It was our first time in Sedona and great to have a guide who knew the trails and brought us to a few key areas including oak creek. Our guide Matt picked us up at the airbnb we stayed at for a private tour. Not only did he help us with the hike but discussed the history and geological facts about Sedona. I highly recommend this tour!

Fabulous Morning in Sedona!

Margaret_C, May 2026

Our guide, Andrea, was wonderful - well versed on the history of the area and focused her conversation on our interests and curiosities. She clearly has a love and respect for this area and was a perfect match for us. We would highly recommend this tour.

Fun and Relaxing Hike

Great chance to spend some time in nature with a low impact hike and to reset. Andrea was wonderful.

Excellent guided hike....

Excellent guided hike. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about local flora and fauna; geology; and the history of Sedona.

Awesome Sedona Cathedral Hiking Tour!

Matt was awesome! Loved the tour provided by Sedona Philosophy. We were greeted at our hotel and toured the Cathedral hiking trail and also went all the way down to the creek. A snack and drink were provided to keep us hydrated. Matt shared his knowledge of the area as well as the vegetation during our hike. Would definitely do a guided tour again. Thank you, Matt!

Thank you so much for your kind review—it was a pleasure to guide you on your first visit to Sedona! I’m glad we were able to explore some beautiful spots together, including Oak Creek. It means a lot that you chose a private tour as part of your time here. I always enjoy helping guests connect not just with the landscape, but with the stories and forces that have shaped it. Wishing you many more memorable adventures!
