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
Zane was very knowledgeable and funny. My husband and I had a great time. Everything was good. We had plenty of time to shop as well.
We originally did this tour last year through another company but the weather put a damper on our tour. This year was better! Our group first went to Montezuma Castle, and then we toured Sedona a bit. The Red Rocks are beautiful when the weather is good. We ended the day in Jerome. Our guide, Jeff, also showed us some scenic views so we appreciated that! Definitely a must-do!
We had a brilliant time. It was helped by reading the information given before going, like take some warm clothing with you as it could be chilly.
It was a wonderful day trip. Frank was incredibly kind and made sure we had the best possible experience.
Frank was an amazing tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Arizona, the native plants, the land formations, restaurants, and just about everything related to our tour.
Montezuma's Castle was fascinating, Sedona - simply gorgeous, the Chapel of the Holy Cross - breathtaking, and Jerome at the top of the mountain - quaint with incredible views!
We all enjoyed the entire tour and felt completely safe with Frank behind the wheel.
A must do if you are visiting the Phoenix area.
It’s amazing journey and breathtaking experience in sedona, jerome and other places. We went to see the Montezuma castle and discovered the way ancient civilisation used to live and castle is testament to it. Amazing place
Had a good time and I got some interesting facts about the places we visited. Sedona is a cool place, I’ll come back in the future
Awe inspiring experience; such a unexpected landscape in our country; fudge recipe from MacInawe Michigan, indigenous stories of their way of life n ingenious manner of housing in the cliffs.
Loved the tour! Frank, our guide was absolutely phenomenal. An all day event full of fun sites to see. A must do when you come to Phoenix.
The red rocks, the chapel, montezuma's Castle in that order. Guide was terrific. A stop at a desert side bar to learn about flora was the best
All of Sedona was beautiful. We were on a pretty tight timeline but for the most part had adequate time in each area to explore and take plenty of pictures.
Han was very knowledgeable on lots of historical events and as a high school teacher I really appreciated that! He also helped us all get the perfect pics to save for our memories. Our group was perfect and we all had an amazing time!
Montezuma is an amazing side to see, how back in the days people survived. Jerome was also great, a really sharing little town.
We met our tour guide, Zane when he picked us up at our hotel. We were both a few minutes early. We headed to our first stop, Montezuma Castle. Zane kept the drive from being boring with his humor and information.
When we got there, he guided us through the park. He presented a lot of interesting facts and pointed out some good picture opportunities.
Then off to Bell Rock and Sedona. We had some wonderful views and picture taking opportunities at Bell Rock and in Sedona had a nice lunch and my wife did some shopping.
Jerome was next. A short ride and we were there. What a wonderful little ghost town.
More magnificent views and again some great shopping. A great way to end the tour.
The ride back was pleasant and uneventful
I recommend our guide Zane, and this trip. However, I can’t give this trip 5 stars, only 4. Let me explain why.
The sound system in our vehicle was not satisfactory. I sat in the back and had trouble hearing our guide. Even after turning it up, it still was not sufficient to hear everything he said in the back.
Also, the seating was tight and somewhat uncomfortable. There were 10 of us plus our guide. The ad says we will be in a 15 passenger van with no more than 10 tourists.
We had 10 tourists but I could only count 13 seats. The back had a bench type of seat for four with two of those directly behind the seats in front. The leg room was basically nonexistent
To sum it up, the sights were beautiful, the guide was great. I recommend the tour if you can avoid the back seats.
I booked this tour for my mother and myself and we enjoyed everything. We were picked up by our friendly knowledgeable tour guide, Han at the hotel and taken on a great adventure across AZ. Going to Sedona and seeing vortex areas were some of the highlights for me. Jerome was really interesting too. Loved being able to buy from local artists. Really enjoyed hearing the history of the area as well. Mom & I enjoyed the trip and I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.
The sights were awesome, and our driver/guide, Kim was excellent! She showed us everything, gave us the background details and even took lots of photos of us!! Very enjoyable trip!
Great guide and fun day.
The van needs a little maintenance as it shook in the back end at higher speeds.
We enjoyed this tour very much. Our guide Patrick was very knowledgeable and very accommodating. I had a sprained back and he stopped the van as close to all the venues
so I didn't have to walk too far. I would recommend this tour. It exceeded our expectations.
This was a well curated tour! Mr.Frank is such a wealth of knowledge! He gave photo lessons too! I thoroughly enjoyed and grateful to experience the natures of the world!
I had a great time. It was a lovely tour of Sedona and Jerome and the castle. I highly recommend this tour. Zane was great.
Tour guide Chris was extremely knowledgeable. Places that we visited were interesting and now we know more about Arizona
Sedona and it’s beauty and the drive up and back to Phoenix as the dessert transforms in multiple phases. Chris our driver provided so much great information. Didn’t know Montezuma Castle existed so fun to see . Spending time in the quirky town of Jerome and then driving home over the mountain and seeing its beauty was great
Visiting Sedonna and learning the history of the area! The tour was led by Han and he did a great job! Well paced your!
We had a great time. Pick up and return right at the resort. Kim was so knowledgeable and able to get us from place to place in a timely fashion. She took our picture for us, offered suggestions of places to eat and shop. We much appreciated her and the opportunity to see Arizona’s treasures without the stress and worry if driving ourselves.
Sedona and Jerome were absolutely awesome! The food was great and the sights were amazing. We can’t wait to come back and visit again next year!
We all had a great time best part was Kim our guide - different experience s in different areas was adventurous
My favorite part of the trip was seeing Sedona. It was such a cute town and I loved that I asked our tour guide (Kim) for recommendations and she took me to different areas and stores and showed me around the cute town. There was a lot to see and explore with limited time and she answered all my questions and took me to the best places!!
Fue muy interesante apreciar los paisajes del desierto con sus rocas rojas incluido los cactus gigantes, a pesar que están padeciendo debido a la sequía que está aquejando en los últimos meses o años quizá. La guía Kim fue muy amable, paciente y muy atenta a las necesidades de los integrantes del grupo. En general, fue una agradable experiencia. La única dificultad que sorteamos fue la comunicación por teléfono por cuanto el nuestro no era de los Estados Unidos y es algo que las agencias turísticas podrían tomar en cuenta para turistas de otros países aunque el uso del email fue oportuno en algunas ocasiones.
It was very interesting to appreciate the landscapes of the desert with its red rocks, including the giant cacti, even though they are suffering due to the drought that has been afflicting them in recent months or perhaps years. The guide Kim was very kind, patient and very attentive to the needs of the group members. Overall it was a nice experience. The only difficulty we overcame was communication by phone since ours was not from the United States and it is something that tourist agencies could take into account for tourists from other countries, although the use of email was opportune on some occasions.
This was a great tour with Frank. He gave us so much information. He was very easy to talk to and answered questions and helped us take great pictures!
