Had such a great trip and am already recommending it to family members and friends! My fiance and I decided to take the tour instead of driving to the Grand Canyon ourselves, and are so glad we chose the tour. We got picked up exactly at the time we were told at the place we were told (our hotel) and we were dropped off on time at our hotel as well. The van was very clean and cool. As a plus size woman, I was concerned about the seats, but they were very comfortable. Way better than plane seats!
Our tour guide, Stephen, was very knowledgable, very friendly, and just an overall wonderful tour guide. He stopped throughout the trip and gave us time to stretch and use the restrooms. The Grand Canyon was absolutely beautiful! We explored two areas as a group and then had two hours to explore on our own. I thought it was the perfect amount of time. Would certainly do more tours with Detours!
Due to COVID, there were not many food options at the Grand Canyon, so I would recommend bringing your own food. If that's not possible, you may be better off picking up food at one of the stops along the way, rather than at the Grand Canyon. Although there is plenty of cold water in the van, if you're going during a particularly hot day, I would recommend bringing or picking up gatorade (or a similar hydrating drink) along the way.
Thank you Detours and Stephen for such a wonderful day!
