What are people saying about Scottsdale

Patty_L, Nov 2026

A must do food tour 🍴

Our tour guide Christopher did an incredible job! It was not just about eating, he shared so much more knowledge that he had about food and buildings and history as we walked from restaurant to restaurant. He was easy to understand, answered any questions and I highly recommend him as a tour guide and this tour! I would also try to do it earlier in your trip so you can learn about more places you should visit or eat at 💯

Grand Canyon and Sedona Day Adventure from Scottsdale or Phoenix

Barbara_M, Oct 2026

Great Day at the Grand Canyon and Sedona

We enjoyed not having to drive ourselves. Cody, our guide took us to the best places for picture taking views. Our weather was perfect and the experience was well worth the price! If you get bored in long rides, bring ear buds and listen to your own music, etc. You are provided with lunch on the go which gave us extra time at each site. Wraps, chips, in that nature. Cody was great at keeping our group on track of time. We did sneak into other groups where the tour guide gave history of the grand canyon and the rest of the time we were on our own. Which was fine. Cody gave us great informative things while in the van. Definitely would recommend this tour to our family and friends.

Scottsdale Titanic: An Immersive Voyage Entry Ticket

Sharon_G, Oct 2026

Experience the era and living history of the fate of the Titanic!

A fascinating historical account of a part of our history! Beautifully and artfully presented, making the visitor part of the experience. Well documented biographies of passengers aboard the Titanic, and the boarding pass a clever way to feel involved and interested in who the individuals were and why they were aboard. So impressive how detailed the history of the original conception of the ship, the massive numbers of people involved was researched. Every detail from the internal workings, how the ship was powered to the finest details of luxury of the era left me wanting more information of the history of the survivors and the impact the entire event made on future sea travel.

Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend Day Adventure from Scottsdale or Phoenix

Cindy_B, Sept 2026

Life changing experience!

It’s a very long travel day. But worth every minute of the drive. The canyon is breathtaking and so is horseshoe bend. It’s a very physically demanding hike, with longs stretches of walking in the sun at horseshoe bend. Antelope Canyon has lots of narrow passages and stairways to navigate, but well worth the journey. The Navajo guides are amazing and take the most beautiful photos.

Sedona, AZ…awesomeness waiting to happen!
