Do This Tour - First!!

We'd been in Sedona before a couple of years earlier. So, we checked withe the hotel, and decided to do this tour. It started out as a cold day; snow on the ground, and most of the roads early in the day--tho they quickly melted dry in the off & on half-sunny half-cloudy day. We had a marvelous time with the others on the ride; strangers become friends, y'know . . . at least for a day! Eh? We got to see ALL the local sites/sights we wanted to, & the driver-guide was spectacular with his knowledge and sweet personality. This was an amazing day. Afterwards there was even time for us to drive back to our favorite two locations once again on our own, without needing to get back to the tour group. Finished off by a great dinner in town.

Crowded but beautiful

Chris B was AWESKME! Ken’s Tours has a great set up for food, restrooms, shopping and comfort while waiting. The scenery is incredible! The biggest negative is so crowded! Even in a Deluxe package (mini group) it doesn’t take away the other 15 groups going at one bcuz there are other tour companies going at the same time. Keep in mind, only clear bags and no selfie sticks. If you want to take videos you must get a permit from the Navajo Nation ahead of time, otherwise only still photos.

Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend Day Tour from Sedona

Antelope is a must

Our tour guide Kelly was phenomenal. Ask for her if you can. Being a former National Park ranger at the Grand Canyon, she had so much information about the area, animals, Native American history and what to expect at Antelope Canyon. We highly recommend this tour, a must if you are in the area of Page AZ. Antelope was an experience you will not forget. It was a one of a kind canyon.

45-minute Helicopter Flight Over the Grand Canyon from Tusayan, Arizona

Volker_S, Sept 2026

Maverick is the company to choose.

Maverick is right at the North Entrance to the Airport. The crew at thee desk and the pilot were very helpful, professional and courteous. The flight was smooth and the space in the helicopter was more than sufficient. the 45minute flight is the one I recommend everyone. I am severely handicapped and they took me (others don't), so Maverick is the company to choose.

Great Tour of Grand Canyon and surrounding areas

Our tour guide Charlie Torello made the trip! He had nice balance of information and kidding around. Plus felt we were getting to places which not so easy to do on your own. Not all tours do this. Charlie also ensured everyone got what they were looking for w or answers to their questions which is not easy as we had 10 people on this tour.

Great First Experience of the Grand Canyon National Park

Apparently Canyon Dave has been doing this a while, and it shows through his guides. We had Jordan and he was absolutely knowledgeable after only doing this job for a few months. This was our first time to the Grand Canyon and Jordan gave us the history going back billions of years as well as the layers of each rock and formation we saw in front of us. He shared numerous pamphlets with us so we could visualize things and it was great. It was only my husband and I on the tour, but I don't think that mattered to him; we still received the best service and tour possible. We enjoyed all his water and snacks (ice would be recommended for the future) and we were still able to eat lunch even during this trying time for the Canyon. We felt like Jordan was one of our own by the end of the day as we just talked about many other things are our way home. THANK you so much to Jordan and his great service.

It’s really one the best...

It’s really one the best ways to not just explore the canyon but surrounding sites and local areas. Also, with a guide as knowledgeable as our - Rasa- you’ll be able to learn about its history, formations and pretty cool facts about the canyon and it’s surrounding.

PRIVATE Antelope Canyon/Horseshoe Bend Experience

Well worth the trip

This tour was outstanding. It was just my daughter and I and our tour guide Miguel. He gave us a lot of useful information from Sedona, up through Oak Creek Canyon, on to Horseshoe Bend, and finally to Antelope CanyonX. Our tour guide in Canyon X, Madison, was very informative. She told us the history, answered our questions, and pointed out the best places to take photos. Miguel took many pictures of my daughter and I together. On the way back to Sedona, he explained much more about the area. The areas were breathtaking in their beauty.

Bird's eye view

This 13-viewing passenger plane will have a few bumps or dips, as expected, but it gives a great variety from straight Rim views. Request to be by one of the alternating, bigger rather than smaller windows if you aim to get lots of video or photos. The high up views of both Rims and views of the little river are worth the price and bumps, too.

Apache Trail and Dolly Steamboat Van Tour

Dolly steamboat and Apache Junction tour

Make sure to wear clothes that match the weather and comfy footwear because there is exploring to do outside the vehicle but so worth it. Also if you get Cynthia she is amazing and knowledgeable about anything Az. She even took time to help us find something else to do in Mesa after the tour. Above and beyond what was expected. Awesome person!

Don’t miss this one!

Wow! What an amazing experience. Keith, our driver, said we’d start off strangers and wind up friends. He was absolutely right. From pickup to drop off we had a great time. Each winery was more beautiful than the last. The tastings were generous at all locations. Lunch was delicious and thoughtfully served. Plenty of time to do some exploring at the winery’s and purchase a bottle (or two!) of your favorites
