Exceptional Tour Guide

Lisa_P, Aug 2025
The train experience was not what I expected. Staff was very friendly however our attendant talked for 2 1/2 hours while we were on the train, giving us a lecture on history. Our tour guide,Cat, for the Grand Canyon was amazing! The convenience of having someone pick you up, drive you through and into the experience, was worth the price in gold! But this was more than a convenience. She was kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable, not only of the Grand Canyon, but of the entire areas in Arizona. We felt that our experience was thorough and enjoyable! I would absolutely recommend visiting this area and the Grand Canyon, regardless of the current fire burning in the North end. The fires did not impact our vacation at all. Views were stunning. Cat shared information that you would not be able to get otherwise from the informational posts at each stop. I felt that she dove deep into the history of the surroundings that gave a us a better appreciation of the area.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Dear Marvelous Arizona Visitor: We can't thank you enough for letting people know that the Grand Canyon South Rim remains a remarkable site and ready for visitors. As expected the fire is not impacting our tours and guests. We are one of the few with pickup/drop off service.....thrilled to offer you this tour, time with Cat, and a once in a lifetime experience. We would love to see you again!

Grand Canyon tour and train ride

Wonderful experience! We had the best guide Andrea! Very knowledgeable! I learned so much about the Arizona area!

Amazing tour despite the train ride

Ben_H, May 2023
I had an amazing time with Sheldon on the grand canyon experience. He was very insightful and took us to some amazing spots to view the canyon. He knew how to keep everyone on track and had a ton of suggestions for other activities in the Sedona area. I would have given 4.4 starts if it were an option just bc the train ride didn't measure up to anyone in the tour expectations. I had a window seat but it was in-between two windows so I had an obstructed view. The seats were definitely"authentic" and refurbished to their original condition which translates to the most uncomfortable two hours. Especially for someone with back and neck problems. What happened after the one way train ride made up for the bad experience with the train. Also, FYI don't have the greasy tacos from the food court. Your stomach will thank me. If I could redo anything it would be to skip the train ride and just ride in the shuttle van. Sheldon and the rest of my tour group were pleasant and fun to spend the day with. I would take this tour again and highly recommend it to anyone. It's so much better when some else drives.

Fun!
