not wishing to to the walk.
9
Flagstaff
The scenic views continue on our drive back to Flagstaff. With the best views of the San Franciso Peaks all day, the landscape often holds other surprises to see, such as deer, elk, meadows, and fields of wildflowers. We arrive back at the Doubletree Hotel for drop-off typically around 6:00 p.m.

I really love Canyon Ministries and the love they have for others in accommodating families with special needs children. I'm truly thankful for them and recommend them to anyone wanting to visit places with a company that understands. I really appreciate how they picked us up from our hotel and how our tour guide shared his amazing testimony on how he became born again after being an atheist throughout childhood and early adulthood. The trip itself was comfortable and so nice to see the Grand Canyon, Indian ruins and sunset volcano all in one day. It was a truly memorable experience for us and we appreciate our tour guide taking pictures of our family for us at each spot as well. Thank you Canyon Ministries and praise God for such a blessing!

I wanted to love this tour, but I didn’t. It takes a certain energetic personality to be a good tour guide, especially on a full day trip. Our tour guide was a lovely person, but he just did not have the skillset needed to give an engaging, full day tour. The ride there was an excruciating hour and half of what came across as a monotone sermon. Kids were bored and so were at least some of the adults. At the Canyon, I did not feel the creation story was told effectively, and I was disappointed in the way some things were said. The place we stopped for lunch was crowded and we had to wait a long time to get what turned out to be really bad food. At the remaining stops, the tour guide did not give us much, if any, information and background on them. All in all, I think it comes down to what you are looking for in a tour. Perhaps others would feel differently, but I cannot recommend this tour based on my experience.

Greetings! We're sorry this tour did not seem to meet your expectations. Due to the nature of this being a loop tour, it does require about an hour and a half to drive up to the park. While most enjoy that time getting to know their guide, each other, and the landscape, it seems that was not the case for your family. Thank you for your feedback as we strive to address the things we can adjust to make this a top-notch tour for all.
