Fantastic

Published on Jan, 2025

We had the best day with Nina. She took us to the perfect places to view the canyon. She was very knowledgeable and shared so much with us about the canyon on our drive. We would do this tour again!

Private Grand Canyon Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

My family did a private Grand Canyon tour and it was an easy going day with added entertainment from Chris. Lots of time spent driving, nothing strenuous. We made about 5-6 stops, some walking. Chris was very informative and kept us laughing, he also provided water and snacks. Lunch was nice and cozy. Gift shops were nice as well. The vehicle was comfortable. Thank you Chris for a lovely day!

Best way to experience the Grand Canyon by far.

Published on Dec, 2024

Chris is an amazing, experienced guide and I cannot recommend him enough. He knew all the great spots to visit, how to manage the Park at an insanely busy time of year and was great company for me and my kideos.

Rocky the Cowboy Poet

Published on Dec, 2024

Rocky was an incredibly informative guide; easy to be with; knowledgeable about not only the Grand Canyon, but also the history of the area (including land ownership, animals, native american history, etc.). He was also very flexible, fun, and communicated equally well with both the parents and our 13 year old twin boys). Would highly recommend. And don't forget to ask about his poetry.

Fabulous first visit to GC

Published on Dec, 2024

What a great day! Chris is a lovely, professional, intelligent and highly informative guide. Also an excellent driver. Very happy we chose to see the canyon this way - easy and learned a lot. Worth the money.
