The Sedona day trip was really great. Our driver John was excellent. Our tour vehicle was first class. There was so much to see. Sedona is really a wondrous area. We were really impressed with Arizona Scenic Tours. John gave us options to see different things on the tour. We would really recommend this small group tour by Arizona Scenic Tours.

The trip is so great! Sedona offers scenic views of red rock formations, with an old village atmosphere, and a beautiful church built into the cliffs. We really enjoyed the trip because our guild was so friendly and patient.

A wonderful experience

Sherine_P, Apr 2026
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.

Fabulous Day Trip! Personalized and Customized to our Needs

Ellen_B, Mar 2026
Excellent experience. We had a private tour, and our driver was prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable. and provided us with a memorable day. One in our party was mobility challenged, and she went above and beyond to help make his day as easy as possible. Our stops were customized to our wants, interests, and mobility needs. Well worth the money. This tour will absolutely not disappoint. And of course, Sedona is amazing and a Bucket List "must see." Thanks very much! I recommend this tour without any reservations.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Great to hear! Thanks so much for choosing us for your tour. Glad to hear that it went well for you! It is difficult for mobility challenged guests at times, but we do our best to make sure they enjoy the scenery here as easily as possible! Safe travels.....

Thank you Will had a Fantastic Day!!

joan_h, Feb 2026
Will, our travel guide was the best, he told about things on the ride all the way to Sedona, our first stop was Montezuma castle he explain many details about it, next was Bell rock, amazing views, then Sedona for 2 hours, for us not enough time, but we will be making a return trip. Then Chapel of the Holy Cross, again amazing views of the red rocks and what a beautiful place. From telling us about the red rocks to the 350 year old catus this was and is an amazing tour to take. Highly recommend it. To be driven and told the stories of the area and the sites you are visiting is part of the adventure to know about this area. And to not have to nativagate the driving and parking, and to be dropped off and picked up is a huge bonus. Thank you Will for a fantastic day. Joan and Mona

Thanks for touring with us! Glad that you enjoyed it!

Exceptional experience!

Thulinh, Oct 2025
Will was an excellent guide who provided us with plenty of information during the trip and at all the places that we visited. It was very easy for us to make arrangements for the pick-up at the resort where we stayed. The trip allowed us to visit 2 sacred landmarks: the Chapel of the Holy Cross and the Buddhist Center Amitabha Stupa, even though the buddhist center was not mentionned in the tour itinerary. My husband highly recommend any tour with Arizona Scenic Tours, and we 'd like to extend our special thanks to the guide Will.

Wonderful tour of Sedona

Jennifer_O, May 2025
From the time of booking Steve called right away to help plan our tour in personalized way. Throughout the process the communication was topnotch. On the day of our tour, Jon our guide, arrived early in a spotlessly clean and well stocked (phone charges, drinks, etc.) van. Jon was extremely professional, personable and knowledgeable. Jon made changes on our itinerary throughout the day based on weather and traffic to ensure we maximized our time in Sedona. He provided a quality and custom experience that my 16 year old son and I enjoyed immensely and will never forget! We highly recommend this tour.

Sedona vistas

Christine_K, Mar 2025

Our day trip to Sedona from Scottsdale was a fun, interesting, perfect way to spend a Saturday on a short trip to Scottsdale! Our guide, Jon, was interesting, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We were lucky to have him!

Time well spent

Robert_H, Jan 2025
The moment we got in the car our tour guide/driver went out of his way to please us. He kept us safe, was extremely knowledgeable and flexible from beginning to end. We saw all the sights. The Chapel of the Holy Cross was amazing and so was the hike to Bell Rock.

Sedona - Phoenix day trip

Glenn_F, Nov 2024
Took this tour with Brandon on 11/1/24. Brandon was a phenomenal guide and incredibly knowledgeable about the individual sites and Phoenix and Sedona. Made for an incredible experience.

Great photos. Stunning landscapes.

Bradley_S, Oct 2024
Beautiful part of the country. So glad we visited! We did Montezuma Castle, chapel of the holy cross, bell rock, Tlaquepaque shopping, uptown Sedona and a winery. Took many great photos but Castle was a bit underwhelming as you can’t get too close. Views from the Chapel were terrific. Sedona is a nice town where we picked up some gifts and had a nice lunch. Winery was fair; their wine was lackluster. They had some live music but we were so exhausted by the end of the trip we didn’t stay too long to enjoy it. Overall driver was good but would have liked a bit more guiding to go along with the driving.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Thanks very much for the review. Glad that you enjoyed the tour. Sedona is definitely amazing to see. The Castle is a very unique spot and many guests enjoy it, as it may be their only experience with a Native American ruin. We appreciate the feedback about your guide. On our day trips we try to practice a good mix of hands on guiding along with giving our guests time on their own, but they are always open to questions and requests on the spot, to spend more time with our guests. Thanks for touring!

Liked it

Darian was wonderful company...a very good trip! Sedona is nice although a Lil hot at this time of the year ..but overall enjoyable

Can’t say enough good things

Kelly_H, Oct 2024
Fantastic experience and guide. We learned all about the area and saw so many things we wouldn’t have known about on our own. Extremely friendly, customer focused guide that wanted us to see things we wanted to see. Will definitely contact Eddie when we make another trip to AZ!
