Great day spent with Frank on the tour!
My husband Don surprised my girlfriends and I with this excursion. It was the perfect amount of time for the sights we saw. Our guide Frank Salle, is a very interesting person to spend the day with. He uses his knowledge and passion for Arizona to ensure you have a terrific experience. I have been to AZ many times, and learned a lot of things I never knew before. He pointed out the old stage coach trail that I passed many times never knowing about its history. Talked about all the dessert plants, and the history of all the places we visited. He even showed us how to take great panoramic photos with our phones. He definitely enjoys what he is doing and didn’t rush the stops at all. I would definitely ask for him on our next adventure! - Denise P

Great Tour!!!
Naala was nothing short of amazing! Her knowledge of the regions we’ve travel to were top tier. She made sure we were comfortable and made the long ride enjoyable. She was even kind enough to stop at an additional popular spot for us to take pictures. I highly recommend this tour.

Very fun
I was a little nervous to do this, but it was so much fun. Our guide, Angie, was great. I totally trusted her as she handled the terrain. She was funny and had a lot of interesting information and stories about the area. I am so glad my son suggested doing this!

Wonderful tour
Enjoyed every minute! Naala was very informative with historical information that she shared during the tour . Naala pointing out the vegetation, land scapes along the way to the Grand Canyon. The tour was 12.5 hours but the day flew by ! Worth every penny !

This was a fun and...
This was a fun and informative trip. Most all of the travelers on our trip would have preferred more time at Tortilla Flats and Goldfield Ghost Town and less at the Elvis Chapel and Museum area. We barely had time to get some food and no time to explore either place. The Dolly Steamboat was a fun and relaxing experience and the Captain was quite entertaining. Our driver gave us lots on historical facts and flora and fauna information.

A wonderful experience
We loved our tour so much! John is such a gem as a tour guide, my friend and I had a blast, he was so knowledgeable about not only the landscape but the history of the area, and we just found ourselves chatting it up with him for the entire tour.
The car was super comfortable - we appreciated all of the hydration, the car was comfortable and very clean, and John has good taste in music!
We’ll definitely be using them for any future tour anytime we’re back in Phoenix/Sedona. Fantastic experience.

This tour was beyond...
This tour was beyond anything I imagined! Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend are absolutely breathtaking on their own, but what truly made the day unforgettable was our tour guide, Mark. From the moment we hopped on the bus, he set the tone with his warm personality, fun sense of humor, and genuinely impressive knowledge of the area. Lovely family owned business. Highly recommend.

Breath taking
This is hands-down, the best tour agency that you can go through. The amount of knowledge that our tour guide John had was absolutely outstanding. He went above and beyond any expectation me and my fiancé had. I plan on bringing our children back for a trip with John. The van was impeccable. He was very attentive to any in every need me and her had 10 out of 10 recommended.

Excellent day trip
Sam was really good as a guide and driver. Very informative and friendly. The tour was in general very intereating and well organised, the van was comfortable. The pick up and drop off could have been better arranged from the company as it took an hour to pick up everyone and an hour to drop off, and for me at least I had to travel another 15 minutes by uber or 40 min by tram to get to the meeting point as opposed to others who were picked up from their hotel. I think it would have been better if we were all told to meet up at one place and then drive off from there, therefore not having to start off the tour too early for some and driving me around the whole of Phoenix, Scodsdale and Tempe. Other than that all was great.

A Wonderful Experience
This was a last minute booking and I am so glad I did. Our guide Leonardo made a long day enjoyable with his stories, knowledge and passion for the Sedona area and the Grand Canyon. It made for a memorable day and we would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to take it. Thank you Leonardo.

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!

Inexpensive and easy alternative to group tours
This was the first time trying a self guided tour. It was a great way to see all the sites of Sedona at our own pace without all the complicated coordination and time consuming planning. It was easy to follow, highlighted some incredible stops, and provided fun facts and history of the area. The gps accurately located our vehicle wherever we were and provided excellent directions, offered timely suggestions for breaks, food, shopping and more. This self guided tour is a wonderful, inexpensive alternative for anyone who doesn’t like the expense and waiting around for others associated with larger group tours.
